Gawd the chicks look great! They are huge. It's interesting, you can see the nice long backs on the chicks already. I hope you show some of these chicks.

It will be interesting to see what your boy girl ratio is, a lot look to be male to me, but it's probably too young to tell.I'm going by what my leghorns look like at this age. Good healthy looking batch. Love to see how they change as they grow.
