That's funny, that chick wants a larger area to spread it's wings! I've had some get up on top of the water container, or the feeder and sit there, then next thing I know, one is sitting on the edge of the tub. Have to put an extra lid I have over that end.
You aren't really interested in another black are you. This one is so tiny. I know it isn't a bantam, unless the bantam that laid that egg is big...big.
The blue, or splash looks girly to me, but I guess they are hard to sex at this age, and even with the lavender's ages that we have now. I posted in a couple of different places I thought folks would know. Three months to see the comb to really start developing, then the feathers, both hackle and saddle. So, I don't know what to tell you. I looked at the feathers starting to show up already, and they look blue, not seeing any dark spots..yet.
Could be a blue. She's pretty. Fluffy, with the slight color of yellow on the sides like the lavenders had. She is a lot lighter though, that's why I'm thinking this is a splash. Not sure yet.
I have three eggs pipped. The last one that has pipped is quite green. One of the blues has really gotten started on it. I should have a few babies by morning. I will bring a few babies for you to look at. I will have a warmer in there, they will be fine. I just want you to get what you want. Do you want me to bring the tiny little black one? A special baby for sure.
Do you have an idea as to when you will be able to be at Winco? Just a guess time wise?
Talk later. Will update if a baby hatches soon.)

I am excited to see my new babies.
