    This hen is a Polish, so she's not really a layer so it may not be genetic. She has had a prolapsed vent however

    Egg Yolk Peritonitis

    Hello all! I have a hen who is acting strange. She looks as if she has to lay an egg, however there is no discharge and no egg stuck in her butt. She ruffles her feathers and is very slow. I think its EYP based on her poop (from the chicken chicks poop chart). It looks like milk with undigested...

    Prolapsed vent

    Probably. She stands really still and alone. I isolated her in hope that she'll calm down and let it heal

    Prolapsed vent

    I fixed my hens vent about a month ago and it keeps coming back. How do I prevent this? I would keep her isolated and get all the poop out and push it back in with hemorrhage cream and vetericyn. What am I doing wrong? Is this effective?

    Polish chicks

    I got baby chicks yesterday from my pet chicken. I only wanted three so I got the hatch of the day so that I could get what I want and give the rest to my uncle. I got two polish babies and have no idea what color they may be based on what they should look like on the website. [/IMG] thanks!

    Hatchery Help

    I ordered babies from my pet chicken and I was wondering time line wise when they are coming. Are they hatched Monday and shipped on Tuesday??? The website didn't give me a direct answer.

    Putting silkie with babies

    Well the babies are bantams like her so I was hoping that when there are more banties with her they might calm down. However is there anyway to stop this bullying?

    Putting silkie with babies

    What if I put her in when she was broody? She's a wimp and she's tiny, tiny. I feel terrible because she hides under the feeder and hisses at everyone. They pulled out her top black feathers and now she has gray under fluff left and barely a tail. I just hate to see her getting beat up.

    Putting silkie with babies

    I need help guys. So all my other chickens have been seriously beating up my little silkie. I am getting chicks next Monday and I was thinking that to protect her from further injury just putting her in the brooder with the babies. Is this a good idea? I know it's hard to discipline chickens but...

    I know I just thought that because of the different environment, she would act differently. So based on experience these hens keep bullying others?

    Aggressive hen

    Hi all, I have a silver laced Wyandotte that is the big, top hen. She has always been semi aggressive by keeping the five others in check. However lately she has been a bully. Other than her sidekick, a buff Orpington, all my other hens do not have feathers on their back and she is...
