    I have a hen, the breeder is calling her a California White. all the chicks are white, hens have a black dot on their heads. all chicks have some black flecks but more on hens than roosters. they are beautiful chickens but odd. anyone ever heard of them.?

    Pasty butt on Columbian rock

    I had this problem with chicks I ordered. Give them some scrambled eggs. fluffy eggs made with just a bit of water at the end. It works wonders.!
