our first baby chickens!

[petal]

Billie(Bubble) is an exchequer leghorn. we have another buff orpington now called caramel and a pekin hatched today - doesn't look great so it will get called Lucky if it lives the night.

baby pekins have hatched!

we have 6 altogether and some lavender due in a week! They are the size of mice and so cute! Because they have furry feet my daughter is giving them hobbit names!!

First Billie-bubble and now this! I'm totally in love with the little guy asleep on its back! Please stop posting these piccies - I can't cope with all this emotion! (Only kidding they're just so fab!) Keep 'em coming!

Love them! Especially teh pekins but then I would - although Billie is a real sweetie

thought I would keep you all updated - crested cream legbar just hatched - looks like a female as its dark! (they are an auto sexing breed, very unusual)other chicks doing fine - lost splash pekin - it just keeled over but we have one who is splayed legged, considering splinting his legs to help but he is eating and drinking fine - just waddles everywhere.

they are all so cute,keep finding myself straying to e-pay and looking at incubators and hatching eggs but haven't really got the space and am still new to this.have started dropping hints to see what santa can provide as I cant set the temp high enough on my reptile incubator.
