Hey guys,
I've been meaning to put this up for a while, but kept losing the timing. My light brahma chick has been sick for over two weeks now. I noticed the issue the first time I opened the coop door, and she was the last one left. She was stretching out her leg to try and get to the door...

Hey guys,
I have a light brahma hen who for the past couple of days started acting less energetic. There were no visible signs of injury at first and upon first inspection, I did not find anything unusual. No bugs. She would still walk around and join the other chickens, but there was a big...
Hey guys,
I'm at a loss here and was wondering if I may call on your help again. My top hen Coronette, a barred rock, has fairly recently started to gasp for breath. She does not appear depressed, nor sick. Looks as if there is absolutely nothing wrong with her, but after just a little...
Hey guys,
I've got a bit of an emergency on my hands. I'll try to make it as short as possible, but I really need help because I'm getting a little desperate.
This is Tsubasa. She's the runt of the flock. We started with 6 chickens, 1 died, so we added 2 more which were the Light...
So, after the death of our beloved Faveroll, Lark, we were down to 5 chicks. Due to melancholy, and the urging of my mom to have a lucky # of chickens (the number 7 is considered lucky for us), we decided to suck it up and get 2 more chicks.
We are now proud owners of 2 Light Brahma's...
Hello there,
I'm not sure what the issue is here, but I'm leaning more towards space since that's what is the problem. We have a small coop, which holds about 5 chickens now since 1 passed away. They have a second floor where we keep their food and water. Recently, as of the last couple of...
Hey guys,
I think I posted in the wrong forum about my chicken, Lark (put the thread into Chicken Behavior instead). I wanted to get some advice on her feeling quite sick.
She's exhibiting depression; drooping wings; barely any movement, and if there is movement, just a slow walk to get to...
Hey guys,
So I'm beginning to see some strange behavior with my largest Barred Rock, Coronnete. She's the largest of our flock of six, and when she walks, a lot of times she will keep her tail straight up, but then when she's not looking around or eating, her tail goes down and she holds it...
Hey guys,
So I wanted to post some pictures of our coop. It currently houses 6 chicks, and what you will notice is some wood frames in the background of the run that we are building for them. In the final phase, the coop itself will be inside the cage for extra safety. We did not actually...
Hey guys,
Just freshly joined here. I have a beautiful chicken (not sure on breed) who has been acting a little strange the past day or two.
Her name is Larkspur. Lately, whenever we are around and let the chicken out to forage, we find the Lark sometimes stands off to the side, and then...
Good afternoon ,
I am an owner of (currently) 6 beautiful chickies who slowly growing up. We currently house them in a medium sized, 2 floor chicken coop and are in the process of building a nice caged area for them to forage around and be safe. We bought them from Dodge Grain in Salem, NH...
