    Crossed beaks and missing eyes

    An Update: My chicks are about 7 months old now and 2 of 3 are laying eggs regularly! My one eyed cross beak (whom I've named Soup) still has not laid and I'm not sure she ever will, but she's thriving with the rest! Maybe a month after my last post I started making oatmeal for Soup and she was...

    Unknown disease in waterfowl, two dead, another one sick

    Totally agree with you. Do you have a source on that sanctuary? I didn't find anything on Google and I'm just curious about what happened.

    Chicken and Fires. What to do?

    I like the set up; It's a good thing you only have 3 😂 I hope y'all stay safe and this all clears soon!

    Crossed beaks and missing eyes

    Good day everyone, I'm just posting a little update: all 3 chicks are growing and doing well! The crossbeak with one eye is definitely smaller than the other two, but he's learned to eat mush/baby bird mix on his own (I've been giving him Katee and Mazuri baby bird mix in a small bowl in the...

    "Zombie" Chickens (Coming back from the dead?!)

    ah yes, now I have had this happen before! I had a rooster tangled in a net and was hanging upside down when I found him (no idea how long he was like that) and I definitely thought he was dead. But as I was untangling his body he blinked; I brought him inside and after about 15 minutes he...

    "Zombie" Chickens (Coming back from the dead?!)

    I thought there may have been a phenomena where chickens go into somekind of "coma-like" state that resembled death that I was unaware of so I wanted to ask here - I guess I was too quick to assume it was true 😅

    "Zombie" Chickens (Coming back from the dead?!)

    Hi y'all, I'm not sure if this is the place for this post, but I was just in the BYC facebook page, and saw someone posted about their hen "coming back from the dead". :eek: Here's a link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/BackyardChickensBYC/permalink/10162392132344734/ The comments were loaded...

    Sneezing/Coughing a lot but mostly breathing normal...

    I'm having a similar experience: We recently had a heatwave where I live and it hit 115+/- a few degrees for 4 days in a row. It's been about 2 weeks since and I've had a few chickens develop a "yelling", sometimes wet sounding, cough that hasn't improved since. They don't have any other...

    Crossed beaks and missing eyes

    Thanks, I'll read up on the cross beaks! I'm not sure what breeds they are but hopefully they all reach adulthood and I'll be able to guess. I'll certainly post updates & maybe y'all can help identify them :)

    ** One eyed Cross Beak Chick !

    I just picked up a chick that looks like him! Is he still alive? How's he doing?

    Crossed beaks and missing eyes

    Hi y'all! Yesterday I was at the local feedstore and noticed these 3 were separated from the rest of the chicks. The black one is always looking down (maybe a neck deformity?), one orange chick has a slightly misaligned beak and a malformed left eye, the other orange one has a very crossed beak...
