nutterly_uts Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Here are the 2 chicks I have left. I weighed up the pros and cons of keeping all 4, but they are growing bigger far faster then expected (orpington chicks) and where they've gone to will keep them if male or female so I can't complain (I can swap if needed too) I've moved them from the little cage ready for the arrival of silkies, plus they were getting too big for it! (Last hatch the chicks were about 5 weeks before they got too big, so these guys grow fast LOL) Their new house The yellow board is to try to contain the bedding from their kicking about LOL As it was such a nice day, I put them in the garden for 10mins to grub about in the grass and took some pics Chick 1 Chick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
