    Pullet unsteady on her feet

    It's the wet season here so it's impossible to keep her area dry but I've been doing my best to keep it clean.

    Pullet unsteady on her feet

    I'm in Australia. I feed her egg layer feed or pullet crumble and for treats she gets fruit and veg scraps, scrambled egg and dried mealworms. It's pretty hot during the day, as high as 38°C some days. Unfortunately where she currently is, is the coolest place I can put her.

    Pullet unsteady on her feet

    My 16 week old pullet seems to be unsteady on her feet. She stumbles alot and seems weak, she's also been drooping her wings but I think that may be due to the heat. I think she's a little thin but not super skinny. Currently treating for coccidiosis once I'm finished with that I'll treat her...

    Baby with naked bum

    Two of my chicks have naked bums but one is a lot worse than the other. There is a little redness around the bald patch on the worse one and the bald patch is pretty big. I don't know how old they are but would estimate 4 weeks. Is there anything I can do to help?

    Accidentally opened incubator

    My eggs aren't supposed to be hatching until tomorrow at the earliest and I opened the incubator to fill the water and didn't realise 2 of the eggs were pipping. It was only open for a few seconds until I noticed, are they going to be okay?

    Bald, scabbed wings

    One of my 10 week old Brahmas has always had bald elbows but now she's covered in scabs and picked at skin. I see her scratching all the time but she doesn't have mites. How do I stop her from picking at her skin?

    Bald wing tips

    I'm in the northern part of Australia. I'll try to get some different feed next time I go into town and give it a try.

    Bald wing tips

    I'm feeding an all in one egg layer feed. They don't need heat here because it's 25°c/77°f - 38°c/100°f and I spend at least an hour with them every day and I don't see any of the others plucking her feathers. Yes the had mites when I treated them initially about a month ago and I treated them...

    Gday everyone

    My parents chickens and ducks became my responsibility about 3 months ago and I have completely fallen in love with them since.

    Bald wing tips

    My little Brahma has had bald wing tips since she hatched and they're now covered in scabs and she's getting bald patches in other places. Can anyone tell me what's wrong with her?
