Thanks ANHBUC
They are very timid. Would like to know if this is normal for speckeldys until they get a bit older. :)

Probably just them settling in to their new surroundings.  A few treats near bedtime and you will have them eating out of your hand in no time at all.   ;)

Thanks j00les
They are healthy looking chooks and I am glad I managed to get them. the breeder only had the 3 left. They are now starting to integrate with the existing hen after a bad start
