Two weeks old already!

[Gembeag]

Our four red red sex links are two weeks d already. I can't believe how quickly they are growing and changing. So many feathers coming through- you can almost see them growing. They are just gorgeous and as a chicken newbie, I am besotted!

Cute, my golden sex links are the same age.

Aren't they just gorgeous? Do you have any advice on the whole 'grit' thing?

My 12 red sex links that are 9 weeks today you can still see them changing everyday.

Mine are outside, so their grit comes from the dirt, litter, and pea gravel (bottom scrapings, fine pieces). You can get chick grit but I would wait until three weeks before offering grit and treats in the brooder.

Comes in fast when they do. I would check on mine multiple times a day and they would change each time I looked at them. There was only a couple I could name early On. The rest are getting names now since I can start telling them apart. There is one that I have named Sriracha. She is the fiesty one and wants things her way. Name fits her well. She is the most pretty feathered one. I will take a pic of her.

This is Sriracha, the fiesty and fire tempered when she wants to be. Her feather pattern I think is so beautiful.
