Mr Rhode Island Red Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Today I finally got 4, three-week old chicks. The breeder told me that there was 3 Anconas and an Orpington. But I'm fairly sure that its 2 Orpingtons and 2 Anconas. I've built their house and they are happily pecking away at chick crumb, after a little encouragement. I'll probably put up some pics of them soon. Mr Rhode Island Red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 How lovely getting them that age you'll be able to watch them develop. My youngest have been about twice that age and still cheeped for some time. Have loads of fun Do I dare ask if you know their sex? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rhode Island Red Posted May 8, 2011 Author Share Posted May 8, 2011 I'm unsure of their gender, but I'm think(or guessing) its 3 hens and a cockerel Mr Rir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
