    Does this sound egg bound?

    Thank you, I have been trying the epsom salt baths, will try some tums today if I can. I am afraid it might be water belly, she's getting worse, can't stand up today and not eating. Her belly feels huge.

    Hen or Roo?

    These were hatched September 1, barnyard mix from RIR rooster and Olive Egger hen. I really want to keep these beauties but I am thinking they may be roos. The feather type at the neck is making it tricky, I am still a novice. I was able to guess correctly on the RIR chicks I hatched recently...

    Help me guess pullet or cockerel

    Maybe bossy wasn't the right word, more of a leader and strong minded/ mind of its own personality.

    Based on my very little knowledge and watching this little one's bossy attitude, I am guessing cockerel as well.

    Another game of hen or roo?

    These 2 are 12 weeks old and hand raised. Dad is a Rhode Island Red and one has an Americauna mom and one has an Olive Egger mom. What are your thoughts, hen or roo? I have a guess but I am too new at this to be sure. Thank you so much!!!

    Breaking through but not unzipping

    I ended up gently pulling a bit at the hole it made and it unzipped and pushed out. It smelled so bad, poor baby. She was active and yelling at me but it looks like something might be wrong with her leg. Hard to tell since it just hatched. It was stuck in that position for a long time, we...

    Breaking through but not unzipping

    I am paranoid because my other chick died trying to hatch, I apologize for asking even after reading all the similar posts. This baby has been like this for about 7 hours. It snoozes on and off and chirps plenty. I can see the beak moving, but it seems to just be poking it's beak out not...
