There were 8 I believe, I took 2.

Just wanted to know as chicks can get very lonely.

i have a flock of 8, 2 are only 4 weeks, then there are these two I’m a beginner but I’ve tried to be very deligent in keeping a happy flock We try to use the buddy system over here

So you have all the chicks that were dropped off or just this one?

Give it some of those bananas in the background, chickens go mad for bananas.

Really??? Even that small? Love learning new ideas for my feathered friends!

Gorgeous chick, very likely a blue cochin as someone else mentioned what is the other chick you took?

too young for gender guesses

I had read something about wing sexing? I’m am 100% a beginner so that’s why I posted the question, never hurts to ask, right? I’ve had a few people say cochin, excuse any double posts I’m trying to get any and all feedback. I picked two From a box of 8 or so m, that we’re dropped at a shelter. They all looked different! I have no idea the crosses or breed. Just happy to have the two I have!

yeah i agree blue cochin (chick in my avatar is a blue cochin mutt. )
What color are the legs of the other chick and how many toes?

eta: sexing by wing growth is really not that dependable it works with some specific breeds of chickens, or if you intentionally breed 2 birds one with a faster feather growth and the other with slower to get the effect. (i tried this actually with cochins. noted how the first ones feathers came in and then picked cochin chicks to buy based on that. it didn't work. Biggest indicators on chicks for gender will be comb and wattles getting bigger (still chick sized lol) and turning pink.
