    Please help! Gurgling panting hen!

    So she's acting fine now! So weird. Her crop is a little pale - still need to check if it's squishy. The heat has broken by about 25 degrees so I'm wondering if that's it. Anyone else experience this before?

    Underweight and can't get her to grow

    HELP!!!...what do i do with this broody hen!!!??????

    Having the same issue with my buff orpington. She has been broody for the last few days. Is it a coincidence that she started doing this right after we clipped her wings? Also - do I need to bring her out of the nest to eat and drink or will she get enough for herself? Thanks in advance!
