Hi all!
First time chick momma here and I got 2.5 week old babies that I love. 2 of the 5 chicks we got are black australorps (we ordered one but the hatchery gave us a bonus baby). We ordered pullets, and we’ve been noticing one is feathing significantly slower than all the other chicks, including it’s australorp sibling.
Here is a side by side of the two australorps. Poppy on the left feathering like the other 3 chicks and Persephone on the right with slow feathering compared to the rest. Is this an indicator of potential cockerel?
Thanks in advance!
