Full Mottle(d) Jacket.. - my journey to a colorful coop...

My latest batch of black/blue (mottled) chicks, they will rejoin the splash and the new hens in black and chocolate. When I'm sure of everyone sex, I'll decide which rooster is best for those colors.

The black one is really special, originally I didn't wanted black, but even I not for breeding she's too beautiful for not having her. Fortunately I have a lot of space :celebrate
 
Millefleur Update WEEK 3
The littles MFs spent some time outside in the grass the last days and are progressing quite good. I'm sure having at least one cockerel. (MF02), to put it nicely, you cannot not see it ;) But either way, one MF rooster for the flock is needed.
Number 5 has still a wing hanging a bit limp and developing slower than the others.
My favorite in posture is MF03.

BL03 is "Big splash"s sister (when my feather sexing talents are right).
My favorite little Tiny Bl01, who is minuscule compared with his sibling BL02

So cute! #MFO4 is my favorite because he/she is so tiny and cute! With that little tail and big eyes! The rest are also super cute!
 
Monochrome Update - Week 1

The tiny Black&Blues a still very tiny. I read you can easily put 1 week chicks withe the older (4week) chicks...but they are way to small against the armada of active MFs. I keep them apart, but the older ones are going to move into the chicken coop soon, when the announced summer temperatures arrive.
Tiny Bl01 is a very dark slate gray or black mottled, I'm not sure, but he has ONE white feather.
