Baby Chicks 2025 - Chicks are here!

[ILoveDaffy]

My group has been extremely active, and they've grown so fast! Wing feathers are well on their way in, and even tiny tail feathers.

@Sunnnshine1 how are your chicks looking?

From MT. Healthy. According to their catalogue, the black copper marans feet are suppose to be feathered, but the cuckoo marans are NOT feathered.

(I have 2 with feathered feet, maybe the BCM and the Brahma?) all are supposed to be female but I think one might be a male-comb looks redder and chick has shorter tail then all the others. Hatch date was 3/5/25. These pics are from 3/30/25. I don’t know which breed is which. (Others have said the extra chick should be same as one I ordered.)

Are any of them brown? I could not for the life of me identify your Welsummer! 1 is Cuckoo, 2 is BCM, 8 is Barnevelder, 11 is the Legbar, 12 the Brahma. The other breeds vary in color so they will be harder to tell. Which one is all white? I have red light tint on my phone so 7, 9 & 10 all had greyish tint in my photos. I’ll log on my laptop later to see if the lighting changes for me. They are growing well!

All are doing great! Excuse the nasty brooder, it was cleaned 5 minutes later.View attachment 4085109View attachment 4085108

Aww looking good! How are they doing now? Any photos without the red light?

My babies will be 4 weeks on Sunday. I'm loving them so much, they're so sweet and getting huge. They'll be moving outside hopefully this weekend. Here's a huge photo dump of them. The two boys are fairly obvious. Still not sure on the extra barred rock.

This New Hampshire red boy is so nice. I usually try not to handle boys much but he's making it hard, lol.

Look at those chonky legs!

Extra BR in question

Also the GLW has a light of white on it at the moment, I know they're hatchery birds but I hope that goes away.

Runty barnevelder. I hope she catches up, she's a sweetie

Enjoying their wet mash

 

[MGG]

Limit again, lol.

BR in question again

BCM. Her legs look so long right now, lol.

Also has a random white primary

Beautiful teenage chicks! lol. I’m not convinced on that barred rock, either. Could go either way!

Thanks! They're so cute.
His personality seems more cockerel-ish to me, but I have no idea. I hope it's a girl but I'll probably keep it either way. I should have plenty of girls for three boys.
