We got a batch of 25 chicks shipped to us from Murray McMurray hatchery two weeks ago, when they arrived, one of the chicks (we thought) had splayed leg. We tried the hobble and everything, and she was put in a separate brooder from the other chicks. (Her leg would shake and the the other chicks...

I have a Silver Spangled Hamburg hen who has started acting not like herself, and it has gotten a lot worse over the course of the day. This morning when I let all of my chickens out, I noticed that she (who is normally very hyper and extremely flighty) was walking very slowly, and just standing...

Our dog got in the chicken run today, 11 out of 14 chickens are accounted for, 2 dead, and at least 2 injured. One of my austrolorps has a wry neck, and I can't see any wounds, but I will re check. Another chicken I still need to bring inside and take care of. The rest probably flew into the...

Hello! So, we found a duckling (I think😅) someone dumped in a muddy pond at a park. We know the poor thing was dumped because we've been there the last few days and no ducklings, or anything. There are ducks and geese in the pond, but none have been sitting, or have babies the last three days...

Hello, my 2 yr old RIR chicken is being confusing. Do you think you could help me figure out if its a hen or roo? Thanks so much.
I originally thought hen, but as it got older.... Well, the comb changed and so did its voice.

So Henny Penny, my light Brahma hen has is pretty much recovered from a wing amputation. (several threads about her already) she laid an egg today, the first time since she was injured. (She is four years old) I cracked it into a cup, because I was curious if there was anything strange about...

Hello all,
This is yes, yet another thread about my hen Henny penny. After a successful amputation surgery and recovery, I was wondering how/if/when to take stiches out, they appear to be made of plastic, kinda like fishing line.
Is it safe to just let her(my hen) pull them out herself? For...
