Thank you for all your help will put a pic on in a few days for you all to see Back to top Deb_Moderator Joined: 13 Apr 2005 Posts: 3661 Posted: Sun Sep 18, 2005 1:04 pm    Post subject: She must be getting some of her wing feathers by now. I hate that little chicks don't stay little for very long. That fluffy softness just doesn't last long enough.
