Hey Tripp, so you have 2 girls, and congrats on the eggs, when my girls are broody they walk around looking like Sumo wrestlers all puffed up and squeak at everyone and everything. Once they feel they have enough eggs you'll start noticing feathers inside the nest, thats usually a pretty good sign they are serious.
bet the one with bald patches is a roosterHeres my chicks, theyv'e grown so much, the black chick has bald patches :/, They take the chicks so far now right up to the top gate!
I dont think it realised it was the wrong mother!:
when it found its real mam:
really? how do you know?
just been my experience. Not always but many times my chicks who have the bald spots are roo's. A rooster puts it's nutrition towards body size before feathers. It isn't a 100% way to tell, but a good sign it maybe a rooster
Interesting, now I have to go outside and see if i have any chicks with bald spots. LOL
Oh, I don't mind it being a boy aslong as the other chicks is female....
meat birds are just freaks of natureIt worked well on one i have, does the same for meat birds though.
