Sorry I didn't get a picture. It was too late. I was so nauseated I had my husband throw it out. It was a meaty looking hunk in the egg white. The yolk was normal and undisturbed. This was likely a meat spot? I've had the little bloody meat stops before but never a solid mass! I'm just...

What exactly is lash material? Is it pus?

I recently adopted a new hen. Today when I cracked open one of her eggs, there was what looked like a chunk of meat or sausage in the egg white. I didn't take a picture because I was horrified and almost threw up. I've read about lash eggs and I don't know if this was that or not... it didn't...

I found them a home (hopefully). I plan to transport them this weekend! Thanks!

Oh the poor baby! I'm so glad she has a good home with you. So many others would have just put her down. People don't understand when I say my girls are pets. They just see eggs and food. I hate the jokes people make about roasting them. How would they like jokes about eating their dogs? She is...

I lost my first chicken to a predator. I would like to post in her honor. Sue was a sweet 2.5 year old RIR. She was very mouthy and sassy, yelling at anyone who disturbed her while laying her eggs. She was definitely a protector. She always sounded the alarm when she saw someone she didn't...

Hello. I am posting for a friend. He has 9 leghorns hens that need a good home. 4 might have a new home already. If interested and will give a good home, please message me! Thanks so much!

Thank you all!

I found out what happened. When raking out their run, it appears there was old rusty metal fencing under the dirt that was unearthed. A big rusted metal bar was sticking up. She must have caught her belly on it. My husband pulled it all out of the ground so it's safe now. I feel so awful. My...

She was in her enclosed pen. I didn't see anything sharp that could have hurt her. The poor girl. I feel awful and wish I could have helped her.

I'm so sorry. I just had the same thing happen. I was at a loss for words. It was heartbreaking. It was my first loss.

Today I lost my first chicken. She was sitting all balled up. When I picked her up, her intestines were hanging out. I cannot figure out what happened to her. They were not coming out of her vent. They appeared to be coming out of a cut on her belly. Nothing was chewed on and she has no other...

My husband's grandmother passed. She had two parakeets. One is a green colored male, and one is a blue colored female. I do not know their ages. We are currently taking care of them, but cannot keep them. If anyone in the upstate NY area is interested, please let me know! We live close to the...

Thank you all for the birthday wishes! <3

Thank you. I will continue my research before making a decision.

If we were to get geese, it would be 2 females. Everything I read online says they are great protectors of chickens, and can even live with them in the same coop.

My husband and I are debating getting a couple of geese. We heard they are good at protecting chickens. We do not know much about them though. What are your thoughts? Is this a good idea?

Hi everyone. I have a 3.5 year old Barred Rock and 7 1 year old RIRs. All of them have stopped laying. The RIRs were in the middle of a molt, so I assumed that would normal while they grew new feather. Plus I live in upstate NY so it has been cold. However, it was my understanding that...

Is it safe to treat it if I'm not positive she has it?
