    A hole in the back of chicken neck

    Hello, So my chicken was attacked by another chicken ( presumably my rooster but I did not see it) and she now has a hole in the side of her neck. When she eats and drinks, a good portion comes pouring out of this hole. I have tried to keep it clean, I keep putting iodine and hydrogen peroxide...

    Sick chicken

    Has anyone experienced this. My barred rock, one of 7 chickens, 3 years old, just became weak and droopy. I thought she might be egg bound or something and I examined and that wasn't it. I separated her, gave her electrolytes with a dropper and she seemed to rebound slightly but still weak to...

    1 week old pullets with 7 month old pullet?

    So after 7 months of raising chicks, I returned 2 roosters to the farm I got them from. They really have no clue about chickens at all. I have one pullet left in the coop by herself. She seems lonely and I wanted more than one anyway. After searching, found a farm that does nothing but poultry...

    Built my own Chicken Crate

    So now that I know I have two roosters (only one pullet) I have to try to take them back to the farm. I had no way to transport because when I got them they were tiny. I looked online for chicken crates and they were way too big and way too expensive. I could have gotten a small dog crate...

    Hens not laying...Rooster maybe?

    I had chickens for 20 years. Then moved to Florida and didn't have them for 5. I'm just getting back into it and I'm a little rusty to be sure. I got 4 "pullets" from a local farmer and have had "the girls" for about 3 months. In June, the woman told me they had been hatched in March so I was...
