White Chicks are Growing Up!

Top - Bottom:
1. Male: black face and body, bigger build than Dad, big floppy maroon comb
2. Male: red face, pink flesh. Smaller build than bro. Bright red, standing and well shaped comb
3. Female: pink face and flesh, Mom look-alike
4. Female: black face and flesh, big pompom on her head, smallest build of all - looks like a pigeon
5. Female: black face and flesh, with a lil' bun on her head
6. Female: pink face and flesh, messy feather, with a lil' bun on her head
7. Female: black face and flesh, messy feather -- really looks like a Silkie breed
8. Female: pink face and flesh, messy feather, smooth head.




They are growing so fast. In only 3 months, the chicks are as big as their parents. Well, some are bigger.
So big that we built a new bigger coop for them, it's just way too crowded.

I plan to give them away, but I really wanna make sure that they won't be slaughtered and made into fried chicken. Still looking for foster parents who can be satisfied with just fried eggs. Haha





Below are the pic of me and two of naughty kids (both flew out from their coop and I had to chase them)

These  two is a perfect clone of their parents. The male one exactly look like Mr. White, only with bigger built and a comb that flopped to left.
The female one, exactly look like Mrs. White, once she started to lay eggs (thus more fluffy butt), I'd have difficulty to tell them apart.
LR: male, female
