A Young Chick Out on the Lawn

A fluffy baby chick stands balanced on its feet with wings spread out on both sides of its body. A few individual blades of grass surround the base of its feet.

Life and Development of Newly Hatched Chicks

Baby chicks hatch covered in soft downy feathers that insulate their small bodies while their adult flight plumage gradually develops. Spread wings often indicate that a chick is adjusting its balance or warming itself under farm lamps or sunlight. Young poultry communicate with subtle chirps to keep track of neighboring nestmates in farm yards.

Real Colors of Poultry Chicks

  • Chick down feathers: soft canary yellow, pale cream, brown, or speckled black
  • Chick beak: warm peach, pale orange, or light yellowish-brown
  • Feet and toes: soft orange or pinkish-yellow
  • Grass blades: bright lime green or deep olive green

Chicken eggs require twenty-one days of steady warmth and incubation before the baby chick breaks through the shell.
What do young farm chicks eat during their first days?
Newly hatched chicks eat starter grain feeds rich in protein, as well as tiny seeds and fresh greens they peck from farm pasture grass.
