    do chickens eat goathead weeds?

    Ditto. I just moved into a new house infested with the little buggers. I've been de-weeding for weeks, but I don't know what to do about all the thorny seeds. I haven't let the chickens out in the main yard yet, but I'm curious as well of they'll eat them or will they hurt them somehow.

    Odd wing on chick

    Nurse, I took some additional photos. I don't think she has the extra row of secondary feathers... but her feathers are quite large compared to her sisters. Dancing, seems like we're in the same boat! I looked more into slipped wing/angel wing and maybe that's it. These are pets, so...

    Hello from Arizona!

    Hi! Been studying up on BYC as using it as a resource for a while nw, but finally took the plunge and got an account. I've got three sex links growing at my place in Tempe, AZ! Love the girls to death already. Wish I knew how to post pics from an iPad so I could show off!

    Odd wing on chick

    Hello all! I'm a long time fan and reader on this website, but I finally had a reason to create an account to post. I have some red sex link chicks, and one is developing oddly. Both of her wings don't fold quite right... When they're at her side, the end of the wing folds on top so it kind of...
