hi so I just started tube feeding my 2 year old hen because she is underweight and not interested in food along with being lethargic with a pale comb. I just wanted to know if I could accidentally injure her if I inserted the feeding tube in too far? I’m using a piece of aquarium tubing and...

I've been reading a lot about how I can donate sweaters to ex battery hens who have no feathers, I don't have the money or else I would donate it. I read about the Little Hen Rescue but I'm pretty sure they shut down because they kept getting burglarized. Does anyone know of somewhere I can...

I have a gold brabanter cockerel and I'm wondering what the offspring would look like. The pullets I have are: 1 buff Orpington 2 buff Cochins 1 partridge rock 1 EE 1 Dominique Does anyone have any mixes like this or know where I could find any pictures? I just want to know what they could...

So, I have 6 pullets, 1 cockerel and 2 heritage turkeys of unknown gender who are all about 5 months old(give or take a week). I put their nesting boxes in the coop with a fake ceramic egg in each when they were 4 months old. When they first saw the egg they were all pecking at it and kicking...

Hi, I have an EE who is about 5-5 and a half months old and today she's acting kinda weird. She was the last out of the coop this morning and when I opened the coop looking for eggs( I'm waiting for the first one!) she went in and sat in the corner of the coop. She's walking around really...

I live in the outskirts of my town and from all around me I can hear atleast 2-3 neighbors who own roosters that crow all day long, and dogs who bark all day long... The sound of either has never bothered me. Is anyone else not bothered by it or is it just me, in fact I like to know that I live...

I just painted my chicken coop. It's about a foot and a half raised off the ground and the turkeys and chickens are pecking the wet paint off of it. I noticed one chicken had the green paint on her beak and some inside. Will they be ok? No lead in the paint I bought it about a year ago and am...

I swear every thing different in my chickens concerns me but I haven't seen poop like this. It's been 95 all day here in California and my 10 week old chick just pooped and this is what it looks like... I fed them watermelon, green and red bell peppers, and some broccoli. Does this look normal...

I just found this in the bag of scratch. No idea what it is??

I have two 10 week old Black Spanish turkeys. I have no idea what gender, I tried to feel for a beard stub but believe I just felt new feathers because they didn't look like a beard. Turkey A Turkey B

Should I start on corid or not worry about it? It might just be instestinal shedding but I'm paranoid about my chickens health so anything that is different scares me. I have 7 that are 10 weeks old today and I'm paranoid about cocci and any other disease. It's been in the 80s and going into...

I bought my chicken when she was about a week old from the local feed store along with the rest of my chicks, she was labeled as an Ameraucana but she has no muff or beard and she has greenish legs so I assume she is an EE? This is my second year raising chickens and I'm not super knowledgable...

I have seven 2 1/2 month old chicks that I've raised since they were a few days old and they all seem extremely healthy and energetic with a good appetite. I've noticed recently that some of them are having "softer" poop and I'm not sure if I'm just seeing them poop out their cecal poop or if...
