    Can somebody help me determine why my chickens are eating each others feathers?

    That's a good point! I normally buy the Manna Pro brand, but maybe I should try switching, as the shell is quite coarse. It never even crossed my mind that it would be too coarse for them to eat...thank you

    Can somebody help me determine why my chickens are eating each others feathers?

    Hi everyone, This whole feather eating thing has been an ongoing problem for a while now. I've tried a lot of different thing - changing their diet, increasing the coop size, etc. - but so far, none of these things have helped. Currently, I mix my own chicken feed. This is what I put into...

    I need some input...? Really stressing out!

    Thanks for all of the advice guys. I tried holding them up to a light but I'm not very experienced with the whole candling thing, so I wasn't really sure what to look for As far as I could tell, there were no living chicks, so I ended up tossing them this afternoon

    I need some input...? Really stressing out!

    Hi everyone :) So 22 days ago, I started two hatches. I put seven Wheaten Ameraucana eggs in my first Mini Eco incubator, and six Silkie eggs in the other Mini Eco. Both sets were due to hatch Friday. Sometime Thursday night, one of the Ameraucanas hatched! It was a completely normal hatch...pip...

    Newly hatched chick (helped out of shell) is a little weak and shaky...is there anything I can do?

    You're right - or else we wouldn't be so inclined to keep hatching them haha And I love the fact that they are so trusting, especially the sickly or "special needs" ones!

    Newly hatched chick (helped out of shell) is a little weak and shaky...is there anything I can do?

    Thanks for the reply! There has been such a huge improvement in the little chick since yesterday, she is barely shaking anymore, and she's been running around with the others. Plus her back is almost completely covered in fuzz. You'd almost never know what she went through by just looking at her!
