shank feathering

[doxies1]

Do hatchlings always have feathering if they are going to be feathered and do clean legged hatchlings always stay clean legged?

Oh! No answers! I was searching for this too. Anyone know the answer? I have a week-old BCM chick without shank feathers. Might they still come in?

this is correct.. if a chick hatches without shank feathering they will NOT develope shank feathering...
