    What Breed Could This Be?

    Gotcha. This was the best I could get, with COVID going on no one but the employees are allowed to handle the birds in store. I might go back and get a few because my curiosity is getting the best of me!

    What Breed Could This Be?

    Hi all, I stopped by my local tractor supply today and they had these chicks, I’ve never seen a chick with coloring like this and their labels aren’t always correct. They told me they were cuckoo marans but they had another bin with cuckoos and they look nothing alike. They’re also super small...

    Mites??? Help!

    Hi all! I just noticed these on a few of my hens (including my one hen who’s been a permanent house resident for months :sick) and I have no idea where they came from, or what they are. They’re SUPER tiny and all over the feathers, unlike most mites which are usually close to the skin. What do...

    Possible Seizures?

    I haven’t noticed her turn purple, she’s stayed a healthy red color like the rest of the chickens. Not really, when she’s not having an episode her head is in a normal position. It’s only when she’s in one that her head moves around in a circle, I’ll try to video it if she has another one.

    Possible Seizures?

    Thank you guys, I’ll give the vitamins a try. She’s a Cuckoo Maran, around a year old.

    Possible Seizures?

    Hi all, I have a hen who has recently started having some odd “episodes” and I can’t find anything online that gives me an explanation. On Wednesday she didn’t come out of the run with the rest of the chickens so I picked her up to look her over and she started what I thought was the process of...

    Help Finding Out Mystery Breed?

    I don’t think he’s a Delaware, I have a few of them and they only have a bit of speckling on the neck and black tips on their tail feathers. aside from that they’re all white.

    Help Finding Out Mystery Breed?

    Hi all! I have a 10 week old chick that has me stumped on what breed she is. I got her from Tractor Supply and she was marked as an Easter Egger pullet but nothing about this bird screams Easter Egger to me, and I’m starting to question if she’s really a pullet. She’s got a few “fluffy”...

    Tumors on 13 Week Old Pullet?

    Bringing this thread back for an update. The hen with the tumors passed away a few weeks ago, looked like she had just gone to asleep so I assume it was peaceful and that whatever was going on was just too much for her. The white chicken in the sling is still hanging around (unintentional pun)...

    Tumors on 13 Week Old Pullet?

    Thank you for the link, I will definitely check that out. It makes me feel better knowing it’s not just me having odd issues this year, but I also feel bad for everyone else :( Hopefully the new year brings more luck and well being for all of us and our flocks.

    Tumors on 13 Week Old Pullet?

    I understand a bad hatch, but I was receiving birds all throughout the year, not just all at one time. I received the first on April 19th, the second on July 19th, and the third on September 20th. All of them incorporated different breeds and weren’t vaccinated because we were told that if you...

    Tumors on 13 Week Old Pullet?

    I could do that, but I’m not sure if I could do that. As long as there’s a possibility that she could have a chance, I want to try to give her that chance. She’s still responsive when you talk to her and doesn’t sit around like she’s sickly and she’s eating and drinking on her own. We do...
