Someone gave me some "wild" turkey eggs. 10 hatched and all 10 died in a day or so. I got an older turkey and a chick to help teach them to eat and drink. Then the other 6 hatched. One died in incubator. Others are very sickly now. The chick that I got to help them learn from is now sick. I...

I got 2 lavender orps yesterday and when I got home one was pretty lifeless; not eating, drinking, running around. So I took it in the house to make sure that it was eating and drinking. I added vitamins/electrolytes and antibiotics to the water. Made it drink and eat every so often. It made it...

I have lost 2 chickens to Infectious Laryngotracheitis. I took one to the vet today and had to have her put down. The vet told me to get a vaccine for this, but I'm having a hard time finding a place to get it that doesn't charge $50 for shipping. Anyone know where the best place might be?

does anyone know what these 2 ladies might be. they both have 5 toes. the red one I got from Tractor Supply in the spring.

I have a bantam chicken that has been sick for 1 1/2 weeks. She wasn't eating, but we have been able to get her to eat. She doesn't want to walk and when she falls over she can't get back up on her own. One side of her breast is swollen compared to the other side. I have her inside in an open...

I was wondering what everyone does with the black chicks that are hatched from blrw. I have a couple and really like them, but not sure how to sell others that I will hatch out.

I just noticed that my blrw rooster's wings seem to be injured or something. I can't seem to hold them properly. When we try to move it, it doesn't seem to hurt him. what could be wrong?

I met someone at Tractor Supply today who told me that she has rose colored and rosed colored splash silkies. Is that possible?

We went to TSC today and got a few bantams. I'm pretty sure we got a couple of buff silkies and maybe a salmon faverolle. Tell me what you think. There is grey/lavender chick that we aren't sure about. Thanks

I bought this rooster at the North Georgia Swap in the Fall. He is supposed to be a Jersey Giant, but he doesn't look like a JG since his coloring is way off. The hen is all black, but not sure if she is a JG either. What could he be?

I had asked one time before, but didn't get a clear answer. I am trying to decide how to split up my silkies. The two listed above are gray and the rooster has a touch of brown. Should these 2 be in the partridge silkies or separated by themselves?

I got some eggs from someone and I got some that were BBS and some that were White. But I got 3 really cute Partridge out of them also. How did that happen? Is it normal to get Partridge out either of these.

I have a case of persimmons that I got in a food cop-op. Can chickens eat them or is it bad for them? I hate to waste them.

We live in middle Georgia and my daughter would like to show chickens. None of the 4-H groups around us seem to have any chicken programs. How do get into showing where we are?

I hatched out 4 Seramas about 3 weeks ago. The first one died within the first week. Today another one died today. They both seemed fine and then we found them dead. They are in with a few other chicks. What could be the problem?

is the color on these silkies good? Would they be good to breed? Thanks!

I bought a silkie chick and as it has gotten older his feet and beak are green instead of black. I know that he is definitely not show quality, but is there something wrong with him? Thanks, Rellina

I was wondering if a crooked beak is a trait that will be passed on to offspring. I have a hen that has a slightly crooked beak, but is very pretty otherwise. If I hatch out some of her eggs will there be a danger of the chicks having it also?

When I first got our chickens I didn't know that much about the breeds. So when I bought I just bought the ones I thought were nice looking. I got these chickens from a lady who thinks they are d'uccles. I know a little more now and I'm not sure that they are d'uccles, maybe a mixed. Does anyone...
