    RIP Guaiguai

    I'm heartbroken to say that a predator killed one of our hens today, our one and only barred rock hen. RIP Guaiguai (chinese name meaning obedient and clever, which she totally was). You were one of our favorites, and one of the first chicks we ever got. I remember when you were just a wee...

    Red berries edible?

    Hi BYC, I noticed one of my hens jumping and pecking these berries off a bush. I stopped her from continuing, but they're free range and I want to know if these berries are edible: Thanks BYC.

    Overly trimmed beak!! Bloody!!

    Hey BYC, One of our hens had a top beak that was starting to split, so my mom trimmed it with some scissors. That part went fine. However, because the lower beak was much shorter than the upper beak, my mom thought she would trim it down with scissors too. But then it started bleeding like...

    San Dimas city ordinance - less than one week!! save my hens!!

    We just got a letter from the Inland Humane Society and SPCA saying that our residence is not zoned for chickens and that we have 1 week to get rid of them. The letter itself was really confusing because it referred to the rooster and the chickens separately, and while it said that chickens were...

    Hello BYCers, My mother is worried about our rooster, who has white spots on his earlobes and some black spotting on his comb. Picture is attached. Does anyone know what it is, and if it's something bad, what we can do to treat it? This is one of our hens in comparison.

    Chicken unsteady on feet, collapses and sits a lot

    Hello everyone, I have a chicken that otherwise looks healthy, bright eyed, eating with an appetite, but for some reason can't seem to stay on its feet. The chicken will get up to hobble a few steps in order to get to food or water, but then seems to have trouble supporting its weight while...
