    Hen Losing Feathers (Possible Bullying?)

    We do not have a rooster. We will give her a second round as you recommended, I think what you said about over preening sounds like it very well may be the culprit. She does molt but it’s always very light. Her left wing is somewhat scabbed over but the dark spot you are talking about almost...

    Hen Losing Feathers (Possible Bullying?)

    One of our 3 year old hens has been losing feathers randomly for the past couple of months. We noticed the feathers on her back and top of her wings have been very “shallow” and short for a while now, but within the past few weeks it has gotten worse. We bathed her with epsom salt/dawn for...

    Hen Constantly Shaking Head/Discharge

    One of my twelve girls has had an issue with constantly shaking her head/slinging discharge since she was fairly young. She is going on 3 years old and still seems to struggle with this issue, whereas the rest of the flock are all fine. I know this can be caused by several different things, but...

    Pullet or cockerel?

    Wonder what the mix is! I’ve never had EEs but it’s kind of fun not knowing what colors and sizes they will be :love

    Pullet or cockerel?

    You’re totally right, I didn’t think about them possibly being different mixes!

    Pullet or cockerel?

    I bought 2 chicks from the feed store to go along with my 2 chicks I ordered from MPC (2 out of 4 didn’t make it in the mail 😢). I typically try not purchase from feed store as they often end up being sexed wrong, but I wanted some that day so they would all be close to same size and age. These...

    Chicken w/ Multiple Symptoms - How to Diagnose?

    I apologize in advance as these aren’t very good pictures... I took them this afternoon while she was in the tractor and she would not stop scratching long enough for me to get a decent shot. Her comb appears to look normal to me. I should also probably mention that I haven’t noticed runny...

    Chicken w/ Multiple Symptoms - How to Diagnose?

    Thanks for the links... She is between 4-5 (we inherited her when we purchased the property, so I don't have an exact age).

    Chicken w/ Multiple Symptoms - How to Diagnose?

    One of our best layers has been going downhill rather quickly in the last few weeks. It all started with her losing her appetite, and then a short time later we noticed she was having constant diarrhea which was sticking to/obstructing her vent. My wife and I have dipped/bathed her clean a few...

    Flock Hasn't Laid in Over 2 Months

    We have only had chickens for a little over a year now and this is our first time to have had babies, I guess we didn’t realize it would disrupt the adults laying for this long and we got worried. Hopefully that’s all it is. Thanks for the reply!
