Welcome!
I have new pictures to post for everyone.
This is One Eyed Bandit, aka Bandit. This little one somehow managed to get in the pen next door when he was about a week old. Next door live the turkeys and they didn't like Bandit. He got beat up a little bit, had a cut by his tail feathers and an eye injury. The cut healed up very nicely but looks like he lost his vision in his right eye.I still don't know how he was able to get in with the turkeys. I haven't been able to find a crack or a hole ANYWHERE in between the pens... Smart little guy.
Well. Because he had so much handling when I was caring for him after the turkey attack, he's the friendliest chick out of all my chickens. He'll let you pick him up and hold him and he just sort of hangs out. I love it! I wish they were all like Bandit. lol
Then we had a little snack.
This little lady had a good drink of water. I'm pretty sure she's a little lady. Certainly keeping my fingers crossed.
And this young man! I'll be keeping him. My favorite rooster Curly is going to have some competition when this guy grows up. I haven't named him yet. Any suggestions?
So cute.
And the only buff I have. Can't figure out if it's a boy or a girl. So far all the chicks are looking like girls except for the two splashes. But they're only 10 weeks old so I could still be wrong. I don't know if I can be so lucky to only have 2 cockerels?
Thanks everyone!
All my chicks are out of Catdance eggs, so thanks to Karen I have this nice little splash boy.
I like the name Fritz. I'll definitely consider that one. And I do like Moe and Larry also but can't have another Moe. The original 2 chicks I ever had were Curly and Mo. Mo turned out to be a hen, so she was just Mo. lol And Larry...I have a friend named Larry. He's a nut. Can't name my nice little splash chick after that one.
Why is naming animals so hard??
Good luck! _Pam
Mine have been outside a lot. They are kinda piggy now and in middle of molt.

Yeah, I'm probably going to have to spend some hours on some of those name websites so I can name all my chicks. I like to name everything. Even my four cats have at least 3 names each.Hey! Pretty chooks. Was gonna say- I used to load adoptable pets for the animal shelter in our town. I had to come up with a LOT of names. There are a lot of sites on the 'net to name them (had my favorite marked, on my last computer, lost it). Anyway, you can look for names that have to do with water, surfing, etc (for Splash) or you can look up color names, etc. Even baby names list are fun. I get a pen and paper and stay on them for hrs!
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
