    What is this

    I bought this chick at my local atwoods I actually got 3 of them and they were listed as delaware pulletts I noticed that this one has been loosing her down but not growing any feathers is she sick or is it a skin disease? Also one of her toes looks alot lighter than the others.

    She still so small

    My little baby is still so much smaller than the rest but she is able to walk and defend herself now so I have her with the rest. Even her feathers are less developed. What could have caused this to happen?

    Extra small

    I have 1 ISA Brown that came with the 10 I ordered she hatched on Sept 30. She is extremely smaller than the rest of the babies. She sleeps more than anything and I literally have to put her in the palm of my hand so she can drink and eat without being pushed off to the side by the others. Is...

I have built 3 brooders according to...

    I don't even know my girls?

    I was asked how old my girls were and it dawned on me that I have no clue as to the age or breed of my girls so maybe someone can help me. Some are laying but I don't think they all are but when I got them the lady said they were all laying.
