    yellow foamy poop? what's up?

    This morning she came out to eat some sunflower seeds. Looked like she was straining, or bearing down several times. She would sit and pick through the mulch rather than stand. I thought it might be egg binding. I put her in a bath of warm water, checked her vent but i could feel no egg. I...

    yellow foamy poop? what's up?

    I don't have a chicken vet. She layed a soft shell egg several days ago and hasn't come out of the coop then I've never treated them. I only have 2 girls that free range around my house

    yellow foamy poop? what's up?

    I have a Brahma that hasn't left the coop for 3 days. I just noticed her poop is yellow and foamy. It looks like the lighter stuff is where it has dried. Any idea what is wrong with her?

    is the egg still fertilized?

    I haven't tried to move her. Should I? I opened up the top to the next box and she just stared at me.

    is the egg still fertilized?

    It would have been layed today. I took the egg she layed yesterday, she didn't get broody until yesterday afternoon. I'm new to this but she wouldn't get out of the nesting box and slept their last night so I figured that is what is going on. I came home from work today and she is still in...

    What got my little white sultan rooster?

    He was around 5-6 lbs, he was my smallest bird. We have coyotes out here wondered if that got him?

    What got my little white sultan rooster?

    I let my 2 hens and 1 rooster free-range all day. I have seen hawks/big birds flying above. Ususally the girls stay close to the house, or hid under things. Sometimes my little rooster (white sultan) runs around out in the open almost teasing the hawks. I just came home to a trail of...

    Is something wrong?

    I grabbed her an ran and put her in a warm tub of water and got the poop off of her bottom. Her vent looks ok, from what I can tell. It's not red, it's just pink and the skin around it is pink. It just looks like a big softball hanging from her as her butt (under her vent). It could just be...

    Is something wrong?

    This is the back end of my brahma lucky. She's a year old and seems fine. She has had poop stuck to her butt for about a month, which weighs down her back end. She's been in the rain all day so her wet feathers are showing more of her skin. She's a big bird so it's hard to tell if her butt...

    What time of day do chickens lay eggs?

    My creamlegbar just played her first eggs in the past few days. I checked yesterday late afternoon (I have been getting one every other day) and there was no egg. I just checked at 10am this morning and there is an egg that was cracked and slightly frozen (it was in the 40's yesterday and 17F...

    I got my first egg today!!! Yeewhoo!! I was a little shocked because it came from the younger chicken??? Top left is Miss Kitty, she is 7 months old, and the blue egg has to be from her right?
