    Saipan chick genders?

    No, I just bought them from the local hatchery. The pictures they provided of the adults show the females as being tan and the males being red and black, does that help? Their website's having issues now, so the only picture I could get was this one

    Saipan chick genders?

    First time raising Saipan jungle fowl, and I was told that the girls grow their fathers faster than roos so I think what I have are two girls but one has bolder coloring than the other. Top is Crystal and I'm pretty sure she's a girl but Ruby has a lot of red in her feathers. Neither have...

    Pullet not moving much, fluffed up

    She's about two/three months old. I separated her from the rest, and gave her a buddy but she isn't perking up. She'll just slowly wander around and close her eyes. Please help! The ready of her group acted kinda like this when I put them outside for the first time, and they all got better. But...

    Turken Chick Can't Open Wings

    I have done sad news this morning, Sapphire has passed away. I don't know the cause, it was either a broken neck or bullying. I found her this morning lethargic and barely breathing. After about a half an hour of giving her water in a syringe and praying, she passed and I buried her next to her...

    Hen Disappearing for Most of the Day

    My other worry is that if the demon magpies got to ask of her eggs then her new batch of eggs will no longer be fertilized. She vanished again today, so she's definitely not given up, but my roster died a month before she started doing this and I don't know how long it'll be until she's just...

    Hen Disappearing for Most of the Day

    Well, the magpies in my area were going nuts the other day and I don't know why until today when I found one of her eggs in my backyard. It was cracked, covered in yolk, and freezing cold but I decided to candle it anyway and no light got through the egg so there was something inside any it was...

    Hen Disappearing for Most of the Day

    I have a bantam americauna hen that's been disappearing for more of the day for the past two weeks or so. She'll show up in the morning for a half hour to an hour and then won't be seen for the rest of the day. She'll gorge herself on food and water while she's out and about, and I try to make...

    Turken Chick Can't Open Wings

    Sorry it's been a while. She didn't respond to any prodding that suggested pain, untill I got to her wings. She's still fluffed up a bit but more attentive, and her vent had healed completely. With her wings I don't know what to think, and I'm tempted to slit the skin that's keeping it from...

    Turken Chick Can't Open Wings

    It's brownish orange and gooey. Also I found some scabs and blood around get vent that collects poo which makes it even worse so I'm cleaning it a few times a day.

    Turken Chick Can't Open Wings

    Sapphire is now five weeks old and starting to worry me. She isn't as active as the others, slow moving, fluffed up, but still eating and drinking fine, and I sometimes catch her acting normal, but not often. Her wings have basically stabilized at being about to open mostly, but her primary...

    Bantam Wyandotte Gender?

    I'll be sure to get a few pics here in a few weeks, thank you all so much! He/she/it was the only Wyandotte that I bought.... But here's a pic with Tanzanite, my old English game of the same age (99.99% sure it's a girl) and a pic of his back feathers, Opal seems to be feathering in at about the...

    Ringneck Dove Behavioral Problems

    I am 100% aware of what I did; I gave a beloved pet the chance to live instead of being killed. I had no other options besides those two. I am also aware of my introducing a foreign animal to a new environment, but I am not a child and I did not abandon him, I have given him the best life I...
