I really hope i am wrong about this one. I bought a couple hens at the fleamarket or so i thought. This pretty easer egger looked so much like a pullet but now im seeing what i think are saddle feathers and he/she is giant.
I know the pictures suck, they are the best i have. If you need me...
She is a Rhode Island Red and I was told she was 6-7 months old. She was active and had clear eyes.
she just sits there because her eyes are shut now.
3 days ago she had bubbles in her eyes and the following day one was shut. I brought her inside andnowboth her eyes won’t open.
The other...
This is my current coop and I love it.

I am looking for a coop kit preferably with a run (in case of bad weather). I have 4 hens at the moment but hope to have a flock of 8-10. Any suggestions are welcome.
I have two meat turkeys that over night started acting strange.
The hen can't walk strait (turns to the left) and her head is tilted.
The tom can't stand up but his head is fine and he drinks and eats if i bring it to him.
None of the other birds are doing this (although they are being treated...
He is TINY! He fits in the palm of my hand and is full grown. He is the size of my 3 day old Muscovie ducklings.
I also wonder about this one, he's a little better.
I took a chance and stuck her with the 3 day old Muscovies i have and was adopted.
I have no idea what 'runt' is. She/he is a third the size of the other ducklings.
Any ideas?
These were sold as Silver Laced Wyandottes..... any guesses as to what they really are?
The two gray, the almost solid black and the black and white one are the Wyandottes in question.
A couple of my chipmunk EE's.
I have had button quail as pets (and the eggs were tasty too). I am now looking for a quail flock that can supply eggs and possibly meat (but not a have to).
I live in Washington and can't find any place to buy chicks or adults.
Do any of you guys have any ideas?

I found this egg this morning and the only hen laying is a Rhode Island White. She is around a year old and has been very healthy.
They look like a whole bunch of mini eggs clustered together.
Any ideas?
I have 7 different chicks that i want to put outside.
They will have plenty of different areas for shelter.
I only have two adult hens (one has already adopted one of the chicks).
They are different breeds (cochin/silkie mix, EEer, cornish cross, NHR/Buff Orph mix).
Is it too early to put them...
