    Help Identify What Attacked my Flock

    Some of the wounds he had were already infested with bugs by the time he made it home so we decided to put him down rather than have him continue to suffer with a tiny chance of surviving. RIP Chief ❤ I appreciate all the lovely comments, he was indeed a very special guy, it's a shame he's gone...

    When should I help this malpositioned chick?

    Help sexing 2 chickens

    They originally looked like hens to me but I'm starting to think they are cockerels. They've recently started crowing as well, however they started 2 months after the other cockerels of the same age and not until right after the other cockerels were slaughtered. I'm really confused, any help is...

    Chicken has Bad Wound

    One of our hens has a pretty nasty looking wound and I'm wondering how I should be caring for it. This is our first year having chickens so we may have made mistakes. I attached a photo for reference. We have 6 hens and 1 rooster. They are 7 months old. We weren't told the breed when we got them...
