I believe that the chicks were born around the 29th of April and, at about four weeks old. As you can tell, they are in various sizes for all being about the same age. Some have wild new feathers that just seem to curl and stray. Each chick gave me a "nice" pose and I apologize for my poor quality of images. I don't have a great camera and it's hard for me and the chick to both "hold still." First was Blue, then Red. Next was Green, then Orange, who peeped loudly and proudly when she left me a warm gift. Blue is the friendliest and easiest to hold/handle and therefore, the most photos. You can see their *food* coloring dot in some of the photos. Some of them are changing from cute peeps into scraggly adolescents. Also, I just want to let you know, I did not "bend" any feathers to highlight them... and yes, Green's feathers just "do" what they do. (Click on the photos to see them enlarged.)
