    2 week old silkie chicks- able to identify gender?

    So I know it’s hard to tell with silkies when they are little, but is anyone able to identify whether they are hen or rooster? They’re both two weeks old Personality wise the gray one seems generally more snuggly and chill the tan one likes snuggle but is also more skittish and energetic

    Fowlpox?

    I do not have any experience with fowlpox, so I don’t know if that is what this is- 2 of my Serama hens have yellowish sores/blisters on their combs. Any ideas on what this is? Is it serious? I’ve never had any of my hens have this before

    Hey, guys! I got these 2 Serama chickies a week or two ago and am questioning whether they are cockerels or pullets at this point- as much as I would love to have a rooster, this area sadly does not allow them, so I am hoping, hoping, hoping for pullets!

    Feathers falling out??

    My Rhode Island Red’s feathers are coming out in clumps- should I be concerned??? She’s pretty old, and it doesn’t seem like molting .-. Never seen this before. Could it be some sort of mites/lice? There’s no blood or anything, they’re just coming out in clumps. Please help!
