Hello!
I'm looking to find a home for my Frizzle EE. She's approximately 2 years old and a very good layer of green/blue eggs, she's been laying right through winter this year. She's healthy and well socialized. I often hand feed and hold her. She's mostly black with a few golden feathers on...
My EE hen woke up saturday and she wouldn't eat, was moving around slowly and pooping out a clear liquid with white and yellow bits (what I would describe as urates).
At first I thought she was having an issue laying because she is usually a good layer. She hadn't laid in a couple days and was...
An update on Sugar:
After 2 long months of antibiotics and hand feeding and trying to fight this illness with her we have made the very difficult decision to have her put to rest. I made an appointment with our vet today.
She has still been laying the lash material every week. Her course of...
Sorry for the late reply I just saw this message. Thank you for all the info. Here is the latest update on Sugar…
She started laying lash egg on March 11th. We took her to the vet that night and started her on antibiotics (I don’t know which kind of antibiotics the label didn’t say) we had a 7...
Thank you for the detailed reply! Here’s a few more details based on the questions you had.
She is 2.5 years old.

My RIR Sugar is sick :(
she hasn’t laid a normal egg in a year, always soft eggs.
2 weeks ago she started acting really sick. She wouldn’t move or eat. We rushed to the emergency vet and on the way there she laid a lash egg. The vet (who was an avian vet) had no idea what a lash egg was or...
Whoa that is wild. I mostly worry about her having trouble laying. Does your chicken lay these wrinkle eggs consistently and does she have trouble with laying?
My Rhode Island Red Sugar is about 2.5 years old. She was a consistent layer of perfect eggs up until this year.
About 6 months ago she started laying very odd shaped eggs. They would be huge and lumpy shaped (not perfectly oval) or sometimes with a wrinkle in the shell or a complete soft...
Hi all,
I'm looking into moving to Pomona and I can't find any information about keeping backyard chickens there. Does anyone here live in the Pomona area and know more about chicken ordinances or know who I should contact?
My questions in case anyone knows: Are chickens allowed in Pomona...
Hello chicken friends!
Last night I checked on the chicks before I went to bed I saw a small bug on one of my chickens foot. I killed it and determined that it was an adult poultry lice. I check on them every night as they are roosting and inspect under their wings weekly. I have never seen one...
