Blue-DiamondChick07 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 How can I tell if my Chick is going to be a frizzle? When will it start to show roughly? My Eggs were frizzle and smooth, and yet again, Lavender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 You should know for sure by two weeks, some of mine have been as easy to spot at a few days old but usually its ten days or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue-DiamondChick07 Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 Thanks I'm hoping for a frizzle. He/she was the only egg of 9 to hatch again, its a Lavender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hi - I can always tell at day 4 to 5 & sometimes on hatch now. They tend to be so much fluffier feathered at hatch - almost too fluffy. At day 4 to 5, the wing tip feathers start to curl & it goes on from there. I adore my frizzles!
