Recently, I’ve noticed that one of my babies has a deformed beak. It doesn’t look severe, but I was wondering if, since some get worse with age, theirs might too. I’ve never had a bird with a deformed beak before; they get along with the other chicks, but I’m worried that when we integrate...

Our big boy Red, a leige fighter rooster, was killed while defending his ladies from hawks. He fathered and raised nine children, all of whom reached adulthood. Bandit, his eldest son, will take over as leader of the flock. He's already doing his nighttime duty of standing guard, as seen in the...

I had a surprise that one of our duck eggs is fertile and that it is going to hatch on the 28th. Problem is that there is only 1 and none others. So I have been trying to get my duck broody so that she will take it when it hatches. I’ve never dealt with broody ducks or anything of that’s sorts...

What breed is this chick?

Our chicken, Cupid is about 6 months old. She has started acting really strange such as letting us pick her up without fussing or struggling and to add she lets us turn her upside down without fussing or struggling. Another thing that I find concerning is that when I was walking her back to her...

So one of our ducklings is feeling down. She’s usually runs away from me but today she won’t do that. I held her front up and she just drank water. Her sister won’t leave her side and will rest next to her. She won’t even honk at me. She is around 1 month. She’s been very tired all the time.

I don’t know exactly when it started piping but it has been in the same stage for around 24 hours. It is tweeting super loud and I feel really bad. There is a bit of blood around the pip. The others have started hatching but this one has not moved or even started cracking any more eggs!
