The chicks is 2.5 weeks old, has been on medicated starter and vitamin water. Nothing is running from the nostrils or eyes and stool is normal. Bird continually gasps or gags, occasionally coughing. Bird is not as active, but still moving head. She has been outside twice.

I know I'm pushing a smidge early, but at five weeks they are practically fully feathered. 1, bright comb and wattles. Available parents means this little silver laced Wyandotte has to be a boy. I think I heard him crow today.2, inconclusive, pale comb but red leakage. I can never figure this...

My friend who doesn't have a byc account wanted to know what Duck is. Duck is almost six weeks old and an Easter egger.

Five weeks old

Three weeks Comb is still orangey at the tips

I know I've posted pictures on other threads trying to figure out their colors, but this thread will be for watching their feather development in the hopes that it might help someone else figure out what their EEs could look like. I know EEs come in all sorts of colors in spite of chick down...

I know they're young, but the length of the beak is worrying. What experiences have you had with beak size in chicks?

Really odd pattern. It appears to be inverse lacing. Is this penciling? Also, is it weird that it's blue?

Here is 1. Muff or cheek fluff. Here is two who I'm very sure has muffs. Would you say even a beard? And finally, are these pins coming in silver laced?

Are there any clues to whether a blue laced red wyandotte is male or female at 1-2 weeks? I want to make sure I'm taking home hens if I can.

Hurray! Better pictures tomorrow. I think I see some Blrw!

Any idea what this pattern would be called?

Results of the hatch will come later today. Here are the contenders.

I was looking back at some old photos from when I used to have chickens and upon further inspection, I'm not exactly sure what breed they actually are. My aunt had given me some eggs to hatch back then and said that they would be Barred Rocks. The chicks father, Petey, I remember being a pure...

I understand how these genetics work, I'm just curious how they apply to non solid colored Wyandottes. When we talk about blue, splash, and black in terms of lacing, are we only talking about BLRW? Do these genetics also work with GLW or SLW? What does splash look like on lacing?

I currently can't have any chickens at this time, but I wanted to plan out a coop layout for the future. I was hoping to get feedback on any elements I might be missing or any adjustments to the design that anyone suggests should be made.
