    Rooster who doesn’t act like a rooster...?

    I am just going to hope he stays chill. If it weren’t for the feathers you would never guess he was a rooster. He’s such the baby of the flock right now and he’s not the youngest in the group.

    Rooster who doesn’t act like a rooster...?

    Rooster who doesn’t act like a rooster...?

    So our sweet boy here very much appears to be a rooster, but based on behavior not so much. He is the smallest chicken in the group of hens and sleeps tucked up underneath our two leghorn girls. Now we aren’t supposed to have roosters, but I feel horrible giving him to a place that says they...

    Wobbly hen

    Swollen crop?

    So we bought four chicks yesterday, by evening one of them had a bald swollen spot. Is it just her crop? Or should I be worried something else is wrong?

    Bald swollen lump on chest

    We just picked up 3-4 week old RIR and Barred Rack chicks this morning. All were fine, then this evening I discovered one with a huge bald section that looked like a swollen lump. Any ideas?

    Diary of a Crossbeak: Support for Special Needs Chickens and their Keepers

    I too have been feeding my little girl a mash and the rest of the girls join in with her to eat some, but always let her finish eating by herself and let her get priority when it comes to eating.
