    Is this normal?

    (didn't know what subforum to put this in sorry) we have a chicken and I'm constantly arguing on wether this is normal or not and how to proceed but I'm sure their feathers are not supposed to be like this no? (Cochin bantam)

    Odd behavior just started

    This just started happening not too long ago this RIR doesn't attack the other hen but just constantly lays on her even when there are other nesting boxes open, we remove the RIR but she goes back and does the same thing. Any thoughts?

    Chicken just died

    So around 5 in the morning my bantam was heard fluttering in her cage (quarantined) and then found motionless.

    Just curious

    I have 5 RIR and for some reason they just started randomly coming out of their coup recently, they usually go in at 7 pst and then around 5 or 6 pst AM but they're wandering around 1 and 2 am now... Just checking if this is normal or should I do something

    Which one For (trichomonosis)

    I'm trying to find a medicine that will not affect the eggs and I can't find the info of the other 2 (carnidazole and dimetridazole). I know metronidazole affects the eggs which is why I'm trying to see if the other 2 are good to use if still trying to use the eggs.

    Yeah I'm surprised the cross beak hasn't been any real issue for her. Thanks anyways for your input.

    I'm at a loss

    She does have bumblefoot on the left foot, I haven't personally seen her laying eggs at all so hard to say, no signs of a egg peaking from the very and I know it's normal but it just seems off, eats a lot and drinks water. Feathers just look less lively from the other hens.
