I have a large fowl hen, of silkie, game, and sex-link linage, who has been setting for a long time, well over 21 days. She is new to setting, and a few times I had to take her off the nest so that she could eat, drink, and let the eggs cool. Well, today she hatched a chick, and I gotta say... it's the weirdest looking chick I've EVER seen. First off, its skin is squishy and sticky, and its down seems scarce,. Second, one side of its face is very small, and the other side of its face is large and puffy. Apart from its physical defects, it looks and sounds healthy.
Does anyone know what might be wrong with it? :-/
