    Respiratory disease?

    I have a 15 week old silkie and I was about to move it outdoors for the first time with the rest of the flock a couple days ago when I noticed it was keeping its eyes shut and when it did open them they were a cloudy grayish color almost like he might be going blind. I quickly put him back into...

    Is this a male?

    This silkie "Buttercup" is 9 months old. I've always thought it to be female. This morning out of nowhere I heard crowing. I have three other bantams two old English which no doubt are girls and a silver seabright. I'm not sure if it was the silkie or the seabright crowing. The seabright has a...

    These blue/black splash ameracuanas are 7 weeks old. The one with the larger comb has thicker legs but they both look about the same body wise. Any ideas what they are?

    Help with chicken feet!

    I got my Houdan Beyonce', this past summer. When she came to me her feet looked really funny and scaly and I thought well maybe that was because she was a Houdan as I'm a new chicken owner and my other two didn't look like that. After reading I discovered that her feet looked funny because she...

    Pullets?

    These are 8 week olds hatched at the same time. The father was an Ameracuana roo and the mothers were buff orp, red star, and black australorp. I think they are all pullets but what do you think? Do the combs turn pink like that at this point? They have been yellow until recently. The...

    LICE!.....Aaahh!!!

    My sweet houdan, Beyonce' hasn't laid eggs in a couple weeks and she is starting to lose some feathers. I thought she was molting. I saw some white specks on her feathers last night but chalked it up to just being some bits of wood shavings from the bedding. Today when I picked her up to return...

    Early gender guess...

    I've got these two beauties. Both hatched from an Aracuana/Ameracuana roo and a possible Delaware or maybe a buff orp hen. They will be 4 wks on saturday. The white one to me seems rooish...larger than the other and I see a faint pinkness to the incoming comb. The other I'm not sure about yet. I...

    Yard spraying for insects

    My husband, without really thinking sprayed our yard with spectracide. He didn't think about the fact that we wanted to introduce them to the yard to free range since they are now big enough. He stayed away from the coop and run while spraying but I wonder now how long I have to wait before the...

    Nest box dilemma.

    My two sweeties Lulu & Gracie seem to think the nest boxes are beds. I know they could possibly start laying in the next month or so and I'm not sure how to stop this or even if it's absolutely necessary to stop it. I have a really small pre fab coop that I got at the feed store. The roosts are...
