    Pale, yellowish comb & wattles- any ideas?

    Hello, I have a 10 month old Welsummer who's comb & wattles have gone pale with a yellowish tint over the last few weeks. She is eating, but not as aggressively as the others. She is pooping, but not large poos. She seems to be moving a little slower than the others, she was the last one out...

    Fresh, used Coop litter/shavings straight into garden???

    Hi, I've been reading the threads on this topic but cant seem to find an answer... I have been attempting the deep litter method so far this winter. Its been cold and we've had a lot of snow, so I thought it was a good idea to help keep the coop warm. But Im thinking I'd like to empty the coop...

    Broody at 26 weeks? Layed an egg but not pooping?

    Hi, I have a very small Silky who is 26 weeks old ( so about 6.5 months) she has been laying for about 4 weeks. She seems to be broody, but I'm not 100% sure. I have ruled out everything else pretty much. I have had her in the house for the last 24 hours under watch, she's been eating and she...

    Very hard, plastic sounding eggs! What should I do? PICS!

    Hi- Untill today, in the four weeks that my 25 wk old hens have been laying I have had only 2 odd eggs. They were soft shelled. One soft shell was yesterday and it wasnt in a nest box so I assumed that I had a new layer. I have 18 hens 5 have been laying. I worried about starting the entire...

    Worried- opinions needed please.

    One of my 23 week old Welsummers seems a bit off today. First thing I noticed was that she was walking slower than normal. I have kept an eye on her all day and she does seem to be somewhat lethargic. She stands with her eyes closed sometimes, other times she will settle and sit down. I don't...

    Hoarse sounding chicken

    Hi everyone. Today I noticed that one of my 24 wk old Buff Chantecler hens sounded a bit hoarse & gravely when she spoke. I spend a lot of time w/ my hens and have never heard this before. BUT she's not a "talker" so I wondered if this wasnt her normal sound. I also noticed the other day that...

Switched to avoind all that dusty crumble waist but I see more pellets all over the ground that are waisted... off to...
