    Looking for a good standard breed for meat

    I'm looking for a breed that makes a decent meat breed but is not a hybrid invented to grow at super duper rates. I don't want cornish crosses. I tried Freedom Rangers last time but I'm looking for something that is more sustainable and frankly grows into a healthier chicken if we chose to...

    Cyst under the wing?

    No, I'm not sure it's a cyst. I just didn't know what else to compare the way it looks to. Yes, I think she's messing with it because it's bothering her. It seems like she picks it open again when the scab is starting to get old and probably starts to itch. It's raised a decent amount from...

    Cyst under the wing?

    Okay, I'm not new around here but I was locked out of my account and need help so made a new account to ask this question. I have a bird who has a cyst (or at least that's what it looks like) under her wing. It's about the size of a dime. When she messes with it, it starts bleeding quite a...
