    Chick acting weird

    I had some chicks arrive the other day and one was near dead. I did my best to nurse it back to health and it's doing pretty good except it holds it's head weird and is hell bent on pecking everyone else in the brooder. I don't know what to do about either situation. It's roughly 4 days old.

    SLW Pullet.. Right?

    Any tips on what to look for? Coloring, behavior? I can't go by its comb because sometimes it's pale and then other times, like when excited about something, it's red. I tried looking at the saddle feathers.. totally lost on that one, I know where they are but not what exactly they're supposed...

    My chicken thinks it's a cat

    First, last night it kept pushing at my boyfriends arm til he moved enough for her to wedge herself underneath then stretched out and went to sleep lol Then this morning after waking me up she decides to hop in MY bed and go back to sleep..

    Well darn.. Yeah, the hen was an older one. Oh well.. I guess I'll have to wait for the next batch, any way of telling the difference when they're really young?
