Hi, so I’m slightly confused.
March 12 of this year I purchased some “couple” day old chicks.
out of all of them I was most excited for my FBCM which has now grown to a good size. Throughout her growth there was never any copper that came in so I’m getting curious, I’ve done my searches, now...

today when I went out to the coop I noticed a large black almost scab looking thing...
Good morning all,
quick question, with the weather starting to heat up a lot have brought up the technique of using a low pan (I use plastic plant bases) for birds to stand in.

I’m hoping for a confused pullet. Haha
thank you

hopefully these photos help. Thanks!
