    Hi I have noticed the larger comb and also the different attitudes of the sexes. Think the attitudes play an important part in assessing. I also find the cockerels often hatch first. But it is not always easy and I do get it wrong. I also find taking photos and looking at them on the p.c...

    Awww they are just so cute. Making me feel broody now <lol> My Partridge was the colour of the ones with the "go faster stripes" when hatched. You will have to send more photos as they grow. All the best with your precious bunch. Sylvia

    Shrink Wrapped Eggs

    Thank you sooo much this has ben really helpful. Yes, the chick did have goop stuck to it. I managed to get most of it off its head and eye but must have missed some as it has now started scratching its eye and made it bleed (not good I know). I have just given it another warm wash and put...

    Shrink Wrapped Eggs
