After shopping at our local feed store, several more varieties of chickens found themselves a home in our basement. Definitely a sign of SPRING! These little guys were sooo irresistible. Just had to bring them home.
In case you're wondering, that huge yellow chicken was a lonely chick hubs hatched in a second attempt..she's an only child. She's playin' momma to the newbies.
This little girl is a black sex link, Her feathers should be barred when she's full grown. She will become an egg laying machine!
This little yellow chick is a buff cochin. She has fuzzy feet. Her friend is a silver lace wyandotte. When mature, each feather will be silvery white edged in black.
On this pic, our little buff cochin is posing with a white jersey giant. As the name implies, she will be a large, all white bird.
All of these cuties will be layers of a variety of brown eggs. Hopefully they are all hens. The only ones that are sure to be hens are the black sex links. As for the rest, we'll have to wait and see.
