My coop will be finished this weekend and now to fill it. A friend of a friend has 6 RIR pullets, hatched in March, that he is willing to sell me. Why question is, what should I be looking for when I go look at them tonight? I am assuming, much like picking out any other animal, I want the following:
1. Shiny feathers
2. Clear, bright looking eyes
3. Moderately plump (not scrawny)
4. No discharge anywhere
5. Active and curious
Does this all look right and did I miss anything critical?
Thanks,
Karen
