Has anyone had a chick that is growing well but not getting feathers? I have a 3 1/2 week old Light Brahma that hasn't gotten any new feathers since she was a couple of days old (only on the wing tips). I have 11 other chicks the same age and size and they all have a lot of feathers all over...
One other thing to consider....I've had dirt floors and I ended up with rats burrowing under the floor and making a huge mess when I had pheasants. Has anyone else had a problem with rats or other burrowing creatures?
