Ok it is time for some more pictures of my birds

This is my black English Orpington trio Henry, Henrietta and Gertrude
The hens will be 9 months old in a couple of weeks and the rooster I believe is around the same age.
One hen is still not laying but I know she is getting closer because looking back at pics from a couple weeks ago her comb has definitely gotten bigger and redder
I made the pics small do they would not take up as much room...you can still click on them to make them bigger.
I could not get good pics of the hens..they were too busy eating grass and snow


the trio



look at that "hair flip" LOL


he is really trying to show off!!!

he can really kick that leg out there


Aww look how cute they are all staying together


he has grown so much in the last few weeks!


showing off his wattles too


Look at that size difference...that is a full grown red sex-link hen beside of him


He loves to pose for the camera!

Ok just for you Dee.. lol

All but the bigger black baby marked in the photos were hatched early this morning.

Do women's pupils dilate when they see chicks like they do when they see babies? They are so round. Love them.

All babies need some sort of a momma, I think. Grats, Momma!

Quick pic of my boy Harry. Someone relieved him of the feathers in the back of his neck so he looks a little ewe necked lol but he's not.

And his sister Cleo

They are just now about 4 months old.
