Hiya, so I have a broody chicken and she is very fussy when it comes to laying and if I disturb her ‘laying spot’ then she will find somewhere else. She is broody atm and I want to move her from her hutch because she I living with 3 boys (breeding plan gone wrong) and there are obvious signs of...

Yes! (I have just gone out to check her and she has laid an egg but will not move off it, interested to see what she does tomorrow.)

Hiya, I have a fairly new layer (3 months??) and I have noticed that after the past few days she has been sitting in the nesting box in the morning and evenings, with no egg being laid, but walking around midday just fine. What could the reason for this be?

I am not sure but I will wash out the eye

Hi everyone I have noticed in one of my two week old chicks eye discharge coming out of his eye I am really worried and scared please can someone help

I wouldn’t advise this because you are then basically committed to having pets as soon as the food stops they will go for your chickens. They will also become tamer and get closer and nearer the Chicken house

Hi everyone I’m afraid a fox got him he was one of my best boys but at least he has gone to good use!

This is a picture of his poop His comb goes purple and the. I give him water and food and it changes within 5 minutes I have ordered vet wrap and there is no bruising. I think he may have lice I couldn’t get a proper look.

I have examined him nothing seems out of the ordinary he keeps sitting down and shutting his eyes, very lethargic could this be because of the pain?

Possibly but he is the boss even though he is injured his brother is still scared of him

His name is Charlie and he is a Bielfelder I think that’s how you spell it

This is the bottom of his foot (mud)

His comb has starters to turn purple why?
