    Scissor beak help!

    That is a gorgeous picture! I will try yogurt and applesauce mixed in. Do you feed her separately? I can imagine everyone else would like to try that mix as well. Also, in the absence of a puppy pad at the moment, I started using a section of newspaper (the original puppy pad!). It’s been doing...

    Thank you for this! Picking up on your comment about breeding... I’ve read that the ISA browns have to been pure bred for the sex linking to be accurate. I would assume our ISA is a pure bred but also have no idea where the eggs for the classroom incubator came from and thus don’t know the...

    Scissor beak help!

    I zoomed in here, hope it’s clear enough. This one has a pretty severe scissor beak which she’s had since we brought her home. I make a mash for her twice a day and have been making sure that she is gaining weight, but she is definitely smaller. That’s probably a separate post... She is the...

    Sex of 9 week old chicks from kindergarten

    Hi all! I’m new to this awesome forum and new to backyard chickens. My kindergartener’s class hatched chicks and we adopted four to bring home. It’s a little more work than I expected and a lot more fun than I expected! We live in a city and can only keep hens. I’m wondering if we might have one...
