Hen not putting weight on leg - couple questions
I don’t have room IN the coop for the crate. But I can do supervised visits, good idea! I have not actually investigated inside the vent, but I am 99% sure she laid yesterday (unless someone else did double duty), and she is pooping (which I thought wouldn’t be the case if egg bound?).. she has...- Yogimama

Hen not putting weight on leg - couple questions
Thank you for the reassurance :) I had my boyfriend hold her so I could look over her foot/leg real well…nothing problematic to be seen at all. 🤷🏻♀️- Yogimama

Hen not putting weight on leg - couple questions
Advice needed 🙂 One sentence I never thought I’d say… Today, I fed an injured/sick chicken scrambled eggs in my bathroom. 🤣 First time chicken mama here. I’ll try to keep this brief.. This hen (Thelma) came in last night, after me discovering she was sleeping in the nesting box for the second...- Yogimama

Two Wyandotte with different markings..pullets? Please?
Hi! I’m back again, this time with Louise & Thelma 🤣 Louise has been slightly bigger (taller and wider) for a week or two (they were chicks bought together and seemed same age) & has darker feathers on her wings. I swear the posture is slightly different as well. (Edited to add: approx 8 weeks...- Yogimama

Pearl star? Cream legbar? Or!
So pretty! Not really....I went to TSC for a starlight green egger, was told they were gone. Was given a “pearl star” who lays blue/green eggs (but they really don’t) 🤣🤣 I don’t think she’s that either. I do know none of the other breeds there were what I wanted (although I can’t remember what...- Yogimama

6 weeks too early to confirm roo?
Curious...Can we know for sure roo on this one, yet? 6 weeks, silver laced Wyandotte. He loves to charge/chest bump the others. The comb has been red for about 2 weeks. I’m making an effort to hold/handle him every day, despite his efforts to evade that 🤣 because I have nothing against keeping...- Yogimama

Coop transition questions
I’m suspecting Bean is a roo as well. I posted all the chicks for a pullet vs roo guessing game in the appropriate board, but out of the 6, that’s the one I really think is a roo. I personally would love to have a roo (as long as he’s nice), but with such a small flock am hopeful I only have...- Yogimama

Coop transition questions
We did 8:30 the first night. Last night was later & less traumatic because they had already sleepy & huddled into a box I have in the run so they were much easier to move into the coop. Seems like 9 is better then 8. I’m putting a small light in the coop tonight to see if that helps them WANT to...- Yogimama
