    Hen maybe inhaled vomit

    Thank you so much for caring and trying to help our sweet little bird, she seemed to recover from the strange breathing, but was still losing her appetite more and going downhill yesterday. She did happily eat some cherries last night though. This morning however she was very clearly feeling...

    Hen maybe inhaled vomit

    Hi, we had suspected she was going downhill because of age, and the aspiration seemed to resolve but she was still going downhill yesterday (although she still ate some cherries last night, pretty happily), and this morning had no energy at all and we just stayed with her all day and she died...

    Hen maybe inhaled vomit

    Thank you so much! She has not laid eggs for probably at least four years. I'll return soon to describe what's going on with her otherwise, I have to run right now, but thank you thank you!

    Hen maybe inhaled vomit

    We have a Chicken who's ailing, she's 8 1/2. Not exactly sure why, but we've had her inside to convalesce. She's had some very smelly watery poo so I held her sideways at the sink to gently rinse off her vent and underbelly. I did not notice, as I was focusing on getting her clean, that she...

    Best life for give-away roosters? Help please

    I appreciate the viewpoint, knowing myself I don't think it will be harder to do so later. More, I'd really like to know if it's unkind to the roosters to give them away in batches of two at separate times. They will end up at the same place, but they may not know each other a couple months...

    Best life for give-away roosters? Help please

    Hi all, we got seven chicks from tractor supply, four of them ended up boys. We love them dearly (and would keep them if we hadn't already gotten in trouble with the city for it once before.) I had thought we would be able to keep them till at least four or five months, because that was the...

    Serious leg issue

    Hi, I'm so sorry your baby is having trouble, we had a beautiful blue backyard mix that had feet troubles. It was recommended to us to give her a little sandals by using that very gentle paper tape, medical that comes off easily, and walnut shell halves. It seem to work for a little bit, but...

    I Can’t Get No Satisfaction July Adopt-an-Egg Hatch-a-Long 🇬🇧

    Don't know if I'm doing this right, nor what any of this taking a number means, but I don't think anyone asked for 19 yet...?

    Buff Brahma Bantams (I think) 5 weeks old, are these hens?

    Hi, appparently I've revived an old post, while I'm here I thought I might ask for updates, what did they turn out to be?

    Buff Brahma Bantams (I think) 5 weeks old, are these hens?

    Makes sense... since I've already done it here I'll risk being annoying for one more day to ask what the OP ended up with...

    He was supposed to be Buff Orpington!

    He's an absolutely gorgeous rooster whatever the breed!

    Buff Brahma Bantams (I think) 5 weeks old, are these hens?

    I was actually thinking the one with the slightly pinkish comb (while unusual) is more likely a hen, feathering looks like it came in a little sooner on the head, and the comb is a little narrower. The other one looks like it's getting size more quickly and is slower feathering, which I think is...

    After a surprise Cockerel, could you guess the sex on my other "pullets?"

    It really is looking like it isn't it, we're pretty disappointed too, we would love to keep our roosters, but we have to (cross fingers) find a good home for them when they start crowing. We're not allowed to have them where we live. Enjoy him while you've got him, aren't they beautiful and...

    After a surprise Cockerel, could you guess the sex on my other "pullets?"

    I think there's a good chance your Orpington is a hen, she looks just like ours, but a couple weeks behind. The Easter Egger, I think it is a hen also. The white leghorn, I think you really cannot tell at this stage, both the sexes get huge combs, and our hen had a noticeable comb quite early...

    After a surprise Cockerel, could you guess the sex on my other "pullets?"

    Your mystery breed looks just like our (probably) cuckoo Maran, although yours doesn't have feathery feet, so I guess it's not very helpful. We're quite sure ours is a boy at this point, and at four weeks the comb looked just like yours.
