    Bloody vent area

    We have one Buff in the incubator that has a bloody swollen look around its vent area, none of the others look like this. Other than that the chick seems to be fine, it has only been hatched for about 12 hours now. Suggestions on anything we need to do with it anyone?

    Just by looking at photos of others saying their chicks are roosters I really think that some or all of our chicks are roosters, but they are now 8 weeks old and we have never heard any of them try to crow... shouldnt we have at least heard one of them give it a try by now? What do you think?
