i ordered 10 chicks a few weeks back, in the end the company could only deliver 7...4 dark 3 lighter (yipee i thought, 4 girls 3 boys)
but as they've been growing ive become suspicious that they are not actuallyBarred rocks (called Amrocks over here in Belgium).
for a start only 2 have a single comb....the others have nothing where the comb should be (pea comb?).....2 others have what seems to be feather stumps appearing on their legs....and one of the darker coloured chicks comb and wattles are developing very quickly and it screams ROO to me! what do you think? a cross with something or just really poor quality BR's?
