Is this a barred rock or cuckoo maran? Someone is trying to sell it as a maran but i want to make sure

I have a hen that has been raising chicks for 3 weeks now. I noticed yesterday that her face has swollen lesions and she has sneezed a few times. I separated her from her chicks and administered Tylan 50 as i saw a few bubbles in her eyes and assumed it was a respiratory disease. She has been in...

I hope she doesnt get worse, i dont have any poultry vets near by. I have a vet that will try, but has told me she knows nothing about chickens

Thank you! I just went and purchased oyster calcium pills and crushed them in her feed. I have been soaking her in warm epsom salt water as well as flushed her vent. I believe if she was egg bound, The egg has cracked inside of her. I uploaded a picture of her feces, it looks alot like my other...

I don’t know where the man got them from, he barely spoke English and he had about 75 of them “all pullets”. I doubt they are from a hatchery

Im not sure, by its size I would say 8 weeks

Do white earlobes mean they are mixed? And does it look like a pullet?

This chick was sold to me as a silverlaced Orpington pullet, I thought pullets had a comb, and is it really a pullet?
