I just bought this sweet little chick. He was in the buff Brahma bin but he looks like a dark Brahma. The other ones I bought look like dark Brahmas too. They did have buff ones in there. Could someone let me know about this guy and the other ones?
I have this light Brahma that is about 16 weeks old. I am pretty sure it’s a cockerel but he’s so skittish. I have him as an inside chicken bc as he was growing up, I had respiratory run through my flock outside so I never integrated him. More he’s so old, I’m wondering when I can bc I have 4...
I put his on a quarter of a grape cut in half so it would be bite-size and the amount that I put was about smaller than a pea size. What was recommended from videos that I saw it was the same amount that I gave all my other chickens, and they all seem to be doing fine.
Last night I dewormed all my birds with safeguard paste for horses. This morning, I went into the coop and one of my roosters is now lethargic, gurgling, and gaping a bit.
I put vet RX on his beak for now but am wondering if he had gape worms. He’s only about 7 months old and never showed the...
He can eat well. I’ve been soaking his feet in epsom salt and applying neosporin on them. It’s almost impossible to wrap it since he has feathers feet and the toe pads are damaged too. He goes outside during the day but I bring him inside with me at night so his toes have a soft surface to rest on.
I just got this one year old light Brahma rooster from a breeder that had too many roosters. She gave him to me. He lived in a bachelor flock out in the back of her property. I don’t think they got much care. I have had him for a month and was under quarantine. He came with some respiratory...
I have an appointment tomorrow with my vet to see what’s wrong. The staff didn’t have any suggestions other than he was leaving early for the day and could leave a shot behind that I could come and get, but I don’t know how to give shots in chickens as that diagnosing without seeing the bird. I...
Last week I acquired 3 baby chicks 3 weeks old I was told, 2 -4 month I silkies and 1 roosters almost a year old from a breeder. I asked if there were any health issues I should know about. She mentioned that she had some issues with common respiratory bc of the weather.
One week later, my...
This is “Bellie”, the white one. My little Bellie girl. She is an Ideal 236. Of all my hens, she is the sweetest one. Every time I am in the coop to clean she hops up on the roosting bar where I am so she can get picked up for lovin’s. She lets me hold her and give her kisses all the time and...
