Exactly what I said! But she is a hen! For a long time she was a runt, and even her crest wasn't growing. I gave her vitamins, etc. and within a month she "caught up," with the others and now is a bit bigger than they are.

I thought Baby was a roo too. Pointy crest feathers and pointy hackle feathers appearing. Is she laying?

I keep an old towel and a pair of scissors in the coop. Sometimes I plunk myself down on a clean cinderboclk and give all my girls and boys a haircut. They know whats coming and only squak for the first couple of minutes. Mostly they like the good petting I give them.

Keeping them trimmed really makes a difference.

I have three and they are the dumbest chicken I have ever seen or owned. Will be interesting to see how long they survive. They differently are at the bottom of the pecking order.
