    Pecked eye/ Sick or molting chicken?

    I've got a few 10-12 week olds out of my bunch that I'm beginning to question whether they are hens or not. Cinnamon Queen: Same cinnamon queen: Barred Rock #1 Barred Rock #2: This one we've suspected was a rooster from the beginning, acts like one, but doesn't have a very pronounced or...
