Hello everyone,
I may sound like a broken record at this point. However, I'm at my wits end. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Maybe I've made some big mistakes?? I would really love some honest feedback.

Here is my almost 4 week old Rhode Island Red, Rosie Girl. However, looking at the VERY pink Comb and...
