    Need a chicken sling

    I think she finds the position unfamiliar. She's not used to having her legs under her like that and not able to touch the ground.

    Need a chicken sling

    She's not loving the sling at all. Keeps flapping like crazy trying to get out while she's in it. The leg holes seem plenty big, but I've noticed her toes are getting cool when she's in it (is that just the A/C because I have her in the house? or is her circulation getting cut off?). The vet...

    Need a chicken sling

    This is exactly what I was looking for! I have a chicken who just had leg surgery to correct a tendon issue and is going to hurt herself if I don't restrain her and keep her from moving too much. Thank you for all the photos!

    All Black Wyandotte? Is that possible

    I have about 10 chicks from a recent hatch. The one in question was supposed to be a Wyandotte, but is all back (yes, developing all black feathers) and has black legs. Is this really a Wyandotte? Or another breed? I think the guy who shipped the eggs might have mixed this one up.

    chickencondos.com???

    I found coop that looks identical to the large Rhode Island coop here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BFO5KNW/?tag=backy-20 Reviews are pretty promising. Plus, this doesn't include shipping costs. Shipping from chickencondos to the East coast is looking to be very expensive...

    Grandpa's Treadle feeder vs. chicken condo feeder

    I'm really wanting to know, what do you think of the Barn Coop you got from chickencondos? I'm considering one of their coops, but am interested in real-world experience with them (they seem almost too good to be true).

    I'd love to know anyone's experience using these. I'm interested in one as well... just the coop. I can make a better run for much cheaper.

    Aspirating Chick: Advice please!

    Update: It does appear the chick has wry neck, as it is now more down and under her most of the time. I've been giving her food, water (with vitamins/electrolytes), and vitamins (E and Polyvisol) as much as possible, although almost exclusively by eye dropper until today. Today I was able to...

    Aspirating Chick: Advice please!

    Over the weekend, I had a very problematic hatch. One of the chicks was having an especially difficult time getting out, so I helped the little gal. I thought at the time she was just straining her neck in an attempt to wriggle free of the shell (she had positioned poorly and was having...
