    Large BR Pullet about to be 36 weeks and hasn't laid!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an informative response. I have heard of hens taking on male characteristics with the lack of a rooster. She was briefly exposed to a rooster when one of my "pullets" turned out to be male. He was with them for a week after he began to crow and...

    Lump on chest of chick?

    I remember my first crop scare! It's definitely the crop and completely normal. If the chick is carrying on like normal, eating and drinking, I wouldn't be worried at all.

    thank you 🥰 I wish that were the case, but she doesn't free-range. She does have a very large enclosure, but I clean it out once a week and haven't discovered any rogue eggs yet.

    Thank you for the guidance, I appreciate you responding! Do you believe she is a Marans? I really have no experience with breeds.

    ...grey. Alma was big from the start, slightly sick and feathered a bit slower. I honestly don't remember what other breeds were mixed in the bin but I *believe* there were barred rocks in there. Her legs are more yellow than white in person, photos on my cheap phone don't translate colors very...

    Large BR Pullet about to be 36 weeks and hasn't laid!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to these comments. Alma is a big girl and I am very confident now that she is indeed female. When I first started this thread I wasn't even questioning her gender but rather worried something was wrong that could possibly harm her. I can see how...

    Thanks!! I think I may paint some details on the white nest box cabinet and I've been thinking about maybe staining the wood to the various runs. Or maybe painting them turquoise (haven't convinced my partner of that idea yet 😅)
