Almost like they are putting so much into bone growth that they lack on feather growth.... the feathers are slowly coming in, but at a much slower rate.

I thought roo from the beginning on this one, it's just the last few days I've been second guessing myself.

Well I got a call from the guy who bought all 10 of my anconas...... He said all but 2 of them died & one was fading in his hands?  He doesn't know why but thinks they knocked their water over & they went without water & he had them under a heat lamp in a 5'x5 area?? He said they were all doing great last night & this morning before he left.... This makes me soooo sad hit.gif  ALL the others that went into homes are doing fine.

He never blamed me or anything, he agreed they were happy healthy and all up til this morning when he left for work.  Until he got home.  I felt really bad for him, because he was heartbroken & really sad. sad.png
