Hello 👋 My favorite hen a salmon favorelle named Brandi is having some problems with her feet. (It's always your favorite that's sick 😅) I went on a short camping trip, with double the food and water, so they were fine with that when I came back, but when I saw my girl she had bloody feet! When...

I understand it's not a treatment, I'm just informing that I am using the medicated feed. I'll look into it, thank you 👍🏻

Woke up and one of my babies made this color poop on top of the brooder plate They hatched a week ago, everyone is lively and happy, eating normally. They have a brooder plate, not a heat lamp, I'm feeding them medicated feed. Should I be concerned?

Thank you, I'll try not to worry to much, everyone is happy and thriving and honestly, that one is the sassiest of the bunch so 🤷 who knows! Glad to hear that running behind hatchmates can be normal

I guess my main concern is if she is okay, because of the developmental differences and I Assumed were hatched the same day or close to the same day.

My little salmon favorelles (now 5 days old) we're supposed to be both pullets and now I'm worried one might be a cockrel(or possibly not developing) because she isn't growing her wing feathers, at all, just looks like a bigger version of the day I got her... Is it possible? I'm not allowed to...

Im using a sanded scrap piece of 2x4 which has helped keep the poop out, and once I switch to shavings, should help with that too... At least to an extent lol 😆

I've heard of them eating shavings, and seen it at TS I know they can, I've already provided some grit so when they do get transferred that they have an easier time digesting it if they end up eating it. Again probably not for a few days till a week

I ordered all pullets, I know there is bound to be a mistake though, I'm thinking the one SF could possibly be a roo 🤷 won't know for a few weeks for sure as far as bedding I plan on transferring them to large 100% pine flakes here in a few days, mainly I wanted to make sure I could see the...

Just got my babies in and I know you guys will appreciate the photos This is my first time with chickens, I've been researching for a few months now before we got them. We ordered from Meyer hatchery I got 2 salmon favorelles, 2 golden laced wyandottes, 2 lakeside eggers, 1 buff Orpington, and...
