I hatched three silkie chicks and all three have poop stuck to their butss for a few days now and I'm not sure what to do. I have never had this problem so I'm looking for some help. Thanks
the rooster is the mystery bird. i hatched him and he was supposed to be a silkie and the guy i bought him from was a rare breed dealer so maybe he is the rare combless rooster:P
in the top pic what breed is the brown one standing up? i ordered silkie eggs and when ithatched it came out looking kinda like that and im trying to figure out what it is haha cute chicks
ugh i was afraid of that. i contacted the seller. i am not sure if i can keep it. i would try again for silkies and so i would have to give away this one i am running out of room and cant have both
pics will def be posted soon but there is a huge problem. the supposed silkie has pink feet and with no feathers on its feet. so i contacted the seller. i wish silkies were born with pink feet lol i dont have much more room at all for chcikens so im not sure i can keep it and still be able to...
well it hatched this morning and its still in the bator and i have never hatched silkies before but this one has pink feet with no feathers on its feet. ill post pictures when i can get it out help!
its the morning of day 21 and i woke up to the very pleasent surprise of a splash silkie and its about half dry and the other eggs have no piping and are getting rolled around by the already hatched silkie. how long should they stay in the bator after they hatch???
