One Week Old (4/30/2019)

After one week of life, the littles are doing great, but not noticeably different. I think the Dominiques feel larger than the rest when handled – that’s about the only change.

Since each bird in each breed still looks too much alike to try and name them, I’ve only added names to this photo based on what I dubbed them by breed. I hope they all develop some unique qualities so that I can properly christen each bird, but I am doubtful that I’ll get to. So, pending any identifying characteristics, the names, for a while, will be estimates only.

I tried to separate them out a bit to get better shots.

Here are  the Dominiques:

Sorry that they are blurry…I only took my phone out to the coops today and it doesn’t take the best photos.

Stop back next week for another update on this newest flock.
