Hi! New mom to LOTS of chicks. I currently have 12 inside and 9 outside.
My question is this:
My ordered from Meyer 7 week old green queen is drastically larger than the rest of my 7 week olds. Feathering is coming in odd. No back feathers yet-just fluff. Comb is pea as it should be and yellow/pinkish. No tail feathers. Legs, body, head are huge compared to the others. Do I have an accidental roo? I’m zoned agricultural, so I have no worries there. Just not ready to hatch and raise chicks.
Let me know what you guys think. And thanks in advance!!
I apologize for the pics. Red light is from my week old chicks next to their spot.
