    Asthma? Bronchitis?

    I guess you could call the sound crackling. I haven’t noticed any drainage or eye issues at all.

    Asthma? Bronchitis?

    I've noticed for a couple months that my 3 yr old Brahma rooster has a rattling, wheezy sound coming from his chest. It's like he has to cough. He looks healthy otherwise. My broody hen laid on a large clutch of eggs that he'd fertilized this past month and only one of them hatched. Today I...

    Egg laying in winter

    I had this question as well. Last year was our first year with chickens and I and our mixed flock laid all year long. This year I have young ones that weren’t quite ready to lay, but very close when winter hit and then I had some hens molting in November but now even my consistent layers, the...

    My EEs stopped laying

    My Easter Eggers have also stopped laying the last couple weeks too. They are 1.5 yrs old. I was wondering why also. And I’m curious when you said “ Self isolating, lethargic, staying excessively in the box, hunched or penguin stance, tail pumping, not coming for treats, etc.. immediate...

    Bantam foster mom

    My Silkie went broody and I let her sit on some fertilized eggs from my Isa Brown and my Easter Eggers. She’s the only bantam in my flock. We’ve got one chick so far. Day 22 ( I think) I’m worried because of the Silkie’s size she won’t be able to keep the big chickens out of the nesting...

    The only picture I have is from 6 months ago but you can show her prospective suitors and see if any of them would swipe right. 😃

    Black Silkie near Asheville

    I have a sweet black Silkie hen who just started laying within the last month. There are no other small hens in our flock, we lost our other Silkie to a predator. She’s a bit lonely and I also don’t have a Silkie rooster. She would love to hatch her little eggs and keeps attempting to get broody...
