As the head feathers don't really come in until a little bit later than 4wks...I'd say give 'em a few weeks yet. However, it doesn't sound promising.Quick question, at what age could most you identify crested SFH chicks from the non-crested?

I've got one I'm sure is crested (looks like a little roo) and one that has a fluffy brow that might be slightly crested.As the head feathers don't really come in until a little bit later than 4wks...I'd say give 'em a few weeks yet. However, it doesn't sound promising.
Your chick has sprigs. It is a single comb, but with sprigs. To have sprigs this early is unusual in my experience.Hi again everyone! Weird little comb in my 4 week old crested chick (I think it's a roo). Spoke to the breeder and she's not had any grow out of her chicks that had a different comb. Maybe it's not that weird, just doesn't look truly single like it should I was hoping he could be my new flock roo since I have no other crested birds. Oh well
Does she need a little Poultry dust on her?I recently acquired a SFH about 2 months old with snow leopard markings. Very sweet and docile but she seems to scratch all th time and she’d what looks like dandruff. Is this normal?
