I don't know what is going on here .... I had to upload this picture 5 times before it completed the process. I will try the others later. Anyway ......

Here are the 3 that I hatched. I told them to stand up tall and proud.

I sat them in the grass and they stood still like they were petrified.

Cheryl .....

Congratulations on your hatch!

Kathy, the chick in the first picture, are you already thinking he's a boy? - Look at that comb!

Congrats Cheryl. Keep us posted.

Kathy - they are so, so cute. I love the picture of all three of them looking at hte camera...that is a great shot !! That is definitely a little cockerel with his manly chest all puffed out !! Can't tell enough by the other pictures to tell what the other 2 are.

Kathy- they look great- and I think that is a little boy, too. Hope your other two are girls. All dark blue?
You couldn't have asked for a better "cute" picture than the one where all three are standing at attention. "Yes, Ma'am, Mama"!!

Here is one more picture ....

And the older ones:

Kathy- the girl in the forefront in the 4th picture down has the most BEAUTIFUL face- the blues look like they are going to have wonderful lacing. And I love the black one in the front of the first picture. I don't know if that curve in the neck is something one wants to see, but it is very elegant.

Aaawww. So sorry!!

. Congrats on the others though. It's so hard when they make it that far then die. Just bad!!

Cheryl, I am so sorry you lost the little one, and a splash, too!
Can you post pics of the others? I love chickie pics.
