The only one I never worried about...
Our take
In a delightful twist of chick-raising adventures, one chicken enthusiast finds themselves pondering the mystery of their feathered friends, specifically Chandler, who seems to defy expectations. Initially confident that Chandler was a boy, the telltale signs—like that flipped-up tail feather and the distinct barred neck pattern—have sparked doubts. At just 8 weeks old, this batch of chicks is not just adorable but also loves to snuggle, except for that one stunningly enigmatic chick. With a playful wink at the quirks of auto-sex breeds, this chicken keeper is left hoping for a twist in the tale: “Please tell me I'm wrong, and that Chandler is a girl!” Join in on this cluck-tastic conundrum as we celebrate the whimsical world of chickens!
 | Sapphire gems, both of them, auto sex breed... Wellllll I think I missed something here, because I'm pretty sure Chandler is a boy, which ruins the whole joke. Until today, I just figured that because they are a cross breed, that they will have various features that differ. Then I noticed that flipped up tail feather, and the barred pattern on the neck. They are about 8 weeks old. This batch of chicks loves to cuddle - except that one gorgeous one. Please, someone tell me I'm wrong, and that Chandler is a girl! (I trimmed their wings, fyi, so that shape is unnatural) [link] [comments] |
