    MY 8 WEEK OLD BR ATE MY EARRING!!!

    Hey guys! My 8 week old BR was standing on my shoulder and pecked my earring right off my ear! It was about 1/2 cm big, one of those that you get when you first get your ears pierced, so it was rather pointy… 😰 Ive read a few posts on chickens eating earrings, and apparently it will pass, but...

    Chicken fell from 3 metres +, wobbly, sleepy

    Hi guys, One of my brown shavers was up in a tree, but somehow slipped and fell onto the grass. I think she landed on her head and rolled a few times. She is now limp and very sleepy. She cant get up simple ledges and when getting down from them, she spreads her wings and lands on them? Like how...

    7 week old barred rock, roo or pullet?

    She has silkies and Plymouth rocks only, which really confuses me haha:idunno Could he be a hybrid? Would it be possible for a Plymouth rock and a Malines to mate and make him? Either way, glad to know that he's a cockerel. He's awfully gentle:love Damn, now i'm just embarrassed. Thanks for...

    7 week old barred rock, roo or pullet?

    Ok, so apparently the chicks are Plymouth rocks, not Barred rocks. I wonder why that one has leg feathers though, maybe an egg mixup? I will have to check....

    7 week old barred rock, roo or pullet?

    Oh really? wow! thats really unexpected! We got another batch of chicks from the same lady about 3 weeks ago, same type of eggs. Could that mean that they aren't barred rocks either? The rest of them look exactly the same as the above chick, just younger and without feathers on its legs. .That...

    5 week old with white diarrhea, refusing to eat?

    Hi guys, i have a 5 week old barred rock rooster who is refusing to eat and has slimy white diarrhea. He is already weaker than usual. He lost his brother about 2 days ago, and has moved in with our other 1 week old barred rock chicks. At first, he seemed fine, but a few days ago he just...

    Should I open this egg further?

    Maybe ensure that it can breathe so that it doesn't suffocate.

    My eggs haven’t hatched

    I'm a chicken person myself, but i'm guessing these are duck eggs? I've heard that duck eggs take a while to hatch, so patience is key. The first picture looks like the chick hasn't internally pipped yet, maybe wait a bit longer? You could make a little safety hole in the top of the egg just to...
