    My silkie has been acting sick for the past week, i brought her in and have been trying to nurse her, but she isn't looking any better.

    Chicken clicking his beak?

    I just got a five wk old rooster from one of my friends, and he's clicking his beak. I've never had one this young and was wondering if this is normal? I've got over twenty and have never heard this. Do some chickens do that or could it be a problem?

    eye problem PICS

    One of my hens had this problem. I was told to use some meds you buy at the feed store, but it never helped any. I didn't seprate her from the other chicken (i only had two at the time) thinking it was just a cold, and she would be ok, but she only has one eye now because it would never heal up...
