    How can I save it?

    This silkie chick hatched yesterday. It did have a bit of a rough hatch and was a little bloody. How can I help it? It’s not splayed leg but it’s like it can’t get its legs underneath it to stand. It just flails around. Here’s a video (sorry I couldn’t figure out how to embed this!)...

    Cochin or Brahma?

    I’m pretty sure this is a blue Brahma rooster, but can anyone confirm? It was a free chick I got in an order. He’s around 5 months old. Thank you!

    Third wattle?

    Oh thank you so much! Is there any point to them?

    Third wattle?

    I have a naked neck Turken with what looks like a third wattle. Is this normal or common? It almost looks like what turkeys have in between his two wattles.

    What color is this silkie?

    Thank you! I’m super new to understanding what makes up a good breeder quality silkie. I did feel like her tail was relatively low. She’s only 8 weeks old (ish) so still a baby. Do you typically wait to see how they look as they get older or do you know when they are young if they will be...

    What color is this silkie?

    So I am beyond obsessed with this silkie that I hatched. What color would she be considered? She’s still young but does she look like a good breeding prospect? She was born with quite the vaulted skull and I did read that could mean a nice floofy head.

    Sick Poult leaking clear fluid from mouth

    Here’s her poop if this helps at all. Could this be heat related?

    Sick Poult leaking clear fluid from mouth

    It’s been insanely hot here like everywhere else on the east coast. I have multiple fans outside for everyone including a mister fan and they are in shade all day. Everyone has been doing okay. Last night I put everyone away and put a fan in the coop to help with air flow. This morning I found...

    3/4 dead chick. Please help.

    I’ve definitely considered that. It peeps and is taking the syringe. It does open its eyes when I pick it up now from time to time. I’ll give it a shot with getting some vitamins and electrolytes in it and if it doesn’t work we will let it go.

    3/4 dead chick. Please help.

    I have a chick that is approximately 7-8 weeks old now. I had a bout of coccidia run through that I’ve been struggling to get rid of because it will not stop raining here. I’ve had the flock on Corrid and everyone is doing much better except this little one. It is still alive. It cannot stand...

    What is my silkie?

    I struggle with silkies and I know it can take awhile, but this one is giving rooster vibes. What do you think? About 12-15 weeks old.

    Bourbon Red Poults

    I thought I had read this isn’t reliable because all poults do this. @R2elk is that right?

    Bourbon Red Poults

    I am super new to turkeys and am curious when you can start to tell what is a hen vs a tom. What signs do you look for? My poults are approximately 8 weeks old now. Here are some pictures of them 🙂

    Sick Poult

    Thank you! Does this stance still look like coccidiosis? I just haven’t seen one do that before.
