    urgent response needed mom rejected baby?

    Shoot. I took the baby and wrapped it in a towel. It was getting cold. As soon as i did that she and her three other babies hopp3d up and she broke the extra non viable eggs that ended up under her. Did i just kill this baby?

    My beautiful roo has died

    I spent the day away from home yesterday. When we got back the chickens had put themselves up. The rooster was huddled on the floor with his butt hanging part way out the door. He did not move when I picked him up and put him on the roost with the others. I checked him again in the night and he...

    I am convinced this is a quiet roo....

    I have had roos before and it was painfully obvious before now so he threw me off being such a late bloomer. And he did have a couple of curled tail feathers.....a few weeks ago. The girls must have picked them. How sad....could he get them back?

    First egg and it has been pecked!!

    No. I haven't. But the first egg I found had a solid peck....seems odd to me. Maybe I am too paranoid.

    First egg and it has been pecked!!

    So I have been waiting so long to find an egg....the girls have been squatting and singing with red combs and wattles for weeks. It was taking longer than my last batch by quite a bit and I began to suspect an egg eater because I just felt so baffled. Well this morning they were all caring on...
