. Bought as an Aracauna pullet, she is about 8 weeks but I am suspicious if she is really a "he". She isn't aggressive and is one of the more shy chickens. The curved tail is really throwing me off.
I noticed today that one of my Easter eggers is missing a patch of feathers on her back. What would cause this? And should I be worried and take any actions? I have never owned chickens before.
Ok thanks! I was wondering because she is really pretty and I've heard the prettier they are the more likely they are male? But I'm good with female! I can't wait to see what color eggs she will lay too!
Just to update everyone on my sick chick, I went to southern states on Monday and got some probiotic supplement and some liquid antibacterial supplement that they suggested. I have been adding it both to their water as directed and she is doing much MUCH better! I have also not seen anymore...
Oh no that doesn't sound good. Yes they are on the medicated feed, our southern states is closed this evening but I can make it there first thing in the morning. I haven't noticed any diarrhea but their stools do look a little different than usual. A little more runny than usual. How could this...
