Do you have pix of that chick now?

No, I will have to try and get some tomorrow. He is only about 3 weeks old now, so he is still small.

Please do! I am not a big fan of Paint but I love Showgirls.

Look at my baby now! "She" is getting bigger spots and I can see one little black wing feather growing in.

Here is two of my showgirl babies that I think are turning out nicely.

Showgirl #1

Showgirl #2 (Sorry, these are a little blurry, I was chasing this one around the coop)

Here is a pic of this one, but it's not much older. So, not a whole lot of change yet.

Chickendales, I talked to the other guys and they said at 5-6 weeks old a min of 6 would have to be shipped together. So, you might want to wait until they are a bit older and then I can ship less.

Wow I am impressed! They look great.

Keep up the good work. I was gonna try to do paint Showgirls back before everyone jumped on the boat not, because I like paint but because I like the odd and Showgirls are odd and so are the paint so 2 odds mixed together was perfect. Right now my main focus would be to get Showgirls accepted as a breed not a variety of silkies.

Thank you very much

I work a lot on my showgirls because they are my absolute favorite. I think 2 odds made a good end result!
