I got lots of pictures this time as my last attempt got no responses. Marsala is almost 7 weeks old. had a tail at 4 days old. she twitches her head a bit so its hard to get good pics. she's had a nervous twitch since the begining, doesnt seem to have any mites or parasites that i can tell. thanks, lisa








 
It's common for hatchery SS to have lots of white. My girl had a nearly white face, lots of large splotches on the front, and loose feathering. So, very far from SQ but a lovely little hen anyway. I look more at stance and body shape on this breed and your girl leaves little room for doubt there.
 
I was a little worried today when i noticed she was getting tiny pinkish/red wattles but her comb still seems the same yellowy color so hoping the pink mini wattle means nothing? thanks-lisa
 
I have 2 Speckled Sussex chicks that are about 4-5 weeks old. Bought them as straight run from TSC. Any way I can tell if they're hens or roos??
