    What is that??? Picture included**

    I gave one of my girls a half bath bc she had poop all over her butt. I cut the feathers in the winter but it didn't help much. This is the first time I've done it so maybe this is normal but what is that white thing under her vent? Belly button? It's white, looks like a worm and has something...

    Safegaurd/Corid and egg safety

    I wormed my girls last week, it's been raining none stop all of June and poop was looking funny so I added safegaurd to their water as a precautionary. Two days later my 10wk old bantam wasn't eating and was acting lathargic and had some orange poop. I was worried about cocci so I started corid...

    Ventilation Help! **pictures included**

    will they turn on her?

    So this little girl was hatched at school and was born with what I now believe was a slipped tendon. I found out to late to straighten it from what I read, I'm new to chickens.

    Speckled Sussex vs Welsummer

    My friend gave me 2 babies that were supposed to be Speckled Sussex but they were mixed in with the welsummers so I think I got one of each. They were also supposed to be pullets from Tractor Supply but I think I have a Roo and I'm wondering who is who? They are about 5 weeks old.
