I had no idea how fast chicks grow!!  Here are some new pictures that I took (counting from the day we purchased them).

4 Days Old:  They are shedding the soft feathers and the adult feathers are starting to show on their wings.

7 Days Old:  They are getting really tall and more feathers are exposed.  They are also running and flapping their wings.
