    Pale face and tail down

    I have an 11 month old silver laced Wyandotte. Her face looks very pale compared to her sisters and she's keeping her tail down. I noticed tons of feathers in the coop this morning and haven't gotten any eggs in a week. Could she be molting? Haven't gotten eggs from any of them (3) but the...

    Just went and took care of my hens. I always forget to grab the eggs so today I got 12, 1 had a crack so I tossed it into the field. Brought the other 11 in and made sure they weren't cracked. Noticed two were so I cracked them for my dogs.. the first one I cracked concerned me a bit. Want to...

    Long term affects from sinus infection???

    My hen had a sinus infection that we noticed August 15. Got antibiotics and the swelling went down. She's been on them off and on since then. After about 3 weeks she started eating in her own again. She lost a bunch of weight and went down to about 2 lbs (started as a big fat healthy bird) she...

    Sick silkie.

    I've got a silkie, his name is red. Yesterday I noticed him laying in the grass while everyone was trampling over him and he didn't move. Figured he was dead so grabbed him but he wasn't! Now I have no idea what's wrong! He was limp but responsive. I gave him lots of water and he was happy to...

    What could this be from?

    I just picked up 4 hens today and this is the back of ones head. We have no idea what it could be from. They all get along great and seem to be friends. My husband said maybe from "doing the deed". He grew up with ducks and says with them the male sometimes grabs the back of the females head.

    What breeds are best to add to my flock??

    Hi! I currently have 2 RIR (rooster and hen), 2 silver laced wyandottes (hens), 1 silkie(not sure on gender) and 2 Cornish x meat birds.
