1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.) The pullet who's limping is about 10 months old, (she's a buff orpington). She doesn't seem lighter than the others at all. 2) What is the behavior, exactly. Her middle toe looks sideways...

Hi, I bought some red jungle fowl hybrid eggs from someone on eBay after making a thread without success. Turns out the seller @Florida Bullfrog is on byc. So I've got 7 eggs that arrived a while ago. Recently (today) i pulled out 3 that had wobbly air cells and didn't develop. I'm going to...

I have an old play house that was converted to a coop. Its 17² ft (how do you get 17² feet you ask? by having a tree go though the middle of course) currently there are 4 chickens in there. There are 3 windows that provide 8 feet of ventilation, but only during the day. Is that enough? My dad...

This morning I noticed that my Pullet, lady, was kinda loudly sneezing I think? I brought her inside and she stopped after a few minutes. I didn't get a video but if she starts again I will. Could this just be her calling or expressing her dominance? She is fine otherwise and I don't know about...

I have three 10 1/2 week old chicks. I was wondering about gender because we aren't allowed to have roosters. There is one each of a barred rock, a Cuckoo maran, and a buff orpington. They were all bought as pullets but the maran and the Orpington have been kinda chest bumping? The maran is...

We bought three chicks on July 25. They are 5 weeks old and I was wondering if someone could tell what their gender is. We bought them as pullets but we aren't so sure about the buff orpington. . . . The first one is a cuckoo Maran then a barred rock then a buff orpington. !
