    Need help identifying this breed

    Thanks all - I can't get a better pic as this was sent to me from someone looking to rehome their chickens. I'm gonna assume Australorps - they look to be beautiful birds so it looks like I will be adding some silkies, barred rocks and Australorps to my family of chickens

    I have an emergency - please help

    That's the weird thing - none of them are acting sick. They are eating drinking and active. The only symptom is that they were ruffling their feathers kind of like dust bathing when we brought them home Saturday night. I thought they were just being chicks and playing. I hope all works out...
