    Squeaking with a side of white ears!

    Since posting I have also tried looking for a bound egg. I found nothing but went ahead and gave her a tums mixed with some sour cream. She ate some reluctantly. Before I could get her in a worm bath she passed what looked like some albumin with something in it. I have a photo but when I went...

    Squeaking with a side of white ears!

    Hi All, I have a 3 year old hen who started speaking about 2 weeks ago. I searched the site and found another thread where someone posted a video of a hen making exactly the same noise, but the thread was old and when I left a comment asking how it resolved I didn’t hear back.

    New chick, bad toe.

    New chick, bad toe.

    Hi there, it's been about 9 years since I've had any chickens, but I've finally settled down again and have been plotting and planning and then yesterday on more of a whim the feed store had cucumarans and I couldn't resist. It was hard to reach into the brooder and required someone else be on...
