    Polish chicks being weird (almost drowned, poorly attempted dust bathing, winking)

    I have 9 polish chicks around 8 days old. They’re all healthy and active. I check them every 2-6 hours adjusting their brooder temperature and ventilation, cleaning their pine shavings, and changing their food and water. They’ve been chirping, eating, drinking, and pooping all fine but lately...

    Sudden death from pasty butt

    Thank you! I was actually planning on ordering corid for my older girls after reading a separate article haha. My baby chicks are not vaccinated. The hatchery I got them from didn’t have the option ;( But luckily they are in medicated feed. I didn’t know you could give babies corid, but I will...

    Sudden death from pasty butt

    I’m so sorry for your loss and I definitely agree sometimes it really comes down to the failure to thrive. The worst part is when you give them your all and they still can’t bounce back. You read forums, study articles upon articles, and do everything in your power to help them survive but...

    Sudden death from pasty butt

    I recently got 10 polish baby chicks. This morning I found my favorite chick had passed away. She had poop sealing her vent so I’m guessing she passed away from pasty butt on top of other underlying factors. Yesterday afternoon and night, I admit she did seem a bit off. She kept falling asleep...

    Picking up chicks at the post office

    According to USPS, I am allowed to go to the distribution center but all of the reviews online said it’s not worth it since it’s nothing but a warehouse with trucks coming in and out. I’m just worried about getting them on time. It’s my first time raising polish chicks and I heard that they’re...

    Picking up chicks at the post office

    Hi! I ordered 10 polish/crested chicks in the mail and just got a notification at 1am saying that they’re at the distribution center and “in transit to the destination” and by destination, I’m guessing it’s my local post office. But I’m on the fence about waiting for them at my post office or...

    SHOW OFF YOUR YUM! Food Photography Thread

    Made these in quarantine this past week. First one is Korean spicy noodles called bibimmyeon with thick cut pork belly and a fresh boiled egg. The second one is chicken donkas with carbonara pasta.

    Dyeing chickens pink?

    So I saw this girl on tiktok she her silkie with purple food coloring and I wanted to do it too. But before I jumped on that bandwagon, I did some research just to see what other people have said. Turns out there are a lot of people who like to dye their chickens. Obviously dyeing an animal a...

    Hens eating eggs

    I have 10 hens. All good layers but unfortunately they keep eating their own eggs. I tried almost everything: -golf balls and fake eggs in their nests -oyster shell -mustard filled eggs for almost a week (they ate those too and I tried all kinds of different mustard) -made a slide in their...

    Apologetic Neighbor

    Thank you! Yeah, didn’t burn anything except twigs and the wind wasn’t blowing too bad. Regardless, we felt so bad about the smoke. Thank goodness we finished all of our burning that day. I’m definitely gonna try and leave a box of friend chicken at their door steps sometime this week! Thanks...

    Apologetic Neighbor

    I forgot to mention this but a couple of days ago my dad was setting some dead tree branches on fire and a lot of the smoke went to Christian’s side. He complained and we felt so sorry about it because the fire wouldn’t die down until 9 hours later 💀 We fixed our fence recently so none of my...

    Apologetic Neighbor

    I’m a bad neighbor. My girls are really loud since it’s getting warmer and my dad has been doing house construction for the past 2 months now. My tiny dog keeps running outside into the street and I always chase after him barefoot. We can’t go anywhere because of covid-19 and all my neighbors...

    Korean Sauna Eggs

    Okay, plebeians. When my sister and I first went to a South Korean convenient store, we tried making ramen there. We wanted to add eggs and grabbed the first ones we saw. They were really expensive like $3 for a pack of two but we didn’t care we just thought they were raw eggs... we were wrong...

    Baby chick bathroom problem

    It might be her diet then. Consider adding a tiny drop of apple cider vinegar and dilute it with about half a cup of distilled water and feeding it to her. Or try feeding her a tiny bit of plain yogurt diluted in water.
