We have a 16 week speckled Sussex (Demetrius) that seems to have developed a larger redder comb and waddle faster than the 3 other chickens we received at the same time, born the same day. (Brahma, black sexlink, and Delaware) And seems to have longer tail feathers then usual female Sussex. She...

We bought Speckled Sussex hatching eggs earlier this year. We got a good hatch rate and ended up with 4 roos and 3 hens. I noticed that 2 out of the 3 hens (not roos) might have eye site issues. But one looks perfectly fine and by my knowledge the roos as well. I can't know for sure if they were...
