    Sorry, I read your post so fast that I didn't realize you had posted the age of your chicks. I saw that you had gotten guineas and was wondering if you would be selling some in the future.

It's actual name is rose comb brown leghorn, for some reason none of them seem to be growing like you would think. Our Delawares are...

    Baby Chick is sick....Please Help!!!

    We feed her start n grow 24% and we put vitamins with electrolytes in the water. I checked the date on the bag of food and it is fine.

    Baby Chick is sick....Please Help!!!

    On 6/28 I posted that I had found one of my brown leghorns at the time was 3-4 weeks old, lying on the hutch floor trying to get up, but couldn't. Her left leg was straight out and her right leg was under her. She didn't have any strength in her right leg and she couldn't bend her left. Also...

    Thank you for sharing your experience, its nice to know that their is someone else that has info. And that you aren't the only one dealing with what is going on with the chicks. What kind of treats do you give your chicks?

    Help!!! baby chicks crop is hard as a rock

    I removed the food and gave a few hours and the crop went down flat. I put the food back in, she ate and now her crop is a lump and is hard as a rock again. Do you know why that has happened? If I feed her yogurt will that help? What if it is impacted? Is there anything I can do for that?
