Okay, Come to think of it, I have 5 chicks and it looks like only one is a hen!Oh yeah. Now is about the time they start establishing the order. Especially if you have a bunch of roosters.
Where did you get them from? What breeds(s)? If you post pictures I can help you sex them.Okay, Come to think of it, I have 5 chicks and it looks like only one is a hen!
Play fighting, as well as a bit of practice with pecking order.My 2-week old chicks are doing this kangaroo fighting thing, stretching their necks and look like they are trying to 1-up each other. Is this the starting of establishing pecking order?
Just post some when you get them. If I cant help I know someone who can.My chicks are cross breeds of my own farm. I don't have pictures currently though...
