Are there a couple different hatches there ? Some of them look somewhat smaller.

The smaller ones are 1 day old. The bigger ones are 19 days old. Thus the post 18 days.

They can fly a little. If I let them they would be able to fly up into small bushes. I have a stick up off the ground the like to set on.

Good deal, seen 3 hens grouped up Saturday with 20+ poults not 300 yards from my front door.....I was as happy as I could be to see them, especially considering the 10-12 inches of rain the last couple weeks we have received....all were flying size.

Funny, I just looked out the window and there are two hens with what looks like 5 or 6 poults. They're about the size of a cornish hen...Hope there are some little tommies there  :drool:

Looks good. The two broods getting along ok? Those pecking orders start early.

I was wondering the same thing.
