I have read that pullets will feather wings and tails before cockerals will. is that a wives tail? if not does it only apply to certain breeds? I have 5 orpington chicks. 3 are blue black or splash, (I cant tell colors yet) 2 are buff x splash and odd colored. 3 have wing and tail feathers 1 has wing and scraggly tail feather and one , who is the biggest one of them all still has fuzz and no feathers to speak of. They are about 10 to 12 days old now. I have a couple pics but not the best, man they are quick little things! blurry pics!!
