I was given one Show Girl egg to hatch. Didn't think it would but hatched exactly on time. SO TINY!! Right now I'm keeping her (it) in a brooder box in my study. I've named her Lola (Barry Manilow's Coppa Cabana...) Any suggestions on raising her? I've plain barn yard chickens I've had for 2 yrs...
I was given a Black Silkie yesterday. Age unknown. Gender unknown. Chick is missing most of it's fluff on it's back. The rest of it's fluff is thin and dull. Any idea what is wrong with this chick. I have it in a seperate cage from other chickens. I'm new to Silkies although I do have 3 - 4month...
