    My girls have bare chests and bellies

    I will try to get some picks today. We have a lot going on today but will try. They change on sleeping. Sometimes I see one or 2 roost and one sleep in the nest box. It could be that they are bored when they are in there coop/run. I have thought that for a bit and have been trying to get some...

    My girls have bare chests and bellies

    They get outside to roam everyday. Most days is almost all day. I only have them in the run if I run to town or do errands and when I am gone a few mornings a week. I haven't seen any lice or mites but I have noticed them scratching a bit so that is why I was checking them out when I found her...

    My girls have bare chests and bellies

    They eat organic chicken feed I get local. Veggies including broccoli, carrots, red cabbage, green cabbage, lettuce, sometimes peas and green beans, fruit including banana, blue berries, strawberry all as a treat sometimes in the morning, and a little in the evening with meal worms when I close...

    My girls have bare chests and bellies

    I don't know which one laid the egg. I have an idea but not positive. Can I give it to all 3? Maybe put it in the water or something like that? I will look for the other stuff at tractor supply tomorrow. Thank you!!

    My girls have bare chests and bellies

    No they are not spending very much time in the nest at all. They go in lay their eggs and walk away and go back out. The only grumpiness I really can say is when it's treat time and they have been getting a little testy with eat other. I will get pictures of the other girls as well tomorrow. The...

    Possibly sick 5 week old pullets

    Hi! Spent quite a bit of time with them this afternoon/evening and no sneezing and no chattering. Nostrals look fine as well, no drainage. I'm still keeping a close eye on them and monitoring for any more signs of anything but I think we are ok. 🤞🙏

    Possibly sick 5 week old pullets

    Hi everyone, I am a new chick momma and have 3 around 5 weeks old. I went out to change their water and give them more feed yesterday evening and noticed that one has a little bit of clear drainage from the nostral and had sneezed. One of the others was "chattering" her beak. Several days ago I...

    Sick chick/pullet??

    Yes they are still the grower. And thank you for the info on the vitamins. Didn't witness/hear any sneezing this morning and nostral looks fine. Did not see the chatter this morning either but I also was not out there for very long.

    Black Star vs. Black Sex Link

    We purchased a few chicks from a farm supply store. We thought we were getting 3 different breeds but as I read about them, it looks like 2 of them are actually the same. The 2 were kept in separate pins, one was labeled "Black Star" the other was labeled "Black Star Sex Link"? If these are the...
