    Prolapse

    I will try this- thank you! So... even if she had prolapse it can go away? Or stay inside? Sorry if that’s silly, I still need to research prolapse more. I never saw it again after that one time and she was in good spirits the rest of the day

    New coop-mates question

    Ohhh ok. You’ve got quite the age gap, which I expect I will have at some point too when adding new ones to my older flock.

    New coop-mates question

    You are right. They seem totally fine with the big girls, but they do like the refuge. I just worry they arent getting used to the bigger gals. But again, no bullying just chasing!

    Danish brown (?) 4.5 weeks old. boy or girl?

    how can you tell? From their combs? I can’t believe out of the four I got three could be male.... the reason I got chicks was for the eggs.

    Danish brown (?) 4.5 weeks old. boy or girl?

    My “twin” girls are starting to look very different.... please tell me Daisy is a girl who just grew a lot quicker than the others and not a cockerel?
