    Howdy! My new found hobby (raising chickens) has led me to your forum seeking answers to everything from "is it a pullet or cockeral?" to "what is WRONG with that chicken"? I began last August with two chicks. Roman and Juliet, Japanese Buff Bantams, who are inseparable. She has laid one egg...
