    Hen died from sudden prolapse—what caused this?

    My beautiful young Olive Egger hen, Blackberry, died suddenly today. Unfortunately, I only discovered her prolapse about 30 minutes before she passed. I do not know if her flockmates caused it to worsen—I did not realize that was her issue until I went out this evening, saw her on the ground...

    UPDATE—we decided to keep him. He’s doing better with the Silkies, so hopefully all will continue to go smoothly.

    Home needed in East Tennessee (Tri-Cities area): Thistle is a handsome 6-month old Easter Egger in search of a new flock. He was sold as a pullet by TSC and is too big for my bantam hens (they are starting to hide instead of forage💔). ✅ Good with people🐓🕺👯‍♀️ ✅ Excellent at alerting flock to...

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    At 15 weeks, Bramble has an interesting white collar around her neck. She’s very flighty and hasn’t let me handle her much—very similar to my other Easter Eggers.

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    At 15 weeks old, Thistle is still behaving respectfully to humans and learning how to be respectful with hens (I have 24 hens between him and a 2nd (bantam) rooster. The older hens are between ages 1-7 years old (and some are bigger than him still, as large breeds—this means he can still get his...

    Month-old chick suddenly has weak legs and keeps laying down—what could be wrong?

    The results were still quite vague, imo, but basically the results said, “Likely Marek’s.” 😔 I wish I had better news for your chickies. However, I have not had any more chickens with similar issues since, despite adding unvaccinated chicks in the past year (hatched at home).

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    Pic from last week. Yesterday I saw him take advantage of either his adoptive mom or aunt…🤮🤮🤮 The bigger hens chase him away. She also was pissed. I know this is natural….but gross!!

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    Sold as an “Americana” (aka EE), but could be anything, since she was from TSC 😂

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    Here’s a photo of a Whiting True Blue from Dragonfly Farms…Obviously EEs can be any color combination, but I feel like I haven’t seen this blue undertone on EEs I’ve had.

    TSC Olive Eggers & “Americanas”—any idea what color these chicks will be?

    So here’s a random thought—I was googling “Whiting True Blue roosters.” I’m still trying to gaze into my crystal ball with these three.🤣 It’s fun for me—just trying to guess what mixes went into Townline Hatchery’s “Americanas.” At first, TSC said the shipment was from Meyer Hatchery, but they...

    I bought this chick as a “premium pullet” at TSC, but Thistle is giving me rooster vibes. S/he is 7 weeks old tomorrow.
