So, I just bought this barely used lab incubator for 400, I don't have it yet, but im super excited! Brand new it's like $12,000 It's 6 feet tall, 3 feet deep, and 4 feet wide. I'm planning on converting it into an egg incubator. I know this has an adjustable temperature, and you can plug...

Hello! I have currently have one main flock covered by 2 splash Ameraucanas and have been experimenting with all the fun colored (and bearded!!) babies. :celebrate The barred rock/Ameraucanas are currently my favorite due to the males growing up barred. Basically I want to create a line of...

I bought 5 chicks at a local family farm and home, that were sold as golden comets, but they lay green eggs. I have had golden comets + isa browns in the past, and they have always laid brown eggs so I am kinda confused. They also have white earlobes, not sure if that's a clue or not. I know...

This is a 5 week golden comet (or so we were told). Is it a hen or a roo?

Since mid July I have lost (on average) 1-3 chickens per month. The symptoms are typically the same- beginning with a lethargic chicken. They then progress into unbalanced chickens with drooping wings and poop all over their rears. The chickens then proceed to slowly die, typically after...

Since July my flock of silkies have been getting a strange illness. It started with a year old hen, she dropped off quick, first lethargic barely moving then dying within the 2nd day dead. I thought that was the end of it until 3 weeks later a year old rooster, showing different symptoms...

No other symptoms, just her panting, but I can hear her breathing fairly loud

My silkie roo is acting off, standing around (eyes open), yellow, runny poop, and kinda wobbly. A little bunched up and just not acting right. My flock have had mites recently, and I just finished treatment. Any help would be appreciated!!

My chickens have mites. I am working on treating right now but I'm so confused at what kind of mites they are. I think they are Northern fowl mites, but they are ripping the feathers apart on my chickens I don't know what to do. This is one of the most affected chickens feathers, do you have any...

My 4 week chicks seem to have cocci (bloody poop, lethargic, etc). They were home hatched so they aren't vaccinated, they have been on medicated chick food. Our local Tsc was out of corid so I ordered some off Amazon. At the moment the chicks have some sav a chick electrolytes in their water...

One of my three year old hens lays a bloody egg. I mean BLOODY egg. She has laid it every egg of her life, I am fed up with it. I can't sell eggs anymore because it's DISGUSTING. 🤢 Is there a way to stop this? She isn't in pain, and acts completely normal. I have to separate every egg that...

I have 2 flocks about to be combined as well as accepting a small flock from a friend. I wanted to deworm and give some corid to the flocks to build up immunity (I will be quarantining the new additions first). Is it normal to use corid to help chickens build an antibody? Also is it a problem to...

The coop is about 6x9 (probably bigger). 8 ft tall at the peak and 4 at the lowest part of the slope. The coop is also raised, so there is a spot for them to be outside in the rain. Technically speaking that fits about 14 chickens. But I need the coop to fit double. (29) I don't want them all...

I am thinking one of my hens has worms. She hasn't laid an egg in a few weeks, I have seen a few bloody poops around the coop, and I don't know what the problem could be, if it's not worms. Does anyone know of an effective dewormer to treat the flock of five, just so no one else gets them. Thanks!

Today one of my two silkie chicks died. That leaves one by herself. They are TINY I cant get a TSC chick because they will pick on her and their bantams are pretty grown up. But I don't want an unsocial chick. Suggestions would be great!! Thank you!

One of my hens- Ollie hasn't laid an egg in a few days. She also isn't acting very healthy. I am pretty sure she is egg bound😵 This week has sucked- I lost 3 chick/chickens. Can I fix the problem?

I have 2 silkie chicks. I got them Friday. They are tiny! One sleeps constantly! I pick it up and it immediately sleeps again. The other is active. I have sugar water in their brooder to hopefully help it perk up. What could be the problem? I don't want to lose her, I already lost a chicken...

My year old hen Corona was attacked by our neighbors dog. She has lost a lot of back feathers and is in the garage right now. Not sure if she can walk, she is dazed. I don't know what to do.

One of my 6 laying hens came out of the coop today with a runny nose and sneezing. I haven't introduced any new birds and she was acting perfectly fine yesterday. Is there anything I can do to help her get better quick? Thank you!!
