My latest additions

[jeanette]

Here are my latest additions. I finally got them from Perth and flown to where i live, took about 2 months to find. They are now a week olds in these pics. My girlfriend is taking 6 and we are keeping 6, so that would make it 11 chooks i have. 5 are in the pen outside about 2ys of age they are i will get some pics and post them eventually.

Very sweet little chicks. How long do you have to keep them inside for?

OHHHHH Makes me want more!
It depends on where you are Jenny. Most keep them in a shed or warm room until they are feathered. I kept my first 2 in the brooder until they were fully feathered.

Cute cute cute! What breed are they?

i will keep them inside until they are old enough to defend themselves in the big chook pen with my 5 ladys. They are Hi-Line Browns and are apparently good layers. Mine are in the Laundy if i put them in the shed they will cook it gets hot here where i live so they have a light and the laundry door is open a bit to get a little cool in there at teh same time so the temp is perfect.
