I hatched out an Easter Egger and it is nine weeks old. She keeps getting poop stuck to her butt and we noticed a reddish thing sticking out of her bottom. There is blood all over the roosting rod in the coop and I think it is coming from her. Is there anything I can do?
My black Australorp hen is acting very strange. My rooster pulled the feathers off her back and clawed her up. Her skin is a purple color. We sold the roo that way he would not kill them. Normally she doesn't let you hold her but now she just sits with her eyes closed. We thought she was going...
I just hatched some buff Orpingtons a few days ago. I have seen them drinking but they aren't eating. One chick has pecked at the feeder a few times but none of them have eaten out of it. What should I do to get them to eat?
Thank you!
I have noticed that one of my chick seems to shiver when I pick it up away from the light. The chick is almost fully feathered though. It also seems to be breathing hard. I have never had this happen. Is it sick?
Are an olive egger hen's first eggs green or do they start of pale? My Olive Egged has not been laying any green eggs and I was wondering if the small pale ones I have been getting are hers. She is an f2 olive egger.
I have recently started 4h club and they have poultry judging. What breed is best. I want something dosile. It doesn't really matter if it can lay. My top breeds are porclein booted bantams, Hamburgs, Cubalayas, Seabrights,Sicilian buttercups. I am only twelve so I need something dosile.
