    Bright green, watery poop?

    She just laid an egg!!! She’s looking much better and is clicking and eating again. I found this monstrosity in the egg box.. The egg isn’t broken, though. What could be stuff around it then? Yolk or poop?

    She just walked into the nest box... could she possibly have egg binding?

    Bright green, watery poop?

    I have a 3 1/2 year old Rhode island red hen. Today when I went to let her out of the coop, she was lethargic and didn’t make noise to greet me like she usually does. She was fine yesterday, though. She just went into the bushes to hide and her bottom is sort of.. half open. What could this be...

    Chicken died, will the other one be ok?

    Thank you so much! About what age should the new chicken be? Also, do chickens mourn the loss of others? :hit Mine seemed very understanding. I don't know if she knew her sister died, but she wandered around looking for her the last few days and looked to be quietly thinking, as if she...

    Chicken died, will the other one be ok?

    Will the other one be okay? Should I get another to keep her company, and should they be about the same age?

    Chicken died, will the other one be ok?

    I only have two RIR hens. One died last night while I was away at band camp. I'm not quite sure what happened myself, but apparently he head got stuck in a hanging pot.

    Two soft-shelled eggs in a row?

    I have an almost 18-month-old RIR hen. She's laid two soft shelled eggs in a row. Should I supply her with more calcium (what should I do?)

    Egg bound chicken??

    Now she's listless and silent again - she will still eat but is slower to respond. She won't cluck, either. Her poop is normal. What could this be? Help!! Also, is there any other way to check for a stuck egg? (I don't really trust myself with the vent method)

    Egg bound chicken??

    Clarification: She started showing symptoms just today, not an entire week. She hasn't laid an egg for a week, but otherwise seemed fine until today.

    Oh, and before she stopped laying my mom noticed that both my chickens' eggs weren't as hard-shelled as before.

    Egg bound chicken??

    At first, I couldn't find her. I called for about 5 minutes before I looked under the deck and found her, unresponsive. She did end up coming out, but her comb was very pale and she was panting and not talking. I thought she had heat stroke at first, so i dipped her into cold water and patted...
