    Unknown Injury to head

    He survived the night!! Eye is still swelled (looks like a hematoma) but he does try to open it. Not sure if he's seeing anything out of it though. His beak looks a lot better, it seems straighter and he's not oozing from his nostril. I heard him eating a bite or two, saw him eat a piece of...

    Thank you for your advice. I will continue to treat and hopefully he will recover. I will get them separated, I thought I had more time.

    Unknown Injury to head

    I have a 4 month rooster who stays in our Big Bird run with a 1 1/2 rooster, 2 other 4 month roosters and about 9 hens and pullets. They've all been together from hatch.

    Hatchery choice?

    I didnt think about that. The cuckoo marans I ordered dont have feathered feet.

    Hatchery choice?

    We were wondering about those "crested birds". So they might be olive eggers...cool. So that means, I lost 2 faverolle, 1 leghorn and apparently 2 dark layers. What yellow chick would be a dark egg layer?

    Hatchery choice?

    I bought 15 chickens through a hatchery online. I lost five of them but I don't know which ones I still have. I was supposed to get three Hatchery Choice dark brown egg layers, three salmon faverolles, Three Olive eggers, three white leghorns, and three cuckoo marans. I know I still have three...

    Still thinking Orpington Roo?

    These babies have had time to grow. Not sure how old but I'm thinking I have a cockerel and pullet. I think its orpington but I wanted fluffy butt orpingtons.

    Are they orpingtons?

    So these birds have had time to grow...pretty sure its a rooster. Not the orpingtons I wanted. I wanted the fluffy butts.

    Ideas for Keeping rain out

    Would this type of vent in the cut out triangle section of the gable be sufficient on both sides of coop?
