    There are air bubbles covering the wound. What causes that and should I do anything about it?

    New chick mom - poop problems!

    I wouldn't worry about the poop. Here's a good chart to help decide what's normal or not. http://pluckandfeather.com/chicken-poo-chart-graphic.html Yes, chickens only have the one hole called the vent, but some babies have a "bellybutton" for the first couple days, not really a hole. Pasty...

    Help! Rooster tore off skin on hen's head

    It's about 4 months old, I was suspicious since it didn't squat like the others.
