so i have found a 2 tiny "poopy" eggs in the last few weeks in my polish pen and have been getting alot less large eggs... they are the size of a dime... what is wrong? I do think they are molting... could that be it?
 
I have been looking for a bit of help with a couple things and it seems this is the only forum to go to right now, so please humor me :)
I have two Polish and some Houdans. Regarding the Houdans; they were all supposed to be pullets but one is developing pink waddles. Boy, right? Also, I noticed that their caps are different in shape. Some Houdans have very full found caps and others have 'chef hats' instead. Any ideas on what this is about?
My SL Polish pullet is showing off a great round cap but I don't see any signs of lacing. Is that something that develops more with age as I know it does with other breeds like the D'Anvers and D'Uccle??

Thank you. I also have a Dunn hen who is just so sweet. My kids LOVE her. I might breed down the road but finding a roo is tough here. My GF got a roo but hers is lots of colors and I am suspicious because she bought it from a feed store-- a nice one, but still. I'll take pictures of him at some point. She might let me 'borrow' him.

My two cents.....the pink waddles are a boyish sign for sure. The rounder crests are girlish signs, the chef hats are boyish signs.....BUT i have had mohawks and chef hats be girls so I know that one is not always true. No idea on the lacing.....how old? My Golden Laced was about 8 weeks or so when it became more noticeable. My others are solid colors.

Oh and I have a frizzle that I thought was a WCB, and it looks like it is turning cuckoo! Should be awesome. Black face, looks like it is wearing a superhero mask. Praying for this one to be a female. Will get pics up. I see the pink wattles, I am still hoping....BUT this one had a super huge round skull and acts like a girl so time will tell....only 3 1/2 weeks old.
