I don't have eggs or peachicks, but I have a male and female indian blue that I really need to find a new home for and they are free. The hen has started laying eggs already, she had a nest earlier this season but she was found by a predator in the night that chased her off her nest and ate her...

I live in Woodinville, WA and can't seem to find organic turkey food anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get it along with organic chicken food as well?
My rooster is sick and hasn't been dust bathing and i noticed he has lice. I wanted to use DE but I don't think it would be very effective because I would have to try and wiggle him around like he were bathing. So I was wondering if there was a nontoxic spray or a liquid that I could wash him...
I have a rooster and in the last few days we have noticed that his comb has curled over, he seems like he is dizzy because he stumbles around likes its hard for him to walk, and he's really tired. He just kind of sits around and sleeps. I have seen him drink water today and he eats food. Does...

The chickens are to young to even eat food. The one I got from my pet chickens lived for a couple of days and was eating and drinking but was just tired all the time till it died. The one I hatched today hatched this morning and was put into a brooder with pine shavings and is heated by a heat...
So this has happened twice to me so far and I am wondering if anyone knows what the problems is. The first time it happened I had bought 6 chicks from my pet chicken and my silver laced wyandotte seemed like he had a really hard time staying awake. She was always dozing off. After two days she...

I have two eggs in the bator. One of them was supposed to hatch yesterday and it hasn't pipped yet. The other egg is supposed to hatch tomorrow and it is pipping right now. I can hear peeping but I can't tell which egg its coming from. I am assuming the peeping is coming from the egg that's...
