The chickens have more than tripled in size since we got them a few weeks ago.The buff orpington's seem to be the beefiest of them all right now, and a few of the reds are still kind of scrawny looking. They are all almost fully feathered out now, though -- with just their undersides and necks looking downy now.
I picked one up the other day and could not believe how thick the legs are already. These things went from fluffy little balls to something that resembles actual chickens now. Every day I go back there I notice a difference. I think if I just sat back there in the coop, I would actually see them grow. Well, maybe not.
