    Hard lump in abdomen on 2 day old chick

    I would separate her if the other birds are picking at it because then you’ll have a dead bird by morning or so

    Hard lump in abdomen on 2 day old chick

    It’s the umbilicus and don’t pick at it. You can gently clean it. Put some salve on it and keep the little chick warm and hydrated with a little bit of chick food or even scrambled egg.

    Places where roosters can crow

    I live outside of town, on a metes and bounds property. I have 2 roosters and my neighbor has one that I slipped into her coop when she wasn't looking.🫣 In my area of Michigan, that is about the best scenario for a rooster. I do have varmints and I have a small 410g shot gun for those pests. 😏

    I bought several chickens from TSC. It’s was like a blue light special🥹. They are all doing well. But for life of me, I have no idea the breed. If you need more pics, I’ll run right out and get more pics. Thank you all!

    Puking 1 week old duckling....ideas???

    Well I'm finally on here. It's been a long busy day. My husband called me around 1:00 today to say he found our new little girl dead. The other 13 are doing fine. So thank you all for your ideas. I believe she had a congenital deformation. Thank you all again.

    I took a video for you all. The black ones are the girls I bought for myself. Perkins are for my kids. So looking at the blacks, you will see the difference in the one in question.

    Puking 1 week old duckling....ideas???

    ok so I purchased a dozen ducks from a hatchery. I buy from them every year, and I have contacted them about this. But they are at a loss as I am. This duckling is a Black Swedish duck. She is one week old now and has been puking up clear mucus when she is picked up. She is definitely failing...
