    For real? I was told it was a Red Star or a Red Comet which were both sex linked. But I don't know much about chickens :)

    Help!! Marek's Disease??

    It's been really stable...maybe better but definitely not worse. We weren't even worried about her since she gets along so well, but then I was reading some other threads and I started to panic. I emailed to inquire about the flock they came from.

    Help!! Marek's Disease??

    We can check again for injury tonight or tomorrow, but we haven't felt anything weird in the past. This hen was not vaccinated, that I know of. She is one of the first 8 chicks we received from a local woman who hatched them. 2-3 weeks later we received 22 more from her, that were hatchery...

    Anyone want to take a look at my 11-12wk old hen and tell me what you think? She started showing signs of this at 4-5wks. She eats, drinks, plays well with others. She just doesn't use her one leg. At first we thought maybe she dislocated her leg, but we are new to this and pretty naive. I'm...

    Help!! Marek's Disease??

    Can you please check out this video of my hen? She's 11-12 wks old and started showing signs of this at maybe 4-5 weeks. She eats, drinks and gets along well. She is only slightly smaller than the others her age. At first we thought she dislocated her leg hopping up/down to the roost in the...

    Mine are 3 and 5 and have karate 4 times a week! At least it tires them out. And we don't really have to go all 4 days, but we need to go at least 2 to be worth the money we spend on it. :) Forget chicken. What about HAM pot pie? So weird. And Ham BBQ? And chicken and WAFFLES?

    Wow - it's been busy here! My name is my maiden name backwards and I have been using it online since 1992. Personally, I am vintage '74.

    Bear update: Apparently our friendly neighborhood bear has been causing trouble all over the mountain and was caught and relocated at some point this week. Good news for me and my chickens. Hopefully he didn't leave any friends behind.

    I didn't even think about insurance. I'll look into it, at least for the future. No blood, that we could see. S/he was HUGE. We did see him. I would guess he was close to 500lbs. We would only shoot to scare, not to hurt the bear. Luckily (maybe?), the head guy in charge of bears in PA is our...
