Thought I would update.The chicks are now play fighting,witnessed their first little fight this morning.What surprised me is the mother also plays with them!Neevr heard it witnessed that before.

It's adorable. I feel bad for the hen when the chicks peck at her eyes though.

Though I would update.The chciks are doing great,Defiantly have atelast two roosters,both large fowl.It made an attempt to fight the other mother hen,and generally roosters seem to be the ones to puff out and defend themselves.Two if the large fowl Defiantly have personalities of a male.The black bantam could also possibly be a male,that would make thre males and two hens.They are very large now,getting much larger than the two bantam chciks and are already making it difficult to sit under their mother,good thing is warm out.

Here is fat Albert.Regarfless if hen,which I’m pretty for sure it is a male,huge comb,and thick,huge legs and feet,the name is remaining fat Albert.

its hard to to see his comb,but it is very thick as well.

Also suspect this is male.Very weird about being touched and is huge just like his daddy.

Very nice looking chicks! Thanks the update

Another update.All chicks are doing great other than the fact fat Albert and the other suspected rooster are bullying the other chicks.They chase and attack them,and Cochins have a sweet disposition so their smaller older and very scared.

 

[TheTwoRoos]

Two possible roosters.Defiantly have a males appetite and attitude.
