    Wheezing/Hoarse Chicken

    This morning her crop is empty, but she’s still wheezing. She also is “pumping” her tail when she breathes and wheezes, is it possible this is her being egg bound? I don’t feel any hard lump on her rear end, and I’m not sure that would cause the wheezing… Here’s a link to a video I...

    Wheezing/Hoarse Chicken

    No nasal drainage, after a closer look tonight no blood or other discharge from the nose or eyes. Comb is bright red, she’s not puffing up. Her crop feels very firm at the moment, and when offered food and water she eagerly went after both. I got a video, it doesn’t show the “hoarseness” I...

    Wheezing/Hoarse Chicken

    Hi all, kinda strange question to run by anyone who has more experience. I noticed this morning that one of my 6 month old hens was a little wheezy. I thought I saw some dried blood under her nose, but couldn't get a clear picture of it unfortunately. There's also a lot of runny green poop...

    Bloody Poop in 16 Week Old Pullets. Normal, or not?

    Breed Question!

    That’s what I was hoping for! Not knowing the breed and being new makes it very nerve wracking to determine male vs female too! Thank you!

    Breed Question!

    They were purchased from a feed store who got their chicks from SunnySide Hatchery. They were brought in and placed in bins at the feed store organized by breed. No color was listed on the bin that I can remember. Sorry that’s not much info!

    Breed Question!

    Hi Everyone! Back again with another question. I have 3 chickens (7 weeks old) that were labeled as Ameracauna when I purchased them. I’m not sure what breed they actually are and have no past experience to guess with as a first time chicken owner. I’ll attach pictures of them as young, then...

    Australorp or Black Star? Either way, not an Americauna!😂

    Hi everyone! I got 7 chicks about 4 weeks ago. 3 of them were supposed to be Americaunas, but now I’m not so sure. They have oily black feathers on their backs, black legs, white skin, their combs are a mix of black and pale, and their chests/backs they have some red/brown feathers coming in...
