    My polish hen has been sick for a few days. She's going on 48 hours of antibiotics, she's coughing up a slimey red liquid that looks like blood. What do I do? I cannot get out, we are snowed in with almost 2 feet of snow. She's in a dog crate in the house with two other chickens that got sick...

    I miss this beautiful girl so much. Idk what happened to her. She started to just fall over backwards... My daddy had to end her suffering, thank goodness for him! I'm trying to find more but it's hard. She was a random feed store find.

    Not "new" but kind of new....

    I've had chickens for a few years now but I relocated. My mom kept the chickens so I'm starting over. Are there any breeders in West Virginia or near by? Thanks! Heather

    West Virginia or nearby

    Hi, I'm looking to start a new flock. I'm not really picky about what we get. I'd like Brahma, silkies, frizzie, and polish but really I just miss having chickens. I'm willing to travel a little ways and meet somewhere. Thanks! Heather

    Help! My Bantam hen keeps falling over....

    My little bantam hen started falling over yesterday. She doesn't completely go over but she'll almost fall over backwards or to the sides. I have never seen her do this before... I seperated her out from the other hens. She is molting but last time she molted she didn't do this. She is still...

    Don't know where else to post this question... Kind of fits into the gender place but not really?

    Anyways, I heard that if you hold a chicken upside down when it's a little older that if it fights you its a rooster, and if it doesn't it's a hen. Is this true? I tried this on a few of my chickens and the ones who I think are roosters fought and the ones I think are hens did not... They are...

    Light Braham Rooster? Show Quality?

    Below are two different chickens. Happy (named after Happy Feet because he/she is ALWAYS happy and curious) and Faline (from Bambi because she's so sweet and beautiful). I believe Happy is a rooster but I'm not sure what a Light Brahma would look like as a cockerel (can't find any pictures)...

    Why does she have swollen feet?

    what causes this? I don't think it's bumblefoot because there is noting on the bottom of her feet. There are purple spots on one foot and they are soft feeling. Her toes kind of curl when she tries to walk or stand... Plus she has a hard mass on the back of her head

    I have no idea what is wrong! Swollen feet, head mass..

    This chick is about 2-3 weeks old and just isn't acting normal. She isn't really interested in eating, but eats enough to survive. Her feet are swollen and funny looking. She has a weird spot on the back of her head (below are pictures I tried to take sorry they aren't very good). She's alot...

    Rooster?? Or just fast maturing??

    This is a Barred Rock and I'm thinking "she" is going to be a "he"? The comb is coming in faster than the others, its legs are all white, spot on its head is not as around as everyone elses, it is bigger and maturing faster than the rest. Or could it just be that it's maturing fast? It is about...

    New to chicken lingo...

    What are red/black sex links?? What is the difference between a Bantam and a Brahma? From my understanding a Bantam has many colors/breeds that come with it and Bantam itself is not really one single breed?? I am very new to this and had to google what "EE" meant Thank you!

    What Breed Is My Chick??

    This chick is about a week old. We ordered barred rocks, buff rocks, light brahamas, and rhode island reds. It doesn't have the same markings as the barred rocks, barely any white on the back side, none on his chest, face, and no real white spot on top of its head. Its alot smaller than the...
