Luthien Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 O.M.G! They are just soooooooooooooooo cute! You are so lucky, my sister and I, when we were little, use to nick the eggs that mum brought from the supermarket and try to hatch them a lil naive as we thought all chickens were on open farms and that there was always a rooster with them Though I'll never know why we didn't pop round next door but one (next to my grans) and nick some eggs as they had chooks...and I think a rooster. I don't remember ever hearing them how strange.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 How lovely. Any guesses as to gender yet Fee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Mmmm....I try and feather sex as day olds, then watch the wing and tail growth. At the moment I think there's 3, maybe 4 leghorn girls and 2 Sussex girls (basically 50/50 - it's got to be a good guess ). The wee Leghorn straggler is tiny now compared to the others - I don't think he's growing well at all - will need to keep an eye on him.
