There soooooooooo cute looking. My cuz said that when they was still in there eggs your suppost to take a needle and inject dye in the egg, then when they hatch there that color!! i think thats soooooooooo cool, but when they shed there baby feathers they loose the color. She also has one that didnt take the dye correctly or somtin and it turned out blach and orange! she bought these chicks from some one down there... have yall ever heard of this?

This is possibly the most appropriately named thread topic... and will be the most initially misjudged thread in the history of threads.

They said on the news last week that the chicks will be killed by the other chickens because they are different.

I have seen these little guys at the fair. They will lose the color as they get new feathers.
