    What could cause a chick's wings to stick straight out from its body?

    I had a blue laced red wyandotte chick that started having it's feathers stick out at almost a 90° angle. Yesterday it died. I have a friend that said she heard coccidiosis can cause this. Pic was taken when I first started to notice them starting to stick out weird. No other chicks have had...

    Blue laced red wynadottes??

    I am picking these two chicks up tomorrow from a local farmer that raises the best tempered birds. They are both full blooded wynadottes, but she wasn't 100% if they are blue laced red or not. We both think they are due to the blue undertones, but wanted to get second opinions/ confirmation.

    Injury after attack- need help ASAP.

    She is doing astounding! We treated her for wry neck, and she is back to normal now. We are happy to have our girl back acting like herself!

    Injury after attack- need help ASAP.

    We had 34, and only 13 survived. She was the only one with injuries. Out of the 21 killed, 8 completely vanished with no trace. 13 of them were found dead in the run with absolutely no injuries. The only thing we can come up with is that they had heart attacks or it killed them to come back...

    Injury after attack- need help ASAP.

    We had a fox or coyote get into our run and it took out 21 of our flock. One of our black sexlink hens was acting strange, and we thought she was in shock. It has been 3 days since the attack. I am beginning to think she has a broken or severely injured neck. It is very floppy and jelly...

    This baby is a week old today. It's mom is frizzle. The tips of its wings stick out from the body, and they are crimped.
