Sprinkles looks like she’s re-evaluating her decision to go broody.

My 80s hair band hatched yesterday!

The Spitzhauben eggs came from @homeschoolin momma

Sweet chicken homestead is a legitimate place! I just had my 10 chicks get shipped off yesterday for my location Nine chamois and one gold! I cropped out the information on the card as it has my information on it. They should be arriving tomorrow morning and I thankfully know someone who opens up the post office early and can get the chicks home faster.

My chicks arrived today! Sadly one chamois was DOA but the rest seem to be doing very well and are running around, eating, and drinking.
I plan on posting every other week updates on their growth!

I am pretty sure these two are little cockerels, their little horns are HUGE compared to my other chicks! They aren’t even three weeks old yet either!
I like the second chick’s (green band) comb way more than the one in the first photo (blue band) as it is a much nicer V shape. These two don’t have the most cavernous nostrils but they still are quite cute! I am really interested to see how they look as they age!

I also used a wet paper towel to push back their downy feathers to get a better photo of their combs

They are just 3 weeks old now! 1 is for certain a cockerel and another I am hesitant to say but i am pretty sure. First photo is of suspect’s wattles and the second photo is of my for sure cockerel.

Wow. Your boys are maturing fast. My 7 week olds don’t have any signs. Normally I can’t guess until around 8 weeks and feel more confident at 10-12 weeks
