I got them at tractor supply co in muskegon a few weeks back, they have already began to "feather out" I think the term is called. The ones i purchased were called pullets but I have no...

I'm 19, just started with some chicks I bought at tractor supply co. They were too cut to pass down. This forum is extremely helpful but for some reason I can't find any information on chicks running around flapping their wings. Mine do it at night mostly before they settle down and sleep. I...
