Age of chicken?

Date sort Score sort
Welcome to BYC.
A few things I've noticed, older hens & roosters tend to show age around their eyes. The eyes have a more sunken look- not unhealthy, just less fleshy looking than younger chickens. The scales on their legs are not as smooth but scaley leg mites may affect the scales as well. Also their behavior might not be as chipper, not as playful as the younger crowd. They will still be active but generally not as flighty.
