    Eye growth on day old chick.

    Thank you so much for the reply! It honestly may not be an eye growth. That is what my non-experienced brain labeled the under eye area. 😅 I will post another pic.

    Eye growth on day old chick.

    Hello! I just got this chick from my local feed store (by way of Meyer hatchery) and this is how her eye looks. When I pull it open, it is cloudy and grey. She seems weaker than the others and is so much louder. She seems uncomfortable. Any suggestions or advice? Thank you, friends. 🙏🏼

    Silkie Cockerel not mounting hens?

    Thank you! I will say, he chooses to roost in a different coop. We have two small coops in the back. The girls roost in one and he will roost by himself in the other. Do you think I should start making them roost together?

    Silkie Cockerel not mounting hens?

    Yes, I have had him since he was two weeks old. He grew up around the other hens. To be fair, they are pullets. They are all around the same age.

    Silkie Cockerel not mounting hens?

    Hello! This is Snow, my 31 week old cockerel. He is so shy and a little loner. He will not mount our three gals. We are a bit confused by it, but wondering if maybe he is just slow to mature. He is crowing, but almost scared of the ladies. Has anyone else experienced anything like this before...

    11 week old Splash silkie- Gender?

    This is Snow. He/she is 11 weeks old. It is the most beautiful, curious and timid chicken I have ever owned. I’m sure it is probably too early to tell, but I figured I would pick your brains and see what your guesses were! Thank you in advance.
