    White and black spots on comb and wattles

    This is my neighbors chicken and they asked me what i thought and I'm thinking this is from previous bullying and the lighter spots are from healed scabs or its fowl pox. Google images aren't helpful enough. Does anyone have any idea what this is and any relevant details regarding cause...

    Extra clump of shell on egg

    Not at all! It's been hot so I have avoided too many treats that aren't rich in hydration so only tomatoes, watermelon and such. I will say that I had them on flock raiser because the store ran out of layer pellets due to weevils so i had just started that back up last week and I did give them...

    Chicken Bully/Coop Issues

    I would try isolating the bully first. I had one that was constantly mean to several ladies and I finally got sick of it and put her in a wire crate inside the coop with her own food and water. It ended up being a total of I think 3 days. I let her out day 1 to see if she could play nice and...

    Extra clump of shell on egg

    Has anyone ever seen an egg with clumps like this on the edge. My ladies range from 2 years to 9 months and this is my first like this. Is this bad?

    Picking on one chicken

    I have 16 ladies, 2 roos. I've had the coop for 1.5 years and the rooster are the most recent change. Other than that the coop has been running well. It's not space or water/food as they have plenty of that. I'm surprised that it's happening because these ladies have together awhile and expected...

    Picking on one chicken

    My current flock has been established for a few months except 2 roos have come into their roles. Now 2 of my ladies, maybe 3, have of started pecking on one of the others. She was cornering herself trying to keep the from pecking her head and now she had a good chunk of feathers missing from her...

    My (quite short) TSC feed experiment.

    Where at? We are in Houston and all I see is Chem trails like our port isn't polluting enough

    My (quite short) TSC feed experiment.

    I know it wasn't aimed at me and I've been speaking generally.... It's more that people take one sentence out of the whole statement as if that sentence stands alone. It has nothing to do with facts when you isolate it from the rest of the context; that is what i mean by picking it apart. I...

    My (quite short) TSC feed experiment.

    Lol, I don't really understand why statements have to be picked apart piece by piece. The ultimate point it that ALL/ANY manufacturing companies have recalls and can make crappy products. This whole post started on the premise of the theory that chicken feed is being messed with by its...

    My (quite short) TSC feed experiment.

    I believe I mentioned recalls and bad batches being a possibility. I feel like people forget we do live in a world riddled with imperfections and sometimes crappy things happen. Doesn't mean it is an intentional ploy to screw backyard chicken farmers bc of their high egg cost. I mean if...
