    Sick silkie

    My one year old silkie hen is sick, I think. She's eating, drinking and acting fine. No lethargy or droopiness. She is however breathing very loudly. Kind of a "popping" noise when she breaths. Sounds like she's congested. She's very loud when she breaths. I first noticed it about a week ago. I...

    What's wrong with his feet?

    I have a standard Cochin Rooster who is approx. a yr old. I've had him since he was a few months old. He is in a pen with ten other chickens, none of which are presenting with the same problem. I noticed he was starting to limp a little. I checked his feet and the only thing I saw that was...

    Is it too soonto place chicks under broody?

    I have two broody hens. One was sitting on four eggs for the last week. Today my sons got into the coop and removed the eggs and broke them. The chicks were growing. It was sad. I was wondering if I can slip some chicks under her instead of taking the chance that she would abandon the nest...
