adults vs. chicks when chicks are older

• by Horst_Laven

  How can I distinguish chicks from adults when chicks are already "grown up"? (see e.g. picture) should I mark the chicks as adults?

  Hi Horst Lavan
  The adults and chicks moult at the same time so it is pretty well impossible to tell them apart. Even the scientists can't tell.
  So in this case, please follow our general rule of if in doubt, mark them as adults.

  Happy counting
