I need some help.  I didn't post in the emergency cuz I don't have my camera right now.

this is my first time with them and I only have 1 that survied the trip, but you know the smallest toe on the chick?  Well mine doesn't have a nail and it looks like a bump on both toes.  Is that normal for them?  I couldn't tell in the pictures if thier toes looked the same or not.

Thanks everyone, I am kind of worried.

One of the first breeds I started with over 30 years ago.  Very nice birds and great layers, though their eggs are kinda light in color.   I'll try to get some pics of my ladies that I have on the farm these days.

I dig Blonde chicks.........

They are awesome birds! I love my girls, they're my favorite breed! Always lay these huge eggs, and I love their personality!
