One of my Buff Orpington hens has had this protuberance on her butt for months:
I just de-pooped her,and this is the best shot I could get. She eats and drinks normally, acts normal, lays a normal egg almost every day. I call her Miss Poopy Butt for obvious reasons. It doesn't seem to bother...
My husband is building my coop this weekend as a late Mother's day present. I've heard much about a local chicken "swap" in the Lakeland/Bartow area, and is wondering if anyone can tell me about it. I'm looking for 3-4 chicks/hens (want to avoid roosters) in the next few weeks. Any help?
