How do our chicks grow....

These are our two little French Black Copper Maran chicks. One was born on Christmas Day, the other the day after Christmas. We are hoping for one of each sex. These lay dark chocolate brown eggs! I wanted to show one of their little legs. They will have feathers all the way down the one side of their leg. Most chickens don't have feathers on their legs.



These are the chicks that hatched out 4 weeks ago. They are getting so big! You can judge a bit from the feeder at the bottom, the feeder is about 18 inches long.
There are 6 Black Australorps and 1 Red Star.
