    Hen trying to lay!

    My hen is trying to lay but it is taking her a long time and she is in a VERY hot section of the coop. I put some water with ice cubes in it beside her and a fan to blow on her. She usually lays quickly. While I was out of town one died and I think she got too hot and couldn't lay! Can I move...

    Smelly chicken

    Hi everyone! I have a houdan hen that is about 5 months. She acts perfectly fine and eats and drinks like she always has. I have noticed the last couple of days when I hold her that she has an awful smell and it seems like it's coming from her nose or mouth. She does have a little bit of food...

    Frizzle Gender

    I have 2 frizzles. Both are about 5 months old. The black one started crowing about a month or so ago. I haven't seen the white one crow. The black ones waddles grew quick but the white ones waddles just started growing recently. Now I'm wondering if I have 2 roosters. The were sparring a bit...
