The 5th Week of Chickens

 
The Yard and Isolation Wing to the right :-)


Closeup view of Solitary.  Nobody is in it anymore, so I'm going to work on modifications this weekend.


Yard Birds @ 5 Weeks


Basking under the heat lamp just before bed.  They actually stretch out like a person - it's funny and strange.


Here most of them are huddling together by the door.  They like the warmth, but they like the fresh air too - so their butts are under the heat lamp and their heads in the doorway. (this is currently my Windows Wallpaper - how pathetic is that? haha).

I know I'm gonna sound like a dumb City Slicker-
Wow, they grow fast, it seemed like yesterday they were teeny tiny chicks.

It's not just you - I'm amazed. They are slowing down a little, but the first 4 weeks were scary! If I would have thought of it I'd have weighed one each week to see the change.

Wow, you are a really successful chicken farmer. Glad they are not the "plucking" kind. Or, should I say YOU are not the "plucking" kind. Really nice chickies! You are doing a great job! Would love to go down and help ya.
