2 weeks strong

It's been two weeks and all of the chicks are still alive!  They are doing really well now.  Very active and are beginning to eat more.  They're taking on individual personalities too.  The really white feathered chick always pecks at me when I pick them up.  I hope he's not a rooster.

Their new feathers are coming in even stronger now.  They are even becoming daring.  I had the top of the brooder open while I was changing the water and one of those suckers tried to fly out the corner.  She couldn't make it all the way to the top but I was surprised how high she could get in the air.

Here are new pictures showing their new feathers.  Plus a video.  The lighting could be better for the video, I'll work on that for next time.



Good shot of new feathers.  It looks like she loosing them, but she is actually losing the baby feathers and growing the long normal bird feathers.

They were curious about the camera.  Funny creatures.
