2,7 & 9 ended up being my pullets. Lol we were pretty much all off! I thought #5 was a 4th pullet until “she” started crowing! Polish chicks just don’t seem to be my area of expertise :idunno:p
I’m so glad you replied. But I am sorry for your loss. That sounds extremely familiar. My red had greenish poop stuck to her feathers with undigested food. The two I’ve had recover were some of my friendliest hens that were willing to eat or drink anything I put in front of them. I’ll definitely...
