I have 3 DB hens of different colors ( pyle, lavender and light brown partridge) They got chicks from pyle rooster.
The chicks where pyle, light brown, (from 2 mothers)
splash and black (from the lavender mother),
this is all correct.
After about 8 weeks the chicks vary in size. The biggest one is twice the size of the smallest ( who had a cold). Will this chick stay smaller? Or is it likely that it will grow up faster/longer now the cold is over? Or is the variation because the race is not pure dutch bantam. ..?
At first the leggs of the white chick were yellow. The leggs of the black (with a llittle brown) where black. But after a few weeks they started to get blue. Does this mean that the adults are not pure DB ore is it normal that the colour of the leggs change. ..?
