3 weeks ago I bought 2 showgirl chicks from a breeder. They both looked about the same age, maybe a week apart.The black is named skeksis and the little splash is Lola. Lola was the smallest with Skeksis being a little bigger as chicks sometimes are. The rest of the chicks were the same size as Skeksis. I didn't ask how old they were, just if they needed to be under a heat lamp at night and the breeder said they were past that stage. Now showgirls I beleive are bantams anyway so Ok I figured 4 weeks old, but in Texas it's so hot at night, maybe they could have been younger. Anyway Skeksis is growing and Lola doesn't really look any bigger than when we brought her home. It's been 3 weeks. Skeksis makes her look like she is shrinking. They have been living in my bathroom because it's so hot I'm scared Lola can't take the heat. Here are some pics. Your thoughts. I couldn't find a showgirl thread.

I put them outside for fresh air when at cooler times in the day
