    2 wk broiler chicks, gasping/weakness, excessive death rate

    I think we are actually starting on week 3... but you cannot tell by their growth. They are not growing very well at all despite constant feed

    2 wk broiler chicks, gasping/weakness, excessive death rate

    About 2 weeks ago I had 78 chirping chicks arrive from Townline hatchery. This is my 3rd batch of chicks from them this year and I only lost 2 chicks in my first two batches. I realize we are running a little later in the year and thus colder but I was optimistic I would do fine. Oh how I have...

    clean legged marans or black sex link?

    I have black sex links but none of them have dark legs, i dont think, *runs out to look at legs* Oh yes, they do haev dark legs LOL! and your bird could easily pass as a black sex link. Yours has a slightly bigger comb than mine though but same markings (my BSL have markings all over the place...

    If i am remmebering correctly- marans have white legs whereas barred tend to have yellow legs. (my barred pullets are yellow legged) i am not sure if its white with some darkness in front- someone else will have to chime in

    Did I make a huge mistake ordering silkies from Ideal?

    What color silkies?

    Quote: even if mine ended up the same color as your "reds" i would be happy. I just don't want partridge. now your partridge looks more like what i would expect a gray silkie (hatchery quality) to look like. I actually like it.

    What color silkies?

    well... i guess I better find a private breeder then and just sell these ones off when they get fully feathered out. I jumped at their $1 each sale hoping i would end up with some colors i wanted. I don't have high amounts of money to be spending on the really really really beautiful ones so i...

    On the comment section when I ordered i said i wanted anything other than white, black and partridge if they could please do that... (it was an assortment and thus i figured it was a long shot) but i think they got me backwards and thought i was requesting them *sighs* I am still holding out...

    What color silkies?

    They are from Ideal Hatchery- about 2 weeks old. I know the black ones and I assume the white ones are white... but i am not sure on the other ones. I had two that i thought were buff and those ones died last week. I am thinking that perhaps these are red silkies? and one on the right is a...
