I don't think Pumpkin was eating, I didn't see her eat when I was out there. I am not sure how her crop felt I didn't check. Pumpkin hasn't laid an egg for a while, not a lot of our Buff Orpingtons do now a days for some reason. They lay more in the spring and winter. Her poop was brown like...
I have a Buff Orpington hen named Pumpkin and she is approximately 2 years old. For the past few weeks Pumpkin has had a pale comb and her vent has been covered with poop from time to time. I washed the poo off a few days ago and her vent and the area around it seemed to be doing fine. Today I...

So, today our chickens are three days old, we got them on Thursday when they were one day old. This morning i saw scat on one of the smallest chickens bum. We tried to get it off, but it stuck. So we got the scat off by getting a old toothbrush and dipping it in water. Then we let the chicken...
