    Mille Fleur D'uccle: Odd Broody Behavior?

    She isn't sitting in the nesting boxes at all that I can see... As for puffing? I don't know. She talks to me all of the time. D'uccles have a funny little chatter. She's usually pretty puffed up on her perch, but that doesn't seem different to me.

    Mille Fleur D'uccle: Odd Broody Behavior?

    She just ran from me in the back yard, that's not normal... No, no noises. She actually seems quieter than normal. Isn't it early for molting? I ordered her some fertilized eggs. We have a rooster, but he's a serama and I'm not sure he is getting the job done because he is so little. Now I'm...

    Mille Fleur D'uccle: Odd Broody Behavior?

    Hi everyone, My Mille Fleur D'uccle laid about 14 eggs under the leaves of the rhubarb bush. My daughter found them, with Penny sitting on them, and didn't realize what was happening. So, she moved Penny and collected the eggs. Penny is the sweetest chicken, and it's very obvious that...

    Ava died this morning. FREAKED and sad. Worried about the rest of my girls now. :(

    Yellow/white/clear discharge from vent - Sick chicken?

    Not stressed, per se, but annoyed or uncomfortable maybe. No swelling or signs of pain, not walking like a penguin... She's keeping to herself, which I guess she has been doing since her friend, Una, had to be put down. (Una and Ava were purchased at the same time from the same supplier and grew...

    Yellow/white/clear discharge from vent - Sick chicken?

    Hello everyone, I have a six-month-old Americauna who has turned up with a large wet spot below her roosting spot in the coop. This morning she gooed on me when I reached in to open the coop door. It was very thing with yellow and white in it. No odor. The wet spot has been there for about a...

    Sick Chicken... Maybe

    Thank you for your suggestions, everyone. :) Pickles (olive egger) pulled through. We never did figure out what was wrong, but whatever it was it has passed and it wasn't contagious! Phew!

    Broody Hen Thread!

    Her comb does seem a little paler to me, but overall, after checking her thoroughly from head to toe, she seems fine. She is used to being held and will generally put up a small fight, which she is still doing. But she is relatively docile and will almost always let us hold her anyway. Today she...
