    Welsummer roo?

    Can anyone help me decide if this is a welsummer roo or maybe a different breed? They were all meant to be welsummer pullets. It’s 3 weeks old, no sign of a comb, but the others all have tiny combs already. Markings are completely different from its chick mates. But the legs are pretty big I think!

    I just noticed a few of my girls have these odd blotches of white in their earlobes. No one is acting strange and I recently dewormed. Any idea what it could be? (Not my chicken, but looks just like this picture)

    I have a one year old golden comet who I noticed had gotten very thin and had a pale comb. I treated her and the rest of the flock for worms last night, when I went to let them out this morning her comb looked better but I realized her crop was full and hard. I’ve seperated her and tried to...

    Parasite, molting, or bully?

    I have some hens who are about 5 1/2 months old. They all have these patches on your back where the feathers are thin and fuzzy. I’ve checked them over and I don’t see any signs of parasites. My older hens look fine. Is it molting?
