Cute silky :D

Still up to my neck in stuff (nope, make that fluff) We have 22 birds now in Texas, lost a Buff Orp to heat already :( Advice to anybody who wants it: if you live somewhere where it gets up to 85-100 Fahrenheit, then don't get buffs unless you are very well prepared to find all of them in rigor...

Okay well.. Thanks for telling me, wanted to know before I started deworming :) We stuck her and the other broody in a cage so they can puff down, hope it works Thanks again

That's the preen gland? The worm-looking thing near her tail?

Okay got the photos :) ^^^ her general state of existence

She still hates humanity. Every time we open the box: "hmMMM! Erp brp brp brp" She seems the same basically every day, not very active I have to push her out of the coop to get her to go eat something (I never witness her eating on her own, I've heard that they rarely get off the nest).

I have zero idea what a egg membrane looks like. (we've only kept chickens for a year or so.)

No use in beating about the bush: When I looked for eggs, I saw one (out of two) broody Orps and started to push her out of the box (because chickens are waiting in line, it's ridiculous) when I noticed something about a quarter inch long sticking out near the tail feathers. She's lost quite a...

HEEEEEEEELOOOO!!!! Big chicken enthusiast here who also likes listening to Hamilton non-stop on Spotify. You can find me on bing hehe- Yep insane reputation for coding and drawing and singing Hamilton music and taking care of chickens- and that's enough for here.

Hah! Hygiene and chickens? What ridiculous nonsense! Hygiene and chickens are super unnecessary essential to any Backyard Chicken keeper. We have a few rules of thumb: Keep shoes clean if you go into the run- rub 'em on the rug outside the door or leave 'em outside. If you have anything to do...

awesome! the bot responds in simplified chinese

(testing Chinese and what an error returns)

Interesting. 我的一只鸟走路有点歪，一只脚的脚趾看起来和另一只脚不一样。我该怎么办?

Hey @TudyBOT : About how common is an angel wing and is it more or less common than a wry neck?

cute :) never seen this kind of Brahma before

We suspect we just got our first egg from one of our 5 chicks! But we're getting 9 real eggs from hens, so nothing to sneeze at. 19 chickens 14 hens 5 chicks 6 Buff Orpingtons (hens) 3 Buff Orpingtons (chicks) 5 Barred Plymouth Rocks (1 deceased) 2 Silver-laced Wyandottes (1 deceased) 2 New...

We use a five-gallon Home Depot bucket with nipples and something like these screw top lids. We used two of these in a frame we built out of 2x4s. I've heard that the rule of thumb is "don't give your chickens water you wouldn't drink", although that might be for bees. (I'm a beekeeper too.)...
