Yeah, pretty normal! I had one drake and four females; my Mallard lady rarely got love, and one of my Welsh Harlequin girls had a bare back neck! They do seem to pick favorites. If your ratio is off, I would definitely suggest adding more girls! ;) If you can't, you can also get rid of some...

Haha so, the chickens are Light Sussex chickens, not White Leghorns or Columbian Rocks. I finally asked my uncle, lol. Here are more pictures!

I think they're White Leghorns, but I have no idea. They also may not be pure. They're just for eggs and meat, so we don't care haha.

Thank you! Also, I said 4 but we have 5 hens haha. Six Leghorns all together. These guys are gonna be bred for larger chickens for food. These ones aren't necessarily for food(though healthy culls will be eaten) just eggs and breeding. I'm not sure how old they are. They aren't "mine" per say...

Thank you! (: We have one rooster too, just didn't get a good picture of him. ETA: Pictures of the rooster! (:

Here are the chickens! White Leghorns, I believe. Two were culled today, so we have six left.

Oh wow, they look like Welsh Harlequins! Very interesting!

TexasLisa, I'm near London, KY, about 2 hours away from Lexington. ChicKat, I will try, but the phone I use to get online isn't mine so I would have to ask permission to use her phone to take pictures. On the trip my (very expensive) camera broke. D: But she's a very generous person so it's...
