Still too skinny. It shouldn't be like that unless it's like 8 weeks old

I understand completely what he said. I also understand that the English language is quickly deteriorating.

He didn't say "omg that burd looks sus" he has been using full sentences to convey his opinion thus far. I see no reason to grab one obviously shortened expression and wave it around saying the english language is quickly deteriorating.

"How that be" is a quote from a movie I rather enjoy.
So ya it was written like that for a reason.

Good job! I have now taught two people good grammar ! And you even added the word “rather”, which is quite uncommon nowadays .

 

[Shabby Chic-Hens]

Nope.

Fine!
I’m still gaining that title.

Take a full body pic from the side when you get a chance.
She does look too skinny to me. Even for a buff.

She's eating fine but I will get one. (she does sometimes get picked on away from the food. )

Who said she was healthy and eating fine?
You can play this war game and say every buff that stops in is fabulous but for a moment I'm beyond all that and saying that hen indeed looks underweight.
Even for a hatchery Orp it doesn't look properly balanced that's why I asked for a pic that shows more. Idk if Hank's looking for a cheerleader to hip hip hooray his hen or is legitimately asking for an honest opinion.
You can do the former and I'll do the latter. How that be?

I believe she's healthy but I can tell 100% for sure.

Maybe she's posing funky in this pic, but it really does look like she's skinny, almost like you could just slip her into a sausage casing floof and all.

Even "skinny" hatchery orps need a bit more chonk to em. If she was a leghorn, nooo, but for an orp, yes.

Here are mine when I got them. This is about as skinny as you ever want to see them.View attachment 3345947

Yes I do believe the picture isn't the best.

100%. Looks like a Minorca with no comb

Ummm, no she doesn't.

 

[JacinLarkwell]

Ummm, no she doesn't.

Same body size from the photo we got of her. Not meant as an insult, just explaining what she looks like to me. She's too slender. Give me a moment to see if I can dig up the one or two photos I had of my minorca to show what I'm seeing
