So for a few days now I’ve seen the chicks buying at the mommas back side and she keeps pushing them
Off.
Today I noticed blood and it was dripping from the mommas back side.
What do I do? She doesn’t seem in pain but I don’t know if anyone else has dealt with this before?
HI all- I live in the Fallbrook area and have 7 hens 2-3 years old and a new batch of chicks that have been hatched with a broody hen just recently.
This is my first time raising chickens and caring for them in general so I am learning everything from you all and whatever feed store I'm buying...
What do I do? They are heavy and not swishy but momma is not laying on them as much anymore . She has 5 chicks running around. Can I help or hatch them at this late stage or is it a lost cause? Any info or advice will be appreciated.
I had a broody and put 8 eggs under her. They are hatching and yesterday looked like one was half hatched and not under her anymore. Last night it was close to her Wong and I left it and this morning it was a little or agaim and looked dead. I picked it up- it’s breathing and stillnhalf in shell...
I have 7 chickens and for two days it was runny liquid in their bedding. Just in 2 spots so maybe two chickens.
Yesterday I gave them egg shells.
This morning I found a half hard and half soft egg that had not broken yet and gone into the bedding.
Has anyone had this happen? I read about Vent...
