Sunnyside Rainbow Eggers Thread! *chick pics*

[RainbowHen]

Since I can't find anyone else with these birds from my local hatchery I decided to start a thread for them. I had a wonderful experience getting 6 pullets a week ago from Sunnyside Hatchery. They were very responsive to emails. Very friendly. Let me buy an additional chick at the last second when I picked up my original 5 at the hatchery. 5 are Sunnyside Rainbow Eggers and one is a RIR(Sage). They are very pretty. No beards or muffs. I'll use this thread to provide updates as they get older. Anyone have this variety?

Since it is cold and dreary with a possiblity of rain today the girls don't get their daily field trip in the run. They are being WILD I got them their first Ultrakibble and mealworm snackies so that they can scratch around and keep busy.

They are so cute. I love the names you chose for them. Nice theme in your coop. They are the Spice Chicks.

Girls are one month old! This is cause for a celebration!

You sure a diff bird didn’t lay those? Such a difference in color, lol.

Most definitely 2 girls were laying at that time I just didn't know it!

Who all’s laying?

So far Rosemary (light blue/green), Basil (brown/khaki), and Thyme (green) ☺ I think the rest will most likely wait until spring, but we will see! 10 degrees today. Most days we get 2-3 eggs. Sometimes just 1. I absolutely love seeing the colors together.

You stole my idea! I have Pepper, Salt, Nutmeg, and Vanilla. I did it first, mine are 15 weeks!
