    Help! Bloody poo?

    Yeah she is acting normal, eating a drinking just fine. I searched the coop this morning looking for more abnormal poops and didn't find any. I have 11 hens. Should I treat them all?

    Help! Bloody poo?

    I haven't seen poop like this before. I didn't see any other odd looking poop. I will investigate futher tomorrow. I have treated my other girls for coccidiosis last fall but this one and her sisters haven't been treated for it. All my girls are acting normal.

    Help! Bloody poo?

    I found this today. It is from a 5½ month old hen. What is it and what do I do?

    Very interesting looking chicks

    Thank you! I was only supposed to keep 2 of the 8 that hatched but I kept 6. Chicken math right?? My hubby isn't convinced. Lol

    Very interesting looking chicks

    I have some 10 week old chicks. I am curious if anyone has any idea as to their breeds. I am a newish chicken mama. I got chicks for the first time last spring. One of my hens hatched some donor eggs March 31. These are them. There is a black and white one that wags her tail like a dog when she...

    Ended 13th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along—Hatching Chick Photo Contest

    The first babies Mama hatched. My first hatching chicks as well. She hatched 2 successfully. There was a third fully formed, but it sadly didn't hatch. We are planning on doing the Easter hatch along. I'm super excited, as is my 2 year-old.

    Mama lost her babies.

    Thank you for your kind words.❤ Mama is doing better now. She has stopped looking for her babies. She didn't sleep in the nesting box lastnight. She roosted with her sisters. Which was nice to see. We are going to try eggs again but we are going to wait until spring because the snow should...

    Mama lost her babies.

    It was super unusual for his dog. His dog has never had an accident here and has been around the chickens before. My brothers wife has been out of town for a couple weeks and the dog is more bonded with her. My brother was so mad. I have never seen him so mad! I stopped him from killing his...

    Mama lost her babies.

    I looked for other chicks. The only ones I could find they couldn't ship until the 29th. There were chicks here in town that were 15 weeks. Mine were 5. So I am not going to try to get her more chicks at this point. Although I really wish I could. We live in town and all our neighbors have...

    Mama lost her babies.

    Thank you for your kind words. These were the first ever eggs hatched for both of us. It is so sad but all I can do is learn from my mistakes and not let it happen again.

    Mama lost her babies.

I was trying to deal with the mess as my toddler right now is fascinated with potty.... my husband looks out the window and yells Chuck has...
