They grow up so fast

Andrew Jackson and a barnevelder buddy

They've moved into a larger box in the loungeroom, and they're growing up fast. Feathers are already on the wings and growing on the tails. Andrew Jackson has a bald patch on the top of his head where fluff is being replaced.

I just love his punk rock eye-liner. :)

The Barnevelder is 4 weeks old, and Andrew Jackson (a Houdan) is 3 weeks old. Given the hot and cold weather we're experiencing lately, I thought we'd give them at least another week indoors, but without a heat lamp because it's quite steady in here.

The other Barnevelder chicks are outside, but they have a big warm broody chook to keep them warm still.

Until next time!
