No infection that I can tell. No injury or callous or anything if the sort. Possibly ur right about the nutritional def. thanks a lot!

My advanced chick turned out to be a Rooster...stay tuned!

Oh great LOL there are 2 that I am iffy about - 4 out of my 6 are feathering out nicely yet the other 2 don't have nearly as many as the others, so I will be keeping an eye on them. I have given them all a diff coloured tag for their leg so I can tell them apart and our son can name them lol

As for what they did today, they had their first chick grit and a few treats, which they are still unsure of LOL but boy do they LOVE boiled egg!

Haha he's so funny! I brought home some little Bantams today and have the smallest one (a little cockerel) in a little brooder in the house. I went to check on him earlier and he was sleeping neck sprawled out and face tucked down in the straw. He reminded me of Pig Pen here. I will try to get pictures tomorrow.

That they are! Thought my husband was going to have a stroke when I told him I brought home four bantams, one american game, and a New Hampshire(?) today. That's on top of the 26 others we already had.

I've only got Pigpen and Lucy right now cuz we really don't have that much room, but I want to get one or two more. Pigpen's kind of a mutt between a white leghorn and something with brown feathers and Lucy's a black sex link. I want a barred rock or a Columbian Wyondette (don't know if I spelled that right) ill make room! Lol

No he gets up bright and early at 4 am and goes strong all day. The narcolepsy kicks in about 8pm lol

My chickens spent their time defending their yard against the various songbirds who tried to land in it. They charge any intruder, all who immediately take to the wing when they see about thirty chickens thundering towards them honking like angry geese. Them songbirds. Give 'em an inch and they'll take over your territory.
