On second thought, listen to Dan. Don't listen to me- I'm just a breed babbler who doesn't know much. XD

You're better at chicks than I.

Well, it's been almost a month since the last outbreak....
Just seeing you post that link sent tingling apprehension up the back of my neck.

Almost. It's getting hot here, 80s and 90s, that doesn't do well much above 80 (so I've been told) so it should start dying off now. Maybe they'll lift it in a month or two

The AI pathogen goes dormant around 85'F/dies past 95'F...

Sweet!!

The black one looks kinda like a magpie. Is the other spotted? Or just yellow with a brownish face?

Awesome!!! Yeah. It doesn't have any spots, just the brownish face.

Lol they are still so little, you never know! I bet you do know a lot!

It's currently 85F it's not supposed to get lower than 83 in the next ten days and as high as 90.

Ok. I'm gonna guess Pekin on that one then, I've hatched quite a few Pekins with brown faces, my parent stock had brown faced too. It could be a runner but the stance looks wrong.

I'm going to give my two bits here and say definitely not Runners. I've raised three Runners from ducklings, and their upright posture is noticeable even as ducklings...

Awesome!!! I like pekins and runners, so either one is fine with me!!!!
