    White cyst in day old chick?

    Hard to say because it’s so tiny. It feels squishy kind of and moves if I poke it. Honestly it looks like it’s infected somehow and has puss inside of it. Never had a chick born with an infection like that. Probably hatched 4 hours ago?

    White cyst in day old chick?

    Hello. Just had a batch hatch today. #4 came out with a small white bump on one side under its beak. Seems to be acting normally but I got the this one and the other three that hatched from different people... am concerned if it’s not healthy and could potentially pass on something to the...

    Multiple hatches... one incubator down. What to do?

    Hello all. So here’s the situation. I have two incubators I usually run simultaneously when I hatch, this time I was doing two batches of eggs about a week behind eachother. I came home the other day and one was reading 104! I put in another thermometer to check and had the same reading. I could...

    Is Irene... Ron?

    Cool! Thank you. I’m pretty sure I know which ones are hers as she doesn’t lay as frequently as the others (and I only had one other that laid small cream eggs for a bit). But that’s a good trick to be sure :)

    Hello!! I’ve had “Irene” for about 1.5 years now... I’ve always thought she was a she... until I saw her try to crow yesterday? I just introduced some new chicks to the flock, definitely have 2 Roos in there that I will need to re-home (I’m in town and unfortunately can’t keep them). Wondering...

    Not egg bound... clear fluid?

    This is what food I’ve been feeding them for awhile now... could that be an issue? Too much protein? The vet said that the fluid she had inside of her was clear though... could this still be water belly? The posts I’ve seen it’s a kind of yellowish fluid. Thank you for the information on...

    Not egg bound... clear fluid?

    thank you for the response! She’s eating and drinking just fine, her comb has started to droop More though, it’s still red though. She hasn’t laid eggs and both me and and the vet have checked her for egg bound eggs. How do you drain her with ascites? Is that something I’m able to do or do I...

    Chicken has eyes closed, has some kind of film over her eyes, and now keeps scratching her ear lobe

    She looks like she might be blind in one eye... does she have issues with her beak?

    Not egg bound... clear fluid?
