    Bachelor flock issues

    I have a beautiful bachelor flock of salmon Faverolles (and a few odd balls 🤪) I got 3 boys together and few months ago and oddly there was fighting between two of the 3 I got but separated the bully for a day and they worked it out. A few weeks later the lady I got the 3 from says “I have...

    Fowl pox recovery

    Hi, I have a bird with fowl pox. It’s horrible. The bird got the fowl pox after an injury from another rooster. I didn’t realize what it was until late and then removed from the flock. He’s still eating, I’ve just been keeping him in a cage on my porch. Warm and dry. My question is, if he...

    Rooster breed?

    My husband found this guy at his work. I thought he was a blue copper maran rooster but I now think he’s a mix because he doesn’t have feathers on his legs. And they are blue. He needs a home and I’d like to give people a more correct breed. Thank you!

    Curled D’Uccle feet

    I got a little porcelain D’Uccle from the feed store and I’ve had I’m assuming her for a couple weeks and just realized that her third toe on both feet curls in oddly. It’s not stiff or anything. In the past, I’ve had tiny chicks I have used cardboard to the feet. And I’m wondering if I should...

    How old are my bantams?

    Is it too early to sex these bantams. I have figured out the breeds but I’m in doubt that combs won’t start popping up soon. I have 5 total. The first picture is a straight comb golden sebright who is looking roo-ish. The others I think pullets. Probably around 4 weeks? So may be too soon to...

    Feed store bantam breed?

    Hey, I’m wondering if this looks like a Mille fluer cochin or D’Uccle? Got it today and the black on the head is throwing me off. Seems too light to be a D’Uccle. What does the BYC community think? Thanks!

    Coccidiosis treatment and fluid resuscitation help!

    Throwing the kitchen sink at my bantam salmon Faverolles. I admit I probably let it go to far because my birds don’t usually show bloody poop. I noticed 6 days ago after I had separated my cockerel and pullet on my porch with a cozy coop heater that although I had been treating for coccidiosis...

    Frizzle bantam got moldy feed. Botulism?

    My sweet nugget didn’t go to the roost tonight and seems uncoordinated. I did have some food get wet and she’s always my little weakling. I have colloidal silver from yrs ago. Does it go bad? Or should I give epson salt? She’s moving around ok for the most part so hopefully I caught it early

    2 month button quail colors/sexing

    I got three buttons that I was curious if you can tell the sex. One I believe is a red breasted female. The other two look like silver? Or silver mix? I’ve heard what I believe is the female sound. But I heard you can sex them at a young age.

    Terrified call ducks

    I got two female call ducks from a horrible situation. They are terrified and growth stunted. I have been putting poultry cell in their water, offering mealworms, eggs, oats, peas. They were in a plastic tub for the first 3 days and now I have them in a 4x2 brooder. They won’t come out and eat...

    Sexing pastel call duck

    Hi! I’m fairly convinced my two call ducks are males. They are super quiet so that’s how I made my determination. One is blue pastel, the bill is turning green (7 weeks) but the pastel is orange billed. These pictures are at 7 weeks or so thx

    Small yellow duck with black spot

    What breed could it be? Pekin is the obvious guess but it’s 8+ days old and still has a tiny little beak. Possibly crested because it has a tiny bump on its head and it has a little black fluff on the back. Tractor supply special. Possibly crested? Ancona, or Muscovy? It’s just so special I want...

    Lipoma/dump on duckling head and breed?

    Tsc specials I got today. Never had ducks so I need advice. The little yellow looks like a Pekin but has a bump/ lipoma on top of its head. Seems a little weak but I only had nutritional yeast so I added that to the food. The second duckling I’m wondering what the breed is. Thanks!

    What is the breed of my feed store bantam?

    Hi! I’ve had this little one for about a month so I think she’s about 6-7 weeks. She has been so calm and easy to handle so I thought for sure she’s a pullet. She was sold as a silver duckwing but I’m not seeing any brown developing on her chest. So made me think she is actually a he! Please...

    Coccidiosis or gapeworm?

    My two boys are weak, blueish combs and mucous from their mouths. My first thought was coccidiosis. I removed from the flock. Gave Corid in water and orally. Feeding mealworms, scrambled eggs and electrolytes in water. Noticed what looks like indigested food in a few spots around the cage, I...

    Adding cockerels to hens

    These frizzle D’Uccle boys are 8 weeks next week. I plan to add them to my bantam flock of hens (all laying) I’m nervous and tend to wait till they are bigger so they aren’t bullied. I also want to bond with them more. But my last bantam cockerel started to attack at 9 months or so and i...
