Ok, first to start off, I hope that this is in the right section.... So lately my one EE (named Hazel) has been having runny poop. I have waited a bit to see if it has passed by, and it just hasn't passed. Her vent feathers have some on it, so they are getting kind of yucky, but she is...

Hi all!! Towards the end of March I got two Easter Eggers. They were both day olds--both from the same hatch. One I named Hazel and one I named Pippy.

Ok so I have a hen (Buttermilk) that's around three... I got her from someone who didn't want them anymore and I just assumed her and her sister (Bisquick) were New Hampshire Reds since they weren't as dark as Rhode Island Reds.... But this year I'm going to show Buttermilk and I need to know...
