We hatched our first bantam egg today but it is born with what I think is prolapsed vent. The chick hasn't opened its eyes and it has a large red "bubble" hanging out of the vent. The easiest way to explain it is it looks like a prolapsed vent. What to do? What caused this?
We have some chicks that are a month old. I noticed that one of the chicks tries to breed the other chicks.... He will run over and grab them by the back of the head and if he can he will get on and do the movements of a full grown rooster. I have only noticed him doing it today. Has anyone else...
