    What Breed Is This Bantam Hen? *pictures*

    We got this hen and her four chicks from a local farmer yesterday. I think she looks like a Dutch Brown, but I'd like your opinions on this. Also, one of her chicks looks right for a Dutch Brown, but the others are clearly mixes. Here are the pictures: If you need something clearer just...

    I don't want to bump this too much, but does anyone have even the slightest idea of what's wrong?

I don't see a blood ring, I was never able to see veins, and I can't see the chick's eye as well as I was able to before However, I was holding the egg I...

    Humidity Too High During Incubation?

    Do you think they'd be fine if I lowered it down to 50, or between 40 and 50%?

    Humidity Too High During Incubation?

    I have the humidity in the incubator between 50 and 60%. Some sources say that's good, and others say that's too high. This is my first time incubating eggs and I could really use the help. Currently the chicks are on day 11.

    This Hen Seems To Be Dying, Help? (Pictures Included)

    No, her crop is mostly empty. I'm not sure about doing a necropsy. There might not be enough time. We're going to be leaving for a short vacation tonight, so I'll have to ask him soon.

    This Hen Seems To Be Dying, Help? (Pictures Included)

    She has very thick feathers around her neck. Her posture does also make it look like her crop's full. She was on the same feed as the other chickens, who aren't having a problem . I think she's too far gone too, she's getting it tonight. I just want to know if her symptoms match any other sort...

    Scalped Pullet!!

    This happened to one of my chickens, except we think the dog did it. She survived, even though we didn't put anything on it. Since you've given her some medication already, I would just wait and see. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Hope she gets well soon.z

    This Hen Seems To Be Dying, Help? (Pictures Included)

    My red sex link has been acting funny since the 5th.She began to lay down a lot and stopped eating a while after. She was laying runny, light brown poo. She's a little younger than a year old. The other chickens have been avoiding her since we've gotten her. At first I thought she was egg bound...

    Maybe an infection caused it? The brooder looks kind of dirty.
