Black Beaks On Babies

Featured Replies

Posted

I had my first clutch of babies, none of them had black beaks. I am used to seeing pictures of babies with black beaks. Why do my babies all have normal colored beaks whereas some babies have blackened beaks?

Black beaks occur on chicks with a decent amount of melanin...it fades off over a couple of weeks. nothing to worry about if yours dont have black beaks
