    Free STUNNING rooster

    Charlie is a year and a half year old rooster that needs a new home. He is a fantastic rooster - generous to his hens, very protective, incredibly diligent about keeping everyone in line. He was adopted as a hen and was a bit of a surprise! He has been with us for a year now, but the...

    Raspy crow

    I've got a hen that is 100% (eating, running, frisky as ever) but this morning she started with a raspy crow. She doesn't have labored breathing or anything, it's just when she crows it sounds very raspy for her. Should I be worried if there are really no other symptoms than this? Can a hen...

    Listless chicken

    I have a 2.5 year old golden comet who has always been a little spitfire. Lately she had been a little listless. She sometimes will stand there puffed up and start to close her eyes. This has happened in the past few days. She has always had an issue with aessy butt. Ever since she started...

    Worming clarification

    I have 3 year old chickens and I think I need to do a round of worming. I have not necessarily seen hard evidence of worms, but there are symptoms such as lethargy that I feel it would be safer to do it rather than not. I have spent quite some time researching the forums on here regarding the...

    Chicken gurgling

    I have my sweetest Sussex making funny noises she never used to. She kinda gurgles when she breathes. There are no other signs of illness - no runny nose no sneezing. She eats fine. Runs around. I have 5 other hens. Should I jump to quarantine and antibiotics?

    Sex of Egyptian fayoumis

    So this is my 21 week old pullet Booker. I have been thinking she is a she and will start laying soon. Instead she is waking up the neighborhood and keeping them up all morning. It's not crowing but incredibly loud incessant chatter I think. Maybe HE is trying to crow? No eggs yet. Anyone have...

    Red rash on belly

    I have a golden comet that I happened to grab out of my garden bed yesterday and noticed she has a big red rash over one half of her belly with some feathers missing. Is this a sign of anything? She is acting perfectly fine and getting into trouble as usual. Maybe she angered the wrong bee or...

    Egyptian Fayoumis

    Does anyone else out there have an Egyptian Fayoumis? I have a 19-20 week old one named Booker that I assume is a girl - it hasn't crowed yet! She is the funniest chick with such a strong personality. She runs faster than a cheetah, jumps to the top of the coop with ease, and loves to jump...

    Pullet won't open eye

    I have a 20 week old pulley that has been super healthy up until a week ago. The past week she has not opened one eye and has been very lethargic - lays down in the middle of the yard a lot while everyone else is foraging. I've looked for other signs of infection- there is no discharge and her...

    I have 4 16 week old chicks. My speckled sussex started to start something new yesterday. She will put one leg up and freeze, as if to scratch, but looking more like she's having a seizure. She'll try to get the other leg up there, too, causing her to fall down in a screaming pile of chicken...
