    Peep hatched with bloody sac attached Need Help

    That was my thought as well but wanted to be sure. I have her alone in the incubator with the remaining few unhitched eggs. Didn't want any of the other peeps stepping or pecking at it. Thanks for the response. Greatly appreciated!

    Easter Egger Roo with various purebred hens

    What is wrong with my pullet? Walking Funny and stands with feet sideways

    Trying to post additional pics. Hope to get her walk on video tomorrow. She walks like a duck per my husband....It is hard to describe. She circles her legs out to the side when she steps instead of one foot in front of the other.

    Buff Orpington boys or girls? UPDATED w/ PICS

    I agree - I have had dozens of Orpingtons and I am 95% certain both of them are pullets! Hope that is what you want....they are such sweet docile birds.
