Hi
I've got 2 silkie chicks which hatched about...2 weeks ago and one of them it large, blue and incredibly loud, while the other is quiet and has yellow feet.
Is this normal? This one hatched a day later than the other one, and that one hatched the last day before I was about to chuck the eggs out! It is fairly small for its age, and is...bullied by the mother (I think she has favourites). Of course, since she has 2 foster mommies, the other one is nicer to her.
Below is a picture of the toes:
Any ideas? Or am I just freaking out? These are my first chicks to actually hatch in my house, if that makes any difference XD
Thanks
