    Possible Infectious Coryza?

    No, I have not had this in my flock before now. Additionally, these are all new/young chickens I purchased as day old chicks and I am at a new home. The previous owners did not have chickens and were here for several years. No neighbors bordering my property have chickens (so, for several acres...

    Possible Infectious Coryza?

    Possible fowl pox?

    Thank you ValerieJ and Eggcessive. I appreciate it very much. Should I worry that my ducks will get it as well? I have fresh oregano growing in the garden, maybe I will throw some in the coop and hope it helps them all fight it naturally. Eggs are still OK for us to consume? Thanks again!

We noticed a large rock had been overturned in the coop since the chickens were digging under it and we thought maybe her foot had been stuck under...

    Silkie thread!

    Thanks for sharing! Yes, I have them as pets and for eggs. I just love the silkie breed and wanted to add it to my flock. The person I bought them from told me the colors she thought they were, but as they were getting more feathers, I started to wonder. So, I'm happy with whatever I have; just...
