Not exactly an emergency or disease, more like a curiosity matter on my part; but this was the most fitting forum I could see to ask.
I have a young flock of Barred Rocks and ISA reds (Rock hatch didn’t go so well, so I picked up the others at TSC to have something to raise with the few I hatched.) They're five and a half weeks, mostly feathered out and starting to look like chickens…
One of the ISA pullets is about half the size of her coopmates and still rough & scraggly looking. A runt. I’m just wondering what issues I might expect down the road with her- general health problems, egg laying issues, whatever.
