    Injured 3 Week Old Chick

    It could be an abscess but it wasn’t this large the other day, which makes me think swelling. She does walk on it but lays down a lot. She’s never fallen or been given the opportunity to fall from anything. I may have to take her to the vet if I can find one near me that treat’s chickens😳

    Injured 3 Week Old Chick

    This poor baby has been limping for maybe a week. I thought one of the other chicks may have just stepped on her leg wrong and it would get better. But I looked at her today and seen her leg is swollen and red! I’ve never had a chick do this before and have no idea what it could be. Any advice...

    Not sure what breed she is!

    I had a feeling it was a Polish. Someone said it was a Silkie, but none of its features lined up with one based on what I’ve read. Thanks!!

    Not sure what breed she is!

    My brother-in-law picked me up 6 assortment of pullets from Rural King and I’ve never had a chick that looks like this. Polish or Silkie maybe?

    The crowing FEMALE sebright

    That’s kind of what I’m thinking, that he may be mixed with something else. Thank you! 🙂

    The crowing FEMALE sebright

    My golden Sebright has the sickle-shaped tail feathers. That’s the only reason I finally figured out it wasn’t a crowing hen😂

    The crowing FEMALE sebright

    So I have a Golden Sebright that I thought was a female also and then HE started crowing and and few weeks later his tail feathers started getting longer and asked on here about it also. But looks from the picture your pullet is a cockerel.

    What breed is he?

    So I got two Bantam chicks in March and I knew they were straight run, that’s not the problem! He just now started crowing about 3 weeks after the other bantam Roo I have, has a small comb and so I actually thought he was a she until the other day:eek:. He’s quite larger than the other and with...

    Anyone expecting chicks this week?

    My babies hatched the 24th, 25th and 26th. It was my first time hatching and all hatched, so I was pretty excited! They are cute little balls of fluff! :jumpy

    Opening incubator during hatch?

    So during hatching it’s okay to add water to the sponge I have in there to increase humidity. I’ve had a time keeping my humidity up during this. I have two chicks that hatched today and one has pipped early this morning and has made no more progress so I’m getting concerned with it. But I...

    First time hatching advice

    I’m on day 21 I had two pipping when I woke up this morning and humidity was in 55%. Should I open it and add some water while they are pipping?

    1st time Hatcher!

    I’m on day 18 of my hatching process, so I will be putting on lockdown. It says not to open during lockdown but if the humidity goes down can I open it quickly to add more water??

    1st time Hatcher!

    Yeah my hens wouldn’t lay on them. They’re either lazy or spoiled lol. I’m hoping mine hatch our power was out for 5 hours today so I wrapped the incubator in a blanket and prayed for the best.

    1st time Hatcher!

    Thank you! I do see it move. I guess they shift depending on what side the egg is laying on. That would make sense lol.
