kind of a random question, but has anyone ever had a "special" pullet???
i've been watching my birds for the past week after moving them out into their run, and been noticing one hen thats not like the rest. at first i thought she was sick or maybe the lower one on the pecking order. but it doesn't seem to be anything like that. i began to realize she was just kind of "different". slower. more laid back. a little bit sweeter temperament. not crazy frantic a.d.d. like the rest of her siblings. almost like she doesn't really notice what else is going on around her, just does her thing.
i pointed it out to my friend, and he laughed at me. but at that very second, a blade of grass poked her on the side of her head, and she slowly turned to look at it wonderingly, as if thinking "oh...is this what they call grass?" and then bit it slowly. since then we call her "the special one."
anyway, just wondering if she's all right, even if she's not like all the other kids.
