I'll take new pictures tomorrow. Every morning when I pick each of them up to check for pasty butt I tell them how pretty their new feathers are. Some have more tail feathers than others but they're so cute!
I put some forked sticks in the cage so they could perch on them. I have a window in the barn where the brooder is and I like to peek in from time to time. A couple of days ago I peeked in and one of the babies was sitting on the perch with her head hanging limply. I thought OMG 😲 one has died...
I wish your husband a speedy recovery. I'm recovering from knee replacement surgery myself. It was certainly a struggle to get ready but it's been worth it.
