Hello- I have two Plymouth Rocks and two Rhode Island Reds who will be exactly one week old tomorrow. Both Rhodies and One of the Plymouth Rocks are coming along nicely, they have gorgeous wings coming in, their baby "tooth" has fallen off, and they even have some comb on their heads!
It's my other Plymouth that concerns me.
I have seen another topic about someone who was worried their slow developer may be a roo (All of mine are SUPPOSED to be girls, I ordered them from a hatchery), but I think this might be a little different.
My Plymouth Rock has the same amount of comb as her 'sisters', her legs seem to be the same thickness- but she is covered in a lot more down then the others and she STILL has her little baby "tooth". She also has wings that are twice as short then the others. I will try to post pictures in a moment.
I am really hoping that she is not a roo- but then I'm concerned as to why she would be developing so differently. Also- maybe she has something wrong with her wings? And what is with that tooth still hanging on there?
I look forward to any advice on this...
Thanks!
