    That is kind of what I was thinking. However, none of the other chickens picked on her and the flock has been calm after getting rid of the mama and other chick. Can anyone think of a vitamin deficiency or anything that could cause continual moulting and no egg laying. I've vitamins in the...

    My two Buff Orphingtons are so bonded they chirp very loudly when they are apart.... and i have a fear this is a male. He/she is more aggressive and its comb and waddle are very large in comparison to the other... and considering it was hatched on Mar 1st....8 weeks old. Now this is the other...
