We think her nails are too long. She doesn't scratch as much as the other girls and one nail looks a little twisted. We're going to try and clip her nails tomorrow and see if that does the trick!
They are roughly 6 months.
She's eating, drinking, pooping, roosting normally. She's still very active, just hopping around instead of her normal walk.
I'm not sure if she vaccinated against Mareks. We received our flock at several days old and they were monitored for the following:
-H5/H7 Avian Influenza clean
-Salmonella Monitored
-Pullorum-Typhoid clean
