HI,
Does any one know why one of my buff orpingtons this morning has a blueish purple skin color? head and feet skin is kind of blue and is breathing hard and not foraging with the others. she is drinking but not eating. this bird was fine yesterday. no bugs on it and in good phyical shape...
I was wondering, as a first time flock owner, I have processed my first meat chicken and cooked it within 30 minutes from death. why was the meat tough as leather and also had a strong tast of chicken feed?
