    Chalky poo and wheezing?

    My rooster has started wheezing and has white chalky poo around his vent- other than that his behavior is normal but I'm very concerned. I've isolated him just incase (he is not pleased) does anyone know what might be the cause of this and if there's anything I can do to remedy it?

    Separating breeds?

    Perhaps not breeds so much- but standard vs bantam. I currently have some Welsummers, Ameraucanas, and Silkies living in the same coop. I shut them in at night, and during the day they free range around the property (about two acres). I am going to be adding some more birds to my flock-...

    Chicken ramp help!

    My family and I have finally finished building the coop for the chickens (due to arrive in about a week now! The brooder's ready to go too-! We're all so excited!). However, upon seeing how narrow and steep the incline was of the ramp from the coop (above) to the run (below) I'm sort of...

    After months of reading BYC's info I finally registered here!

    Hello! I'm brand new to this whole chicken thing (getting my first chicks in the mail in about two weeks! I am beyond excited!) and with the frequency I've found myself browsing this site I thought I may as well register. I'm sure I'll have questions in the weeks/months ahead! I'm in...
