    Normal feet??

    We had a mama hatch this check. Mama was a Marans and dad is an Easter egger. I haven’t paid attention too much to my chickens feet and thought hers looked different! Also- pullet or roo?? Hatched April 6th

    Heat stroke?!

    Unfortunately she passed. thank you! She unfortunately passed. I had brought them both inside and they succumbed pretty quickly. I guess its a lesson learned for these upcoming summer months.

    Heat stroke?!

    Is this heat stroke?? 2nd chicken today. We reached 100° temps. Crop is fine, no mites, just lethargic, won’t eat or drink, won’t stand, and I’m not sure if this liquid is coming out the vent or mouth. I’ve been syringing water and electrolytes into her.

    2 day old chick- eye injury??

    I received my chicks today and noticed this one has a janky eye. She doesn’t move a whole lot so I can’t tell if she’s just a sleepy baby or maybe hurt. She pooped so I believe she’s eating/drinking. I did email the company I received them from, but wondering if anyone has seen this and if they...

    Zero eggs…why?

    I have 20 laying hens almost 7 months old. Great layers but I haven’t gotten a single egg in a week. No changes in feed, they free range, water is endless. We did have a week of over 100+ degrees outside and they stopped laying shortly after. Could it be the heat? In the middle of the heatwave...

    Laying signs?

    My girls are a little over 18 weeks now. Some of their combs and waddles have gotten really red here lately but not swollen, and I noticed one of my Anconas had made a small hole in the ground and seemed to be nesting in it. Is that a sign it may be soon? After almost 5 months of raising them...

    Crop issue- help wanted

    Yes! I told my husband it needed to be mowed prior, but I had no idea he had let them out. The unfortunate part about our property is we inherited it and underneath all the trees are barbed wire, chains, old batteries, and lord knows what else. So it's been a process trying to clear it all out...

    Crop issue- help wanted

    I noticed yesterday evening my two 16 week old Marans had HUGE crops. My husband let them out to free range yesterday and when I looked back at the camera that faces the coop I noticed some chickens were up under trees that have long grass. This morning, the crops were not as big as last night...
