Hello I am in need of help as soon as I can get it!
My favorite Rooster Zelda, (<--it's a long story) has a history of getting respiratory diseases in the past but recently despite giving him respiratory meds often his mouth still hangs open. I have checked the inside of his mouth and there are...
Woke up this morning to go hang out with my couple of hens and my girl Lola here struts out of the coop looking like this??? is she ok? what happened?? and what should I do to help her?
Hi friends!
I just got rid of a good chunk of my hens because I’m going off to college but I have to many roosters for the hens I have left! And I don’t want them fighting. If anyone could come and take a rooster I have (2) or both! I’d would be eternally grateful they are healthy and docile...
Man have I been busy! And so have my chickens in the time I have been here and left we have had some new arrivals and some unfortunate deaths but nothing is without meaning. I’m currently working on building a new coop for my girls and boys that is a little smaller because soon here I am going...
Little backstory: I recently rescued a mama hen and her 6 babies from a neglect case.
The mom is very aggressive and and protective of her little ones and I have been working to ease her trust towards me so I can handle her chicks. I have been keeping an eye on this one specifically I haven’t...

In these comments, I feel like a little bit of a black sheep because I have never hatched my own chicks all of mine are ordered online or bought from my local farm store. And I try REALLY hard to find all the roosters I end up with homes even if it means they get eaten but that's not my...
Hey Guys!
I'm currently trying to downsize and I have had terrible luck with getting roosters this year if anyone is willing to take 3 roosters together OR separately I am in the southern Vermont area but I am willing to drive if you are slightly farther away. so please let me introduce you to...
Oh wow there’s even more to learn it seems! Well luckily her poop actually looks fairly normal? I don’t have any examples sadly but it’s just a muddy brown sometimes solid sometimes muddy liquidy no real pattern I’ve seen no blood or anything intense. So I don’t think it’s that but as for...
I am so sorry for your loss! Unfortunately I think my little girl is going to go down the same way it’s always a mystery why something’s work and other don’t. I think what I’m going to do is just let her be with her chick family until she departs she’s a lot happier with them and I don’t want...
