    Heritage poults. First time mama. Curious about if they’re boys or girls.

    They’re 2 1/2 months so this is just an educated guess I’m asking for. 😅 I feel like a new chicken mama asking the question. The smaller one cries a lot and wants nothing to do with humans. The bigger is a little more approachable and does the took-took noise. No displaying. Second and third...

    Floating poop. Should I be concerned?

    While giving one of my cockerels a bath, he decided to end it with a splash. I took him out and usually their poops sink in the basin, but this one floats. Should I be concerned? Is it just the occasional cecal poop?

    Bull frog throat

    I’m worried about a pullet that is breathing weirdly almost like a bull frog. She just started today, so I separated her. She tries and unsuccessfully drinks and isn’t interested in food. No poop. Empty crop. Treating for bumblefoot (which is improving so much). I’ve searched the forums and...

    Helllllp! My baby is spitting up bubbles

    I have a 4 week old chick being treated for coccidiosis. I was feeling her abdomen and must’ve turned her too much. She’s aspirating and bubbles are coming out of her beak. I wiped them but she keeps almost having acid reflux, then swallows. How do I help her? Search of posts has found nothing.

    Vent pulsating continuously

    I have a Barnevelder who is just over a year old and has a history of vent prolapse. Yesterday, we noticed that she was straining, so I put her in the bathroom hospital (my normal crate was dirty so baby crate it is). She laid both of these eggs (pictured) and pooped her weight(not pictured)...

    How long can a broody hold her poop?

    Our broody hasn’t pooped since yesterday, and we have a few pips under her. How long can she go without pooping? She’s young, and this is her first time hatching eggs. I just checked on her, and she threw up clear liquid (probably from holding poop in)! I don’t want to risk her health or the...

    Pour-on ivermectin and hatching eggs

    I tried reading through old posts and didn’t find an answer. Is it ok to hatch eggs after treating hens/roo with pour-on ivermectin? Thanks!

    Ice Cream Bars

    I’m part of the Silverudd’s Blue group, and we had a discussion about the naming for Ice Cream Bars (Isbar [pronounced Ice-bar] + Cream Legbar). Since we are trying to get away from the incorrect naming of Isbar for Silverudd’s Blues, we were wondering if there’s a better name out there. Please...

    Ocular Mareks Testing

    Hello, I adopted a couple chickens and one had blue eyes, which isn’t common for Welsummers. I was told it was because she was hatchery (which I’m fine with since I’m not breeding). They have been quarantined from the rest of the flock for a week so far. She acts/eats/drinks/poops normal and has...

    Tan Silverudd’s Blue (Isbar) hatching eggs

    Hi! I bought some hatching eggs that are labeled as Isbar (I know they’re Silverudd’s Blue now) that are tan. See pic, they are all the way to the right. They should be green. I contacted the seller, and she said it’s genetics since they added a new generation to help with respiratory issues...

    Silverudd’s Blue chick @4 weeks:boy or girl?

    Hello! I’m obsessing over my chick because I was told I would know by 4 weeks. See pics. (S)he’s a Splash, and I see comb and wattle development. If you have 4 week pics of your babies, please share and let me know what they ended up being!

    Fertilized or not?

    These blastoderms don’t look like targets. They also don’t look like simple dots. These yolks belong to my spangled Russian Orloff l, covered by my Bantam Cochin roo.

    Supposed to be Cuckoo Marans, but...

    ...her legs are so yellow. I think she may be Barred Rock. I called the feed store, and they said hatchery quality CM may have yellowish legs. Ugh. Barred Rocks are great, but I really wanted another type of hen and darker eggs. I threw in some older pics after the recent pic. She’s currently...

    Chicks purchased with plucked skin along spine

    hello! I’m new to raising chicks, so when I purchased a few 3-4 week old chicks from the feed store and saw their stripped backs, I had to help! What can I do to help them mend and regrow feathers? Thanks in advance! PNWskye
