Hi,
I have a serama who hatched 5 eggs two days ago. She is aroung with her babies (high in the pecking order so no one goes near her). No risk of predators too.
But - today i saw that she is busy in the coop dustbathing with her chicks, so I used the chance to give the other chickens some...
Hi!! Happy to share that she is laying again!!! She hasnt been laying for a year plus. Wow, a great recovery. Not only that, but she also became broody two days ago! I would like her to be a mother, but I think that in her condition, brooding can be a bit hard on her body and heart... maybe I...
Hi all, just a quick update ... over the past few montgs I have been giving her - once a week / two weeks : cayenne pepper, cinnamon, fish oil - omega 3, flax seeds, oregano, multi-vitamin for poultry, ans sometimes berries. I must say.. this week we definiteky notice a change - the comb is...
Hi, I would be happy if you can help me find out if this is a male or female. In one of the pictures you can also see one of the siblings but it's the same white chick in all the pictures. He/she is 3 weeks old. Thank you very much!!!!
Hi!

Thank you! Well, i have noticed that most of the time, he loses balance and falls. Or, he tries and tries with his tail and something doesnt work becsuse he doesnt get off the hen himself, just keeps moving his tail down to try again...
His comb is bright red, it means he is eating well and...
The male is 1.5 years old, female is 2 years old. Last year she hatched eggs and they were all fertile, but that was with another male which I had to sell because he was attacking the kids.
Seramas. I am concerned because I have seen the male trying to mate her but he doesnt 'touch the spot', he is not very good at balancing. The matings I saw were not successful. This is an egg from today....
Thank you!
Thank you for your reply! We do care a lot about them and it just feels bad to see that they hace health issues and we don't know how to help :( :(
I will try putting some in her water and from time to time I also give her some egg yolk - I use a dropper and I put a drop at the tip of her...
Yes - there was a long period when she laid eggs without shells every evening on the roost. It stopped after a while and she even hatched her own eggs, but for a few weeks/months it had been like this
