and Welcome to Backyard Chickens.
to have you here with us. Enjoy your time here at BYC!
Welcome to BYC!!Hi! I’m on a new adventure, Chicken Mom! It’s fun and rewarding so far. 4 hens 2 months old. I have extreme heat here in east Texas. 2 of the girls have red spots and dirty heads. What could this be? I need some advice. I’ve googled until I can’t. Thanks so much!

Welcome to BYC!!
Your birds look fine, they usually got red when they’re hot or stressed, and dirty from dust baths or normal chicken business.
Thank you everyone! I love BYC!
