    I'm super worried!

    They shouldn't be eating any treats harder than hard boiled egg without grit. The chick crumbles are small enough to digest without it. Sorry about your chick though.

    How early do you clip chick wings?

    Mine have both sides clipped and the lighter ameraucanas can get a good 3.5 feet of air. However, that works fine for me because it keeps them in the 4 ft fence while still allowing them some flying ability just in case. So it really depends on your circumstances.

    Thin broody hen

    Also, she may be skinnier because she is low in the pecking order. Try providing more spaces for her to eat without being bullied to improve her condition.

    Is this comb healthy?

    It's fine :) . Do you know if she has had it her whole life, or what breed her parents are? Some breeds have black combs, but from this picture I can't see any sign of something being wrong. A closer picture might help, but if she has had it her whole life it is probably just from one of her...

    Genetics class

    Relating this to chickens: The crest on a polish chicken is a dominant gene, so if you breed a polish chicken to a non-crested breed, the chick would very likely have a crest. This is my understanding of it, at least. There are traits where they will both show up in the offspring as a kind of...
