    Roo Can't Walk :(

    You could be correct. This chicken was never vaccinated since he was hatched in a local school classroom. I went out and photographed his blackening comb. Also, I photographed his eye since Marek's seems to grey out the eye.... doesn't seem to be grey yet.

    Roo Can't Walk :(

    I am uploading two images of my roo and two of another hen. I'm not sure if the two issues are related, that is why I am uploading both. Here is a link to a video of the roo two days ago. 1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.)...

    2 chicks one egg??? Is it possible?

    We had twins hatch out of one egg recently. They both lived, but were VERY deformed. Each of them had misshapen legs and could barely walk. There was not enough room in the egg for both of them to fully develop. :(

    Help- Toe ready to fall off

    Well, we ended up removing the dead toe part. The chicken didn't even notice. We cleaned it really well, bandaged it up, and put some electrolytes and antibiotic in the water. She seems to like having the run of the garage. There is also another chicken in there to keep her company. I will...

    Undecided on a good coop design

    Thank you! I will try to remember to post some pictures of the coop we ended up building. It's still not what I want, but we needed something before the cold set in. There is a chance I will be able to build another one this summer because our neighbor fell a tree on our shed and we now need...

    Help- Toe ready to fall off

    I have a sick chicken. I noticed it about 5 days ago. At first, the chicken seemed fine, except that part of their middle toe was swollen. After looking online, I figured it was bumble foot. I brought the chicken inside, soaked the foot, cleaned it, and wrapped it up before putting it back...

    Too bad that the 'shed' was damaged. I agree that a shed version will probably make the best coop. Thanks Jakoda and Saffi0418. The pictures really bring this together.

    Undecided on a good coop design

    I live in southeastern Wisconsin and own a total of 10 chickens (2 columbian wyandottes, 2 silverlaced wyandottes, 2 australorps, 2 partridge pylmouth rocks, and 2 unknown roosters). I previously purchased a coop offline, but it does not hold as many chickens as it claims, it doesn’t have...

    Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

    Hi everyone, I am currently in the process of moving to Vernon, WI, in the Waukesha area. I'm looking to get some chickens. I want 6-8 dual-purpose chickens that will withstand a Wisconsin winter. I would also like some friendly chickens that will stay around the yard when let out. I've been...
