    Chick with big comb. Unsure sex...

    usually a hens comb is much smaller and not nearly as red at such a young age i am fairly certain most hen combs don't redden until they are near or are laying eggs also i have heard though I don't know if its confirmed that cockerels develop feathers slower and therefore look more "bare"...

    One Legged Chicken

    I had a baby chick hatch today with one leg that he is unable to bend. At all. So of course the leg sits uselessly behind him and since he is just born he has no muscle to even know or try to walk with one leg so my question is should i cull him or is there something i can do to help him
