    4-year Old Blue Plymouth Hen depressed/low energy, changed color????

    Hi, everyone! To start this, I have Mereck's in my flock. From my reading this makes them a little more likely to succumb to other diseases, since it never really goes away.

    Hen has a weird bulge on her face, just noticed today

    This is Blueberry. She's a 3 year old blue Plymouth. She's acting okay, I watched her preening herself and she was alert and curious. I just noticed it so I haven't been able to check her eating/ drinking or her poop, but her behavior seems unbothered. She could have had it for a couple days...

They were JUST starting to really be "part of the flock" instead of just being their own mini flock (my flock has...

    My chickens are nearly grown and I still don't know what gender or breed they are. Help!

    I got these chickens as straight run chicks from another backyard chicken raiser. I was told that the black babies were Jersey Giant/Barred Rock mixes and the white one was a white Leghorn/buff Orpington mix. Two of them are definitely what I was told, but two of them are definitely NOT any of...
