Your rooster is cool looking.All the fluff on top his head is cute. Is he a specific breed? The chicks are adorable, you'll have to keep us posted on how they look as they grow older and yes, weather they are hens or not. Having your own fresh eggs must be great.

What adorable additions to your flock. Do you keep all your chickens?

[luckyandjenn]

Thats actually a hen and yes the breed is called silkie they are chiness chickens the only breed to have blue ear holes black skin and bones from what ive read sadly a crow got three of them so im down to 3 and yes i will keep all three unless i wind up with another rooster as i have 2 roos arledy and yes farm fresh eggs are the best
