    Tried searching for a breakdown between the two and didn’t find anything… so apologies if this is a repeat. What are the differences between a Delaware and Columbian Wyandotte (hen)? Visually they look very similar. I’m sure there are small characteristics that make it obvious which is which...

    Chicken balding??

    I recently noticed a bald spot on my Delaware chicken's back. It's not very big just looking at it but when I spread her feathers I saw that many more feathers were missing.

    Aggressive Pullet???

    We received 3 Delawares (1 cockerel, 2 pullets) from a family who could not raise them, as they live in the city. As they were leaving, they mentioned that one of the pullets liked to peck them.
