My grandma is hatching eggs, she’s had about 9 hatch perfectly fine, but this one came out like this. Any recommendations about how to handle this? I told her to leave it for now, but would love to know how to advise her. Sorry the pics aren’t great. I’m not with her so I can’t get better ones.

Hi! I have two barred rock that look almost identical. They’re about 4 1/2 weeks old. Possibly a bit older (by a few days.) Can anyone tell me their guesses on if this one is a hen or a roo?
