    Burr-mergency!! Our Llama Is Covered In Burrs

    Hello everyone. I am in some serious need of helpful advice. The other day our pet Llama got loose and ran through the tree-line along our pasture. By the time we caught up to him he was COVERED IN BURRS!! I’m not talking about a few, or even a lot, I mean he is literally a giant burr...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    Not quite. It was white, it looked like a large chuck of scrambled egg with a tail, I wish I would've taken a picture but I have so many other animals here I was worried about one of them getting at it and getting sick so I burned it in the burn barrel right away. I put her back outside and she...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    Ok so she seems to be doing much better, she's eating very well, is much more energetic and alert, and is a lot less growly. She still hasn't laid an egg however and has poop of her hind feathers again, which is how she was when we first got her. She's not just laying around anymore though. I...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    Well, I don't know what it was. If it was her ovary would she still be alive a full 24 hours later? There was no blood at all, not in it, around it, or before or after. I would think something that significant would come with at least some blood loss? There is no blood in her poop now either...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    I don't know about their beaks, except that all 4 have lower beaks that are longer than the upper. One of the ladies has a lower beak that is grossly overgrown, but she doesn't seem in pain, and she eats just fine so I think it maybe bothers me more than her. Unfortunately I could only get him...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    Here she is in her new temporary digs until she is all better and ready to rejoin the other ladies (and gents). I made her a mash with yogurt and feed and she LOVED it!!! She is eating very well now, but still growling a bit. She has clucked a little too though, and it's the first time I've...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    I got her to eat a little yogurt now too. She is much more alert and active now, even preening herself a bit!! She is pooping but it's been pretty much clear liquid, which is now my main concern I think. But until a couple of hours ago she hasn't eaten anything for a while so I'm going to keep...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    She's not too hot, the room she is in is a pretty cold room, I put her in the basement to keep her out of the sunlight. She wasn't eating yesterday at all, but I got her to eat some lettuce today, and she has perked up quite a bit now since she passed that thing, and rested over night. She...

    just wanted to say hi

    Yes we do!!! we went to get just one roo, but the guy had too many himself and asked if we'd take the other one, and a hen too. I could never say no to a furry face, feathered faces are no exception!! They haven't fought with eachother at all, and Hannibal is way too busy squawking and chasing...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    She is drinking water on her own, she actually started drinking her bath water, then when I put her under the heat lamp I gave her fresh water and she drank that too. I put some feed in with her and she nibbled a bit after she passed that thing she passed (which to me looked like a large chunk...

    My Hen laid a deformed hard-boiled egg HELP ?!?!

    Hello everyone, I have been reading this form for some time but this is my first post. I am new to chickens so this may be a common thing but I have searched the net and haven’t found anything even close to it. A few days ago we picked up four new laying hens. The farmer had them kept in very...
