Uneven breasts?

[hoisinga]

Two of our 4 chickens have drastically uneven pecs. Is this normal? (they are eating and laying just fine....)

You're sure you aren't just looking at their crops, yes?

Have you felt them?

Feel the center. . . Do you feel a curved or bent breastbone?

If it's the right side that is larger, it is the "crop" (the place they store food) It is normal for it to be large, sometimes very large. If it goes down overnight that is normal.

Oh!! I have a lot to learn. Yes, they got many treats that day from compost and weeding, and it was the right side. thanks!
