chuckmum6 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 (edited) This is day one for my little Spring Onions (dad is called Onion). They hatched yesterday afternoon and today went out in the run with their mum! Delightful to watch as they copied mum preening (they topple over) pecking (each others toes) and wing flapping! "I wish I could fly!" Edited April 21, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckmum6 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 Had a slight surprise I thought the chicks were all Wyandottes (blue laced/silver laced and pencilled laced mums with a Pencilled Dad), but then I spotted these feet!!!!!!!!!!!!! This must be the work of Jenny my Partridge Pekin!!!! These two both have Wyandotte toes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
