Hi, so let me start this off by saying, I have no idea how it happened. My sister has a golden doodle and usually doesn’t listen to me when I say to supervise him. I thought that my duck coop was completely predator proof but her dog got in and killed half of my flock of ducks. He didn’t eat...
Mrs. Frizzle, she was a frizzle bantam. Was a super silly chicken and she acted like a dog. She’d jump up at the food scooper and follow me everywhere. And I freaking killed her. I am so upset with myself, and it doesn’t help that my mom was awful to me about it. It was 100° today and I had been...
I only have one silkie, so I’m not sure if this is normal or not. My silkie is just very unstable, she’s been like this for weeks, which is why I just assumed it may be normal for silkies to be weaker. When she comes out of her coop in the mornings she stumbles out like a drunken sailor. She has...
This is how I found my hen, Nugget, in my chicken coop tonight! Not sure how long she’s been like this. It’s 36° outside right now and it rained a lot yesterday. He feet are very red and look like they’re missing scales. She ate a little food when prompted to do so. Could she just be very cold...
It’s okay, my mom just told me I have to say my goodbyes and let him go even though I really don’t want to. He’s my favorite duck and he has been for a while. I believe he was trampled by the other ducks that are with him, they’ve been getting along for a long time, so I think it was just an...
This duck is about six months old and he was injured when I got him him resulting in the leg that goes up. But the other side, I believe he was stepped on, sticks up in the back more than it should. I’ll add a video, and listen to it with sound on because I am talking about what I see with him...
Sadly she passed away :/ I’m not sure if she was vaccinated for Mareks, I got her when she was about a week or two old from a chicken farmer out of town. Both of my Wyandottes from there passed away, so I don’t think they were vaccinated. All of the chicks I’ve hatched get vaccinated by me, I...
The first day I went and he was laying on his back in the coop, he was fine the day before, so this was very odd to me. I pulled him out and he was very wobbly, he stumbled and seemed like he struggled to walk. Well he started to get better, but then his leg stuck straight forward and we could...
