2 week chick

  1. faithsbrood

    My mother hen has abandoned her chick at only a little over two weeks old. What can I do?

    Chick ID? Easter eggers and more ?

    So from previous posts I’ve come to realize TSC isn’t the most reliable for gendering and breeding right, but as the chicks are getting older I bought what I thought were 7 Easter egger pullets and I’m thinking there’s some mix ins for breeds which is fine it’s just interesting to watch them...
