Just a few photos of the new chicks. They are still a little wary, understandably, of flashing lights. In a few days time when they are more settled I will hopefully manage to get a few more. All chicks have survived the night, all have found the food and water. They are covering the whole area of the brooder, snuggling back under the heat light every now and then for warmth. The temperature of the brooder seems right as they are all spread evenly around the heat area. So far so good...
i love the eyeliner that welsummer chicks have :)
ReplyDeleteYou should be able to identify male or female by it but I prefer to wait unitl they are fully feathered to be completley sure.
