I've got 6 Chickens, 2 red shavers, 1 orpington and 3 baby chicks that hatched last saturday (unsexed) fairly new to looking after chooks. We moved from auckland down here last october.
has anyone come across this at all, We have a red shaver who used to have a golden beak and now its gone dark brown? any advise would be helpful.... should mention she has also stopped laying no eggs for about the last 3 or so weeks..
I have a chicken who comes inside frequently, We live in a converted barn and the ranch slider is left open most of the day and she will just come inside and see whats happening lol
