    Wide stance, puffed up hen

    Thanks for that. I'll probably have to get rid of one of my roosters too. They are being too rough with the hens. So if I do then putting two hens in should be fine.

    Ok. Well I took care of that hen today. Once she was dispatched I figured I may as well get some practice in plucking. I've never done it before and although I had no intention of eating this bird I figured it would be good to try it. Popped it in some hot water and job was done in a few...

    Swollen rear end on a 6 year old hen

    This sounds exactly what one of my girls is like. I have no idea how old any of them are I just inherited them with our new home. She seems fine. Just waddles around behind everyone else. She has a very broad stance.

    Hi all. I have 9hens and 2 Roosters. One of my girls has been acting a bit strange. I have only inherited these birds a few weeks ago. And I'm very new to all this.
