    You are welcome. Specifically what you are seeing is Red bleeding though the black not brown. They look like healthy happy chicks aside from that. Best wishes.

    Absolutely NOT normal. This would be a huge disqualifying fault. They should also have nearly black shanks and toes. Yours have too much willow. Also they should have Dark Brown eyes so you are WAAAAAAAAAY outside the standard of perfection.

    A white JG should have willow colored shanks and toes with the undersides of feet being yellow. Eye color should be brown/dark brown. All the other qualities that you could use as a guideline do not show themselves fully until the bird hits puberty. Best wishes!

    I am not saying one way or another if the bird is a JG but if you ASSUME it is then it looks like it is about 3 weeks old.

    This. I bought two dozen from Murray mcmurray and about 1 in 3 had pinkish feet. I dont think commercial hatcheries are all that careful with rhier breeding programs.

    Jersey giants can develop joint problems if they have to jump up and down from heights of more than 18 inches. Roosting poles close to the ground would be okay but I would avoid creating an environment where they have to do more jumping than necessary.
