This is my five-year-old chicken named Dakota. I came out to check on them this morning and she was sitting in her nesting box which she usually doesn’t do unless she’s laying in an egg and when I open the doors to let them out she wouldn’t come out , so I picked her up to check her out and she...
This black rooster wandered into my yard about a week ago and I’m still on the search for his owners. Although I’d be more than happy to keep him. I’m just wondering what breed he is as he has white wind tips, red comb, wattle, and ear lobes. As well as white and black speckled legs.
Yesterday I was feeding my chickens and I came out to one of my hens puffed up on her roosting bar, kind of swaying back-and-forth and shaking, I thought she was cold, so I turned on her heat lamp and today when I came out, she was dead as I was feeding the rest of my flock I see this hen so I...
My 6 year old Delaware is being super lethargic, has a very large soft crop, but her beak does not smell sour, she hasn’t laid an egg in at least 2 years and it was about 60 degrees outside side today so it couldn’t be frost bite. She also has no unusual lumps or scars anywhere. I don’t know...
My chicken Teagan is 5 and she was acting lethargic yesterday, so I brought her inside. She was walking around before. but now She’s pretty immobile. I have fed her cat food and water, and she seems to be swallowing the cat food, but the water just kind of drips out of her mouth.

I have a Rhode Island red hen that is laying down and won’t get up and her comb is turning blue so I’m thinking she has some sort of heart failure or circulation issue what should I do?
You might remember that a while ago I had a chick with a vitamin deficiency now he/her is a lot better he/her is walking now still not 100% but I don’t know if he/she is a girl or a boy. When you look at him you think oh rooster but when he/she makes noises he/she sounds like a hen his/her tail...
I think he might have a vitamin deficiency he has it in both legs one I worse than the other. But I’m not sure advice is welcome and wanted. Thank You!
I think my favorite chicken Eggo pulled a muscle or tendon or ligament in her leg she picked a fight with one of my roosters and now she’s limping and hobbling around if needed I can send more pictures. :hit
my pea chick (baby peacock) is very exhausted add I had to pull a 3-4 inch poop out of her/him. I have been trying to give her water and food out of a syringe.
So we’ve had a racon that ate one of our eight-year-old roosters. And it’s been eating the bate But he knocks over in the trap and sets it off but he doesn’t go in it what should I do because I can’t let any of my chickens out right now and I can’t switch my little babies out like I was going...
I was talking about yesterday just took a turn for the worse. He won’t open his eyes he won’t stand up he won’t eat And he’s very lethargic he doesn’t peep very loud either.He doesn’t have very good balance either.
