The rooster is 3lbs 11oz, the hen is 4lbs, 6oz. Both have smooth feet, and 4 toes. The rooster has a few feathers on his feet, but they aren’t obvious unless you look closely at his legs. He’s rather skittish, and he tends to squawk really loudly; as of yet I haven’t heard him crow. The hen is ratherbskittish as well, but seems less active than the other two.
I’m told the third hen is a Plymouth Rock. She weighs 4lbs 4oz. She’s rather calm, and warmed up to me quickly.
Also, I am aware the hens have a case of scaly leg mite; I treated them with ivermectin this morning, and will begin coating their feet in almond oil and heavily diluted oregano, among other essential oils, tonight. That seemed to work well the last time I had issues with scaly leg mite.
