After searching the forums for hours for symptoms similar to what my Easter Egger has, I am beyond confused. These symptoms seem pretty common with sick birds, but I have yet to read about a bird that has a combination of all of these (or lack of symptoms), yet still eats and drinks normally. I...

So after months of lurking the site and answering so many of my own questions using the search function on this sight, I thought it was about time I became a member of the community here. A little information about "us". My wife and I are both in the U.S. Coast Guard and currently...
