    Puffy eyes out of nowhere.

    Thank you so much for the update and doing these exhaustive tests! This puts my mind at ease(somewhat 😅) that its not the ones that I thought it could be. I have also put her back in the flock now that her symptoms all gone and none of them are showing any signs either.

    Puffy eyes out of nowhere.

    Thank you so much! I pretty much separated her the moment I saw this symptom on her and came here and read your post. I started using saline water along with that.

    Can someone please help me identify my chicken?

    Thanks, @sourland ! I am not very familiar with 'designer' breeds. Could you explain what you mean by that? These were the potential options mentioned on the site: "Barnevelder, Blue Andalusian, Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, Buff Brahma, Cochin, Columbian Wyandotte, Cuckoo Marans, Dark Brahma...

    Can someone please help me identify my chicken?

    Hi everyone, I have been following BYC for a while and we have finally got our own chicken! We bought "rare breed" collection from tractor supply online in February. It came in a batch of 10 and thankfully all survived. They are now 10 weeks old. My first question is regarding this particular...
