    100 year old coops

    We recently bought a farm and on this farm are 3 coops that were build in 1905-1915. I have had to do little maintenance to them (only using 2 of them currently). Fix a sagging door, repair some broken windows, add screens and add electric. The biggest upgrade to them was fencing them in. Im...

    Sick chick. Got pecked a lot. Thoughts?

    seems like she is doing fine now. We kept her isolated for 2-3 days. She is now running with the flock. but she still makes a very unique chirp, just like in the video. she makes over and over and over. but other than that, she seems fine.

    Sick chick. Got pecked a lot. Thoughts?

    This is what we found. She will take water from a syringe. Will not eat solids. Just chirps over and over. Not scared of us. Will not walk. Poop is clearish. We put that purple no peck stuff on the back. Thoughts?

    Dead chicken this morning. (Warning pics)

    All 15 birds were put up in their coop last night but this morning one was dead. She shows no apparent signs of any attacks or any pecks. I know she was high on the pecking order. Her head is wet and her intestines look like the are trying to come out the vent. Again no signs of pecking at the...
