Thank you so much, yes she is lovely . There was a poo near her nest and I saw her do one and they both looked the same to yesterday. Maybe her first season laying has tired her out a bit . Thank you 😊
No missing feathers and she seems a lot brighter today and vocal and has eaten and drank more. If I let her have chicks I’d probably only want 2 but we’d definitely have enough space and we are building a new coop which is higher off the floor so they have all that now aswell. I’m not too keen...
UPDATE:
she has perked up this morning and is being vocal when I stoke her just a content chirp like noise they do, I brought her out for a nice drink and she drank quite a bit she’s back inside now x🧡

Hi , I’m wondering if anyone can help me :) I have 7 month old pekin bantam hen who is so sweet . I have noticed yesterday and today that she had one eye closed a lot but not all the time . At first I thought she was having a little Power Nap in the sun on the allotment as her head was tilted...
Hi anyone ,
I recently bought some pekin bantam fertile eggs for my hen and she has been on them for 21 days today ! I candled one a few days ago and noticed flickering like a candle , some of them have nothing and some of them have something . There is no piping yet , should I be concerned. I...
