    Feather loss on chicken's head.

    They just clip right into the chickens nostrils. I am not entirely sure how or why it works but it does lol. It has something to do with blocking the view of objects directly in front of them or something. sorry I can't be of more help.

    Feather loss on chicken's head.

    cute polish: Is she splash?

    yes I think my birds were about two months old in the second pair of pictures and you can see that they were mostly white at that time.

    cute polish: Is she splash?

    A clearer picture would definitely help in the color identification process. I don't have any experience with polish chickens but I did raise two splash ameraucanas this summer and I would assume color expresses itself the same regardless of breed.
