    Something off with my Buff girl

    UPDATE: we ended up culling my little Rosie. She wasn't eating & lost a lot of weight. Now, 3 weeks later my barred rock is unable to walk. It began late last week with her toe turning outward, followed by unbalanced walking and now she cant walk at all but is still eating & laying. I believe...

    Something off with my Buff girl

    I think so too. I've been looking more into it & her legs are looking identical to those with mareks. I don't live anywhere near UC Davis so that wouldn't be a possibility. Does this mean all my chickens are at risk? Should I cull her asap? I don't want to lose her but don't want to lose them...

    Something off with my Buff girl

    Baby Chick Pictures!!!!! POST!

    Picked up some sisters for my Buff girl yesterday- 1 black australorp & 1 plymouth barred rock that are about the exact same age as our Rosie. They all seemed a bit nervous last night when they met but are now doing fine cuddling in the coop keeping warm. Its funny to see how different they...

    Sad day in the coop

    I've been calling around locally with no success yet. My daughter went & sat with Rosie in the coop today & she sat right on her lap and cuddled up for a good while which she usually had no interest in doing so I know this is affecting her I did see an ad for some silkie bantams- would they be...
