In badminton, a "throw" is not a standard or recognized term. However, it may refer to an illegal action where a player uses an underhand or overhand motion to propel the shuttlecock, rather than striking it with the racket. This action can result in a fault, as players must hit the shuttlecock with the racket's strings during play. Proper technique and adherence to the rules are essential for fair play in badminton.
The smash- fast, downward hit onto opponent's side. Forehand- A standard motion of badminton. Usually over your head. Clear- A far shot to the back of your opponent's court. Usually followed by a drop shot.
The facilities of badminton are a place where the sport badminton is played. It's usually located inside a building or complex because the shuttlecock is affected by the wind which can disturb the play.
The standard dimensions of a shuttlecock ground, or court, for badminton are 13.4 meters long and 6.1 meters wide for singles matches, and 13.4 meters long and 7.6 meters wide for doubles matches. The court is divided by a net, which is 1.55 meters high at the center. Additionally, the area around the court typically includes space for players to move and serve.

That depends on the breed. Some breeds (particularly hybrids) have different colors on them, or something like black combs on girls and red on boys. Out of the other breeds, you can tell quite early on most breeds with "hard" feathers, that is standard smooth feathered chooks (chickens), not Silkies etc. The females get their feathers quicker, by the time they are three days old the girls distinctly have more feathers coming in their wings and the boys have hardly any. By the time the girls are fully covered with feathers the boys are still half bald. This works on all the hard feathered breeds I have seen, including Australorp, Rhode island red, leghorns, Sebrights, and various mongrels. However this will not work on breeds such as Silkies or frizzle, and it doesn't work on standard Orpingtons either, these are not hard feathered varieties and don't work the same. With these you have to wait until they start to look like roosters and hens. Also: universal for all breeds but very hard to tell: When startled, the females will "duck and cover", the males will stand up tall and sound the alarm.
Yes, that is the standard covering of a bird.
