Oh they are darling!! Does the one with the mask have curled toes or is it just how she is standing? All in all, they are adorable.
I forgot to tell you that you can take the leg bands off if you want

I just put my eggs in lockdown this morning! So excited! I can't believe how quickly time flies. All 4 EE's look good except one LB egg, I think it may have quit. I have one other EE egg in there courtesy of the local I got my Marans and Welsummer eggs from. It is crossed with a Wellie so should end up being an olive egger if a pullet. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I need more hens. BTW, my black cockeral from RRH is starting to get some gold color around his neck and on his wings. He is beautiful. I will get pics in the next week or two after he has a chance to get more color in there. My Goldilocks pullet is still pure white and the 'Big Daddy' pullet is like a butterscotch or caramel color, and as you predicted, most of the spots on her feathers are gone. Anyways, Saturday is my hatch date so ... !!!

Updated 7 week old pictures of my EE pullet Munk. She is so sweet, and I am glad I ended up with her. She get's along well with my Barred Rock pullet, Joon, and doesn't mind the BR being "head hen".

Also, does anybody have any idea what she *may* look like grown? How much do they change in color and pattern from 7 weeks to adult feathers? Any input = helpful.
