Two of my chickens have cuts on their beaks. Another one has a discolored beak, but we think that is because of extra pigmentation. How do we treat these cuts and prevent them? We just moved them into the coop. They are only 6 weeks old...

A little long, but nethertheless a good idea

I read that you should expect only 1 out of 4 shipped eggs to hatch. Keep your fingers crossed!

You can try and gently crack the shell and remove the chicks.

Raccoon. A skunk would just spray.

My chicks are always taking dust baths when they go outside and fluff their feathers and shake themselves. Does this mean they have mites?

Crack it open for future reference.

Sounds good. If it doesn't work try peanut butter or vinegar and then wash it out. .

Usually in between 18 to 20 weeks, but if they are not getting enough calcium it can be delayed

She should be fine

They should be good as long as you don't give them to much.
