Gorgeous. Fantastic pictures. My favourite is minis fluffy knickers! I've got a hybred that keeps going broody. You've started me thinking ........ now where can I find somebody who wants a pet rooster???

[Guest]

they are gorgeous, love the last pic but perhaps we should refer anyone thinking of doing this back to your original thread as pics of cute ickle chicks are very enticing!

Hiya Poet, Dont worry, I read the first post and I know its a very complicated business. I'm not rushing off to ebay to buy a bundle of fertilised eggs!

Oh yes absolutely!!! feel free to add the link as not sure how myself... just thought it was better to have new thread rather than making a long one but with hindsight maybe it would have been better to add to original justification

 

To clarify for those tempted my rule of thumb for everything I do is ...

 

The 5 P's

 

adapted in this case to

 

Prior Preparation Prevents Poultry Problems

 

or

Prior Preparation Prevents Poorly Poultry

 

 

I would not have entertained this unless I had fully prepared for before, during and after hatch including and most importantly homes for any boys.

OMG they are so cute I almost cried!!!!

[The Brown Clan]

How cute are they bless em and their fluffy knickers ( or pants ) must be politically correct after all

[mayflower]

Seriously gorgeous!!

[ubereglu]

Aww, they're lovely. They look like they have a good mummy too!

[clootie]

How are your babies today?

[Poplars]

Awwwwwww they are so cute! I just want to pick them up and cuddle them!! I can not actually belive how adorable they are!!

I know the feeling! I go straight out to them once home from work as miss all my girls but these even more at the moment as growing every day!

 

If anyone is passing they are more than welcome to popin for a cuddle while still fluffy!

 

I went put them in the "daytime" nursery this morning and they were already at the hutch door cheeping to come out.. they have all got in a good routine now as Mum moves herself then supervises while I lift each chick into run. they do wait in turn very sweetly if a little noisy.. just hope they get a bit quieter as they grow

 

Their wing feathers are really growing now and once in run they do funny little practise hops skips and jumps trying to fly

 

I'll wait till they have grown a few more days to post more pics so you can see the difference.

It's probably a good thing I live so far away then!
