Chick Flicks :-)

Show us your pics of your brand sparkly new chicks  


Thought I would start off this thread seeing as I'm a new "Granny" now  

Here is one of the Lemon Cuckoo Pekin Bantams that hatched this morning...

2 have hatched and 1 is pipped and 2 still doing nothing

Theyre Lovely Pete... We got 4 out of 6 hatched, removed the last egg yesterday and got my oh to check if there was anything insude the egg, but it was just a stinky egg, no chick

I've just hatched 8 from 12 Ebay Poland eggs. 6 Chamoise and 2 gold laced so I am pleased with that. Not as pleased with the single silkie out of 6 eggs (Thainestone)
I can't post photos at the moment because we've lost the lead to connect the camera to the pc lol

Here they are all dried off and fluffed up...

Here are my latest 2 granchicks    they hatched tuesday/wednesday

I'm not sure what colours they are supposed to be think one is black, but i've been looking at pics of pekin chick colours online and my black looks like a birchen? Its already named...... Pingu  

The other one might be a partridge?

Will need the help of Sassinak I think... our very own Chicken Guru

Second is a partridge. The first could easily be black, they often have white wing tips when they are hatched. Strangely enough the feathers can sometimes come through white and then slowly darken to black.

Many thanks Sass, your valuable help is very much appreciated
