Hi, I have a sebright hen that got frostbite on her toe and leg. She's been in for 6 days and all she does is sleep. She eats very little and I can't even bribe her with scrambled eggs, oatmeal or any treats. The toe does not appear to be infected. I've been putting neosporin(without the...

I have a japanese bantam with a prolapsed vent. I found her saturday evening when I was checking on my girls. She had an egg stuck to her and was bleeding. I managed to get the egg off without it breaking but I cant get the vent to stay in. How long can this take? I've been giving her warm...

Hi, I have a 7 month old silkie and she's never been plump but her breast bone is very prominent when you feel it. She doesn't appear skinny because of her feathers but it doesn't seem normal. She is acting fine. Her poop is normal. She is fed layer pellets among other treats scrambled egg...

I have a 4 mos. old silkie with a swollen face. She has not been exposed to any other birds. She was originally with two other silkies that turned out to be roos(came all at the same time from mypetchicken) and were rehomed a couple weeks ago. She's been indoors due to the fact that she's by...

I just got these two today. I have a few questions. I don't know how old they are but the white one with black tail looks young to me. We got them from a woman that has over 40 of them. They are unable to care for them like they did so she needs to find homes for all of them. Her coop wasnt...

I have a 4 mos. old black silkie roo that I need to rehome. He was supposed to be a girl from mypetchicken but turned into a boy like the other one I had. lol He is really sweet and has been raised by my family since he's been a day old. He is not show quality. If anyone is interested, please...

I posted pictures a few weeks ago and the verdict was hen but I'm thinking this silkie looks like a Roo to me. And I thought I heard what was an attempt at a crow. Have you ever seen a female silkie with a comb and wattles like that? Please give me your verdicts! Does she stay or does he go...

I have a white silkie that I am almost positive is a rooster. Unfortunately, I can't keep him. I got him from mypetchicken.com. He is not show quality. He is a sweet little guy. He is a bit skittish but once you got him he settles in nicely and likes to be petted. If you are interested and can...

Here are my 3 babies. I ordered them sexed as girls from my pet chicken although I realize it's not always correct. They are approx. 14 weeks old. I'm really hoping they are truly girls cause I can't have any roo's in the city. They all started doing the bawk bawking sometimes. I...

I thought maybe someone could help. A baby bird (i dont know whatkind) fell with nest from a tree. I don't know what to feed it. Its puttinghis head up to get food. I gave it a couple drops of sugar water for now. Do you think giving it moist chick starter would work? Or if you have any...

They're going through their gangly stage but I still think they are beautiful. This is Delilah. Not sure what color she is. I ordered buff, red, white and black . My son Brad and Miss Wobbles. Poor Miss Wobbles got scared when I took this picture this is lily. She's also not too happy...

I found her this afternoon when I got home. She was a very sweet chick while she was with us for her very short life. She appeared well this morning so I hope she passed without to much suffering. She literally didn't gain any weight since I got her. Thankyou everyone for replying to my...

I have an 8 month old polish hen that's sick. She stopped laying about 2 weeks ago but seemed fine up until about 2 days ago. She didn't lay consistently. She'd lay an egg every 2-4 days. She started laying about 2 months ago. Could she be eggbound? Her belly doesn't appear swollen. I...
