Yep I'm pretty positive her leg is sprained, found a mark on it that looks like a bruise. Brought her in to give it a soak in Epson salt and am going to spoil her for a little bit inside til she seems a bit better. The others were pecking at her and not allowing her to eat and drink but she is...

I'm unsure how you got confused but she is not inside yet. Today my boyfriend inspected her stomach a little better by feeling around and didn't feel anything. She was actually with the other girls standing around. Only difference I can see today is that when he inspected her leg she tried to...

I have five chickens and am only really attached to one, the rest I look at as an investment. They're all cared for the same but one has stolen a place in my heart. She's just so darn friendly and has always allowed me to pick her up and "love" on her like a pet. The rest lost interest in being...

Hi, :) I am new and my name is Anna. Currently have 6 hens, and recently obtained a new coop. I am here trying to decide the different type of poultry I can keep with my new coop, I am willing to customize and have space for larger birds. I have been doing some research on Turkeys, but am still...
