i have six tophat babies i have one much bigger than the rest... and it has 10 toes!!! does that happen alot? does it mean anything?
also, i have one who lays his head back, all the way back until it rests on his chest. this is a new thing, and if i stand back where he doesnt notice me, he will walk around normal... im thinking its just because their brooder doestn have see through sides, and he doesnt know im coming? idk, kind of worries me... any expertise?
also... they have been picking on one, and pulling his head feathers out, and of course, where there is raw skin, they will continue to peck.. i have been putting bluekote on it, do i need to seperate him?
when should i put them out with the new chickens? 8 weeks?
its been 104 here lately, im worried about them over heating if i put them outside...
much appreciate it!
