    Hi everyone, Have a chick I purchased from tractor supply on Saturday and noticed yesterday that it was having poop stick to its feathers around its vent and lower abdomen. Today I washed the area gently to clean away the poop and found a very small hole in her abdomen and poop does come out...

    Rescued a Rhode Island Red girl from our next door neighbor who released their flock to be eaten by the coyotes. Well to say the least I had to play nice, but this is so angering. I'm attaching pictures of Little Lady's beak. I could go on about these 3 chicken but for now I'll stick to...
