There something I noticed. I don't know what it is. But its swelled a bit on lower beak. I thought canker bit its not anything like it. Its pink sore like. I don't know if he fought with roo as he can get to the other and pit head through the fence where I got him. Its gum colored little swelled not like canker of yellow weird looking. Should I just keep an eye on it?

The beak colored bump under his lower beak? Might just be a weird beak growth... Hard to tell.

Yeah but If u lookin his beak its slightly swelled pink not anything like canker. I'm thinking he got in a scuffle between the cage with the rooster next to him when I got him...i hope

silkies are a great breed to have. they are calm, and make great mothers as most of you probably know. i had 1 hen hatch some geese for me this past spring.

One of mine crows like a robot toy. Maybe you'd get lucky and get one of those. And maybe you have a kid that would be playing with a robot at 5:00 am.
