Bird momma of 5
In the Brooder
This is my 2nd flock, so I'll skip many questions. After we lost our 1st flock in ONE NIGHT, we bought 5 more from the Amish. While a rocky start, we love them and see how they are CONSTANTLY changing, especially in personality. HERE IS THE QUESTION. I have 4 (I think) hens and one rooster. My Plymouth Rocks are IDENTICAL , after 6 months, I still can't tell them apart until they eat meal worms out of my hands. One of my Plymouth Rocks are in question. No spur, yet no egg..as of this week??? Today I came home to let the "kids" out and I had 6.....SIX eggs. My silkie who is GREAT with the eggs already laid this a.m. ANY THOUGHTS? OH...how do you tell if they have lice. I'm sure this was asked a million times.
