    Boys or girls?

    The one with the bigger redder comb is definitely a boy, he crows every morning. However, not sure about his friend, she has a little but smaller lighter comb and does not crow. Could she be a girl?

    When do we give up roos?

    chickies breaking my heart!!!

    Baby chick stumbling and can't keep balance.

    One of our 4 day old silkies is having trouble walking, standing up right and kind of wobbles over. Some background is that when she was 2 days old I found her with a bloody toe that she and her siblings were pulling at. We cleaned her up, put some antibacterial ointment on and then some...
