    Buff Orpington’s feathers look…. Different?

    Hello! I have two buff orpington chicks that are now a month old. Eugenie’s feathers look much different from the rest of my chicks but not the same as her pair Sleepy’s. Can anyone tell me why they look like this?

    Am I correct on these breeds?

    I posted some updated pics! 2 doesn’t have feathered feet and has some silly head feather coming in so I think you’re right about the polish! The golden chick has pretty silver coming in on her wings, maybe laced?

    Prolapsed vent?? Please help!

    I hold her a little closer to the heat lamp until she is almost completely dry, using my hand as a barrier so she isn't getting too much direct heat. Is that ok, do you think? I have a lot of local honey I can use too!
