    Pretty sure they're mixed, but can you tell which breeds?

    They were definitely both boys, the white speckled one turned out to be a very pretty Ameracauna. Thanks so much for your help :)

    Can a broody Silkie be left with both her brand new hatchling and 8 to 9 week old chicks in the same coop?

    This is very encouraging news, thanks so much :)

    Can a broody Silkie be left with both her brand new hatchling and 8 to 9 week old chicks in the same coop?

    Can a broody Silkie be left with both her brand new hatchling and 8 to 9 week old chicks in the same coop?

    My broody Silkie took on two Polish Buff chicks (now 8 to 9 weeks old), but now has a hatchling of her own. I have separated them for now, but wanted to check whether the older chicks would "understand" to leave the new chick alone, because their adoptive mom is tending to it, or would try to...

    Is this an infection? plus crooked neck

    Thank you for your reply! I should have noted that she was actively eating fresh watermelon when I took this picture, so her beak (and whole face) looked very wet. I'm happy to make saline solution and clean her whole head, I also have Terramycin available. Just a light coat wherever it's red...

    Is this an infection? plus crooked neck

    This is Tweety, she's a 3 month old pullet that's half Naked Neck and half Asian Black. She has these red areas on her face, somewhat symmetrical, but worse on the left side than the right. I don't know if the crooked neck is related or if my other pullet stepped on her neck while trying to get...
