My kids are 5 weeks old and their feathers are coming in nicely. I think they will be beauties. It's looking like 2 of the 5 might be boys. This is Shylo & Ollie. I hope their eggs will be as pretty as they are. I may keep one of the boys but it will be difficult giving one up.

Am I seeing lots of blue chicks or is that just the lighting? I am looking forward to my next hatch, should be 50% blue (finally have a blue cockerel added to the flock, let's hope he does his duty!)
