    Flock is under the weather!

    I wormed them as I have never wormed them ever, yes I will check Olivia's crop this morning. Last year Olivia did have sour crop, yes I could bring Olivia's body if she does die to a lab. I her crop was empty this morning. When I let her out she was sneezing a couple times and has mucus around...

    Is my silkie a hen or a roo

    Hi, this is Hennefir, she was supposed to be a silkie pullet, but now I'm not so sure what she is. She gives off rooster vibes. I'm guessing she's around 19 weeks old She doesn't fight with my cockerell Sesame, and sounds like a pullet but her tail and feathers around her neck makes me...

    How to make a pen ready for youngsters...

    I would put a good layer of woodchips down on the ground if you are worried if there could be something in the ground. Once you routinely medicate them and they have enough space, they should be fine.

    Lethargic hen

    When I picked her up this morning her crop felt like putty, when I gently squished it it stayed in the same shape. The lumpy things were still there. She drank some electrolytes, I think it's impacted crop? What should I do to get rid of it?

    Lethargic hen

    Hi, I have a cream legbar x hen that has been very lethargic for the past few days. She has been eating and drinking. Yesterday, I picked her up and felt 2 semi-circular lumps in her crop, and her crop was a bit swollen. She doesn't have a sour crop, there was no sour smell. I don't really know...

    Can i hatch chicks with chickens?

    It would be nice to hatch chicks under a peahen, but what if I'm waiting for her to sit on the eggs and if she doesn't then all those eggs could be too old to hatch. How long should I wait for her to sit before just incubating them myself. Also what should I be routinely medicating for?

    Can i hatch chicks with chickens?

    Hi, I was thinking about hatching peachicks next year. This year, neither peahen went broody but laid about 9 eggs each. Next year, could I hatch the chicks under broody silkies and keep the hen and chicks on wire for the 3 months, or should I take them away once they hatch? Also, I have the...

    Oh yes I forgot to say, she's 16 weeks old so no eggs yet, they're on growers pellets and a few black soldier fly larvae. The poop had a bit of grass and some seedy bits.

    Ended Memories of Summer—2025

    My favourite memory of the summer was hatching eggs under a broody hen for the first time. Only one hatched and of course he's a cockerell. That one egg cost me over €1,000 but once Sesame is happy I'm happy. I got him 8 new ladies but sadly 3 died from an unknown illness but they are better...

    Sick chick

    I have them inside, as I think when they're outside, that's maybe how they got sick. When they were all sick, I dosed for coccidiocis no good results. They got worse. Then we wormed them a couple of days later , and they started getting better. They were a bit better before I wormed them. They...

    Sick chick

    My 14 week old buff orpington pullet keeps feeling poorly. One day she would be great then she would be lethargic and not eat but then the next day she would be fine again. Around 5 weeks ago her and 8 other chicks were sick. None were eating and had diarrhea and were very poorly. This resulted...
