These are the little mixed chicks hatched in the incubator they are now 3 weeks old and doing well. There are 12 altogether.
Yesterday as it was nice and warm they had there first trip outside in the orchard. I put them in a indoor rabbit cage within a cold frame so that they were nice and warm and not in a draught for a few hours. They really seemed to enjoy flapping their tiny wings. It is so good for them to be in the fresh air as it encourages feather growth.

Nice to see the chicks. I love chicks!
ReplyDeleteThey are very cute and already getting their own personalities. Good to here from you.
DeleteThey are so sweet. I can almost feel their tiny feet on my hand, feel their fluffiness and smell their little chick scent.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Easter ~ FlowerLady
They are little bundles of fluff and just starting to get their next set of feathers. Nice to hear from you.
DeleteAh they are so sweet. I was brought up on a farm and each spring we had chicks. I used to spend hours watching them....they are fascinating! x
