Random Blood Droplets in Coop

Sorry. I lost a few sexlinks to that too.

First time with Sex Links and not sure I'll get them again. Same batch but three have primary white tips, the other three look just like NH Red hens. All the ones with the white have had severe internal issues. Down to just one now.

I don't like nor recommend them. They are quite prone to internal issues.

Forgot to ask, any estimate of how long she has been bleeding?

I thought the OP was not able to see evidence of active bleeding on the birds when she checked?

Maybe take a good look at your sex link then?

Sorry, I meant an estimate of how long one of the chickens has been bleeding (no particular chicken).

Starting to notice this, it is a constant issue and they seem to have a lot of internal flock conflict. Even my RIR's didn't bicker this much. Great personalities though, but I won't have anymore. Think next round for the new ones I'll get some breeder types.

They're definitely much more aggressive and forward than many other breeds. Hopefully you find some you like.

Anyone missing a toenail?

Bed bug fecal matter is made up of consumed blood... Was it bright red or more brown and rusty?

My hunch is a slight comb injury. Let us know what you see in the morning.
