    Buff Orpington balance issues

    My six month old lady appears to have developed a hesitancy to put weight on her right foot. Sometimes she stumbles a bit to that side but never falls. She also seems to lean a lot on that side to feeding box or other stationary objects. Thoughts?

    Junglefowl?

    Don’t understand. 2 others say the blonde is a Buff Orpington?

    Junglefowl?

    Apparently, these ladies are Red Junglefowl. Is that true? About twelve inches tall and base of neck to rump (not tail) about 8 inches. Given to me by a neighbor. Thanks!!

    Do you Clean out poop from the run?

    I use the product shown below. My ladies [no roosters - a.k.a. "serial rapists" - need apply!] are in an Omlet enclosure with a dirt floor. I work the droppings into the dirt periodically and give them a bag of Koop Clean and let them spread it around themselves - once a year.

    Omlet Runs

    Omlet is tremendous [and tremendously expensive, but worth it]. I have two eglus and the walk in run.

    Americanus stop laying

    I have three one-year old Americanus hens that were laying beautifully until two weeks ago. Other seven ladies continuing to lay. Weird??

    Bald spot, broody and docile

    A year old - regular layer. I needed to remove her from the nest two days in a row. No discharge. Bald spot behind her comb - see attached.

    Bald spot, broody and docile

    One of my ladies seems to have a bald spot and a comb that has gotten a bit smaller. She has been broody for two days in a row and when I moved her she was very docile which is not normal for her. I can pick her up, move her wings and she shows no resistance. She stands fine when I pick her up...

    Identification?

    Not sure what a “sex link” is. Is that a type of hen breed or an actual individual specific breed?

    Identification?

    They did not have the room for chickens - raised them from chicks - about three months old. Two of these and one plymouth barred rock. Will take the photos you requested! Thanks very much!!
