That is how we found the egg,in the coop. She wasn't eating for a day or two after she laid that but has recovered and gone back to eating and drinking, she is at the bottom of the pecking order and so she doesn't stay with the rest of the flock. Thank you for your help, we will keep a close eye...

we have a 4 year old white leghorn who hasn't laid an egg for over 6 months. This week she laid this, she wasn't herself at first but seems fine now. what is it? should we be worried?

Zekey's a mallard. And yes the chickens aren't that friendly apart from one which has taken him under her wing (literally) since he was a duckling. But thankyou very much for the help guys :) we've been putting salty water on it for the past few days and the inflamation seems to have gone down...

Hey guys, My duck has this going on with his eye. Although the photo doesn't show it very well, at the bottom of his eyes its quite foamy. We've been treating him for mites for the feather loss, but he's also getting picked on by one or two of the chickens. So we're not sure whether he's been...

Ok, thank-you very much for the help :)

Hey guys, I have a call duckling who is a week and a bit old, he's on his duckling mix but the lady we bought him from said I will need to give him greens when he gets a bit older. He'll be free ranged when he's older and will eventually get scraps like the chickens do, but as a duckling what...

Alright that's a shame my friend won't be thrilled. Thankyou though :)

Hey guys, My friends brother has a 5 month old silky, and is fairly new to chickens and he wants to know its gender he was told it was a hen but he has 3 other layer hens that are about to start laying and doesn't want to risk getting fertilized eggs, unfortunately I only have layers and am not...

Thank you, we will keep treating it, but i didn't think it would be because the scab isn't black like I thought it was supposed to be.

Hey guys, My hen has this lump on the side of her foot, now before you say Bumblefoot, she only recently had Bumblefoot on that same foot, but the lump went down and the scab went away, this lump has a scab but its not black like Bumblefoot. (Pictures below) I have a feeling that the medication...

It looks like scaly leg, its when mites live under the scales on the chickens foot and causes them to stick up. I'm not a complete expert but thats what it looks like.

Thats what we are confused about. She looks like an OEGB but she came from a layer egg :P

Haha believe me my bird gets enough attention and if he doesnt, he again throws himself on the floor and screams :D bi polar? That would make sense for my bird too :P Well in that case we can share this thread :) Perhaps we can both learn :)

Hey guys, I have a 9 month old galah with a biting habit. Whn we first got him he was gorgeous, he never bit anyone, then a few weeks later, biting came in with a temper to match. Seriously, if he trips over something he throws himself on his back and screams. We have tried everything to...
