    Strange pupil shape?

    Sorry to revive an older post, but I was wondering if you had an update on this hen? I have a hen I hatched out which has the exact same condition and I am really hoping it's not Mareks. Out of a flock of 50 she's the only one that has it.

    Barred Rock 4mth old - Possibke Rooster

    I can't be sure but it looks like a hen to me. I have a little barred rock I call Speeder which gradually became very squabbly over her youth. I have heard barred rocks are either the sweetest little things or an absolute menace. Speeder definitely pecks and squabbles at me non-stop. Edit: I...
