Oh its so fluffy! And you're right, no eyes

Well, it also has a huge belly. Not sure what's going on with that, we'll see if it goes down. It doesn't talk as much as the other chick either. But it tries to move around if it thinks it's getting left alone or will move towards the other chick or me if we talk to it.

Is it an albino? Is that why it has abnormalities? Or possibly other genetic reasons?

I do hope it will make it.

Not an albino, just a white. It could be a genetic abnormality, or maybe damage in shipping, etc.

I'm naming the Standard chick Blue. I'll be sending out his eggshell for DNA testing today.

He's trying to be an emu chick. Very chatty now, I suspect to try to hear where everyone else is. He finds me or Blue and snuggles up, like this.

Belly is still very big, though. That's gonna need to go down.

 

[JacinLarkwell]

So if the belly does go down are you planning to keep it still?

Well, I'm gonna keep it as long as it doesn't seem like it's in pain or discomfort. But its belly is still huge.
