    Carolina Chickenstock Spring 2013

    My two Silkie babies I got from Marsha are now happy little cheepers with their new mommy. My broody hen took both of them after just a few seconds of confusion. My little gosling followed me all around her little playpen today when I let her play in the rain puddles. Very pleased with...

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    Yes. There is a bone, just seems to be broken in several places so it is very floppy. The swelling is going down along with the deep purple bruises, I made a splint for her yesterday. She can walk completely normal if you support her bad side. I am hoping that her leg isn't dislocated at the...

    Guinea keet newly hatched, broken, possibly boneless leg

    Okay.. this guinea (possibly a chicken Guinea mix) hatched out sometime today. Problem 1 : momma broody was off the nest today Problem 2 : baby is definitely injured.. not sure if it got pecked, was born deformed, or what. Either way, the leg IS broken. It bends at weird angles and just seems...

    people with house chickens

    I've got three house chicks. Two are a pair of OEGBs that will likely be permanent residents.. the third is a White Leghorn pullet who is staying in their cage while she rehabs from a dog bite. Well... technically she is better now and has been able to go out for a few weeks now... I just can't...
