    Slipped tendon help!

    The chick was a week old at this point (almost 2 now) and had been dealing with it the entire time. We had just been hobbling it with no sign of improvement. I booted the foot just the other day but this morning I found that it managed to get its foot out and is back to hopping around on the one...

    Slipped tendon help!

    Have a week old chick that I thought just had splayed leg but it is not correcting. Working the leg today we heard a clicking sound like the tendon was trying to go back in place but we don’t want to rush it and cause her permanent injury. Anyone have experience with this and the projected...

    Bedding question

    Black spots on my chickens comb

    I’m in North Texas, Dallas area. We just got past a cold snap and the temperatures are settling into the mid 60s during the day. The spots have been on the one for probably a month now But her comb only started turning purple yesterday when it’s actually been getting warmer.

    Black spots on my chickens comb

    Help! All my hens are less than a year. I noticed one of them developed black spots on her comb and chucked it up to scabs from pecking when they’re settling in for the night on the roost as they didn’t seem to bother her and she is/was in really good health otherwise.

    Sexing Speckled Sussex

    We’ve handled them since they were babies and tolerate it pretty well still. (That’s Hannibal sitting on my shoulder in my profile pic 😆.) As far as aggression in the flock they are my second batch so the big girls are still running them around a bit when they get too close.
