A couple have more yellow on their chests


I agree with Mini, the single SDW does look female. I think all 3 do, but also on my phone, so can't be sure. Will look again tomorrow on the big monitor.

I don't have BBs so I'm not at all sure on them, but the SDWs usually the sharper lines are females, and nice eyeliner. Males lines are usually blurry and lighter than the females. Watch the shoulder area, top of the chest as color moves around under the neck (kinda like a shawl). If it's black, it's a male, peachy/salmon color is female. That usually happens before comb development in them.

All beautiful chicks though!!


Not a bird, but here's my new addition today:

He's so tiny, I haven't had a reptile this small since my bearded dragon was a baby. He's eating really well though so he won't stay small for long!


Too cute!

Got ya covered! :thumbsup

I just had a call duckling die in my hands. :hit

Stopped at home after work, they all seemed fine. It was warm, so I turned off the heat lamp for a couple hours while I went to Rural King. Came home, took care of chores, all the ducklings were playing around, etc. I turned the heater back on.

Peeked in a bit later and noticed this one laying alone. Reached in to get her and she didn't run like the rest. Brought her inside and held her for a couple hours, and she died. I assume she got cold, or possibly ate some shavings, or something odd like that. I couldn't get her to drink or anything, she just wanted to snuggle in my neck.

I just checked the rest and they aren't even under the lamp, and are moving about, so I don't think they are cold at all.
