Here they are!

The story:
Goose was one of two remaining eggs in my incubator, for a class hatch. 4 eggs were infertile. I had to take my incubator home from the school for the holidays. Goose hatched on day 19 of incubation at my house. Little Goose was lonely, and I had a bad feeling about the other egg so I contacted a local farm to ask what their youngest chicks were. Around 4 days old.
The next day (day 21) the other egg pipped, but I wasn't sure about it and I left to buy 2 chicks from the farm. I was worried that the older ones would bully little goose. After I returned home, the pipped chick died. I introduced Goose to Bucky and Oreo and they bonded instantly. Oreo and Bucky were dirty and tired, so I cleaned them and let them settle in the brooder.

Today they are happy and clean, and Goose loves to sleep underneath the older babies.

This thread is for updates, growth pics, and maybe some breed and gender guesses (I think Bucky is a brahma!)

Goose
The little excited one who loves to snuggle up and annoy the other chicks by riding on them. Lots of personality in a tiny fluffball.

Bucky
The runt of the group. Very calm and sleepy

Oreo
The mama of the group. She ties the gang together. She has the world's best beak.
