    There's something white coming out of my chickens butt

    One of my chickens just started laying and there is something white coming out of her butt, i have looked at pictures of prolapsed vents, and this doesn't look like that. It looks like egg white, could she just have messed up laying an egg? She doesn't look uncomfortable, but I separated her...

    One of my chicks is acting oddly - help!

    I just was checking on chicks and my five week old Rhode Island Red chick is keeping her head tucked underneath her body. It's not behind her wing, like when they sleep sometimes and she refuses to lift her head up. She is moving around a little, but she keeps her head tucked underneath her...

    What breed are these chicks? (PICS)

    I don't think that is a dark brahma, I have a 2 day old dark brahma chick, you can see in my picture, she is the chick on the left. She has feathered feet and she is much darker, she also has some yellow around her beak

    I just got my chicks from chickensforbackyards.com they have a wide variety, and you can get as few as 3 chicks. They have good customer service and they got my chicks to me the day after they were hatched shipping from Texas to New England in good condition.

    How to tame new chicks?

    Hi I just got my chicks yesterday, what works well for me is putting a bunch of feed in my hand and holding my hand out to the chicks. they eat right out of my hand and like to sit in it while eating

    Please Help Me Decide What Breed My 4th chick should be.

    I know it's not on your list, but I would go with a light brahma, they are incredibly cute as chicks ( The one on the left in my picture is an LB) and I have heard they are very docile as adults. They are pretty good brown egg layers

    Blue Bearded Silkies

    I watched the youtube video, they are incredibly cute. Can you accurately sex them? Where I am in Massachusetts I can't have roosters. Do you know if you will have any hatching in one to two weeks? That's when my chicks are coming.
