    I think its a Roo

    The previous owner told me I had an Easter Egger, not sure about this but what I need is confirmation on the sex. I have a suspicion it may be a Roo. Please comment. I can return it if not a pullet. It has been the most flighty chicken ever. Afraid of it's own shadow. My experience has...

    Soft shell and an Eater

    Thanks, I would try to go out before they left the roost and see who was where. as of today 10/24/25 I do not have this problem. However, my suspect has laid an egg with a wavy shell, and as of today, there are very large eggs with a heavier liquid on them. So, Im getting eggs, and she may or...

    Soft shell and an Eater

    Thank you for the reply. She is about 3 years old. by todays date, 10/24/25, I don't see anymore soft eggs in the area. My previous cullings were sickness, one from a young pullet and me a newbie; the other two just didn't eat anymore and were suffering. I had it in me to cull, couldn't do a...

    Soft shell and an Eater

    Hello BYC enthusiasts! I was wondering if anyone had any tricks to find out who in the flock, (I only have 6 hens) is laying softies and I believe eats some of it. I saw the possible culprit sitting in the nest box, but when I go out about an hour later, she has left an empty nest and just...

    Don't know if it is sour crop vs eggbound

    Thank you for your kind response and information. I went out not knowing what to expect today, and saw a very soft eggshell shed. She is happily walking around, scratching with the girls and EATING!!! So, we keep learning and this is my best source! thanks!

    Don't know if it is sour crop vs eggbound

    I have a 18 month hen who has not eaten, crop is soft and 'full', poop really loose, and somewhat lethargic. Administered Nutri-Drench. So, I expected her to be gone, but she's here this morning 7/18/25. I had experience with water belly and took a 16g needle to her. Egg yolk came dripping...

    Ascites in a 7 month pullet

    Hello there! I have an update: since deworming and back with flock (a little awkward reintroduction but interesting to me, stares and such!) she has done well. I keep feeling for water belly, but she is fine so far, emptying crop etc. I will continue to check of course, repeat aspiration if...

    Mystery illness, few symptoms

    These chickens sure keep us learning. Don't know if I was lucky or ignorant, but my very first flock had no problems!!!! It is sad to put down a hen! I have to bury mine, can't eat them since they all have names and cute personalities. I guess if I had grown up on a farm.......

    Mystery illness, few symptoms

    is the open beak breathing forced like her head moves forward to breathe? Any info on that green poop? If she free ranges its probably her eating the tips of grass etc. I'm dealing with a young pullet with ascites, very sad because from what I have been reading, she will not live a long life...

    Ascites in a 7 month pullet

    Thanks Wyorp Rock, I only saw the worms after I had separated her from the flock. They appear only one at a time, to date only have seen three. I am using paper towels so I can monitor her feces. Mostly they are well formed with urates, but then the loose brown smelly stuff. I used...
