Hi All,
Just moved the girls outside to their coup at night this week as they are now all over 4 weeks old and it is warm enough. They came to visit me today, I work from home and they like to pop (poop lol) up on my computer monitor until I shoo them away. 2 of them have red marks above their beaks. Once I was able to get pictures and zoom in, the red marks are actually missing skin. Is this from pecking eachother? I don't see them fighting or being aggressive during the day but maybe now that they are in the coup at night? Anyone else had this issue before? Any chance this is part of beak/comb development (doubting but trying to cover all bases)?
