Our one hen that never goes broody got one over on me. She’s sitting on 5 eggs that look like they’ll be hatching in a week. Just wanted to see if anyone would be interested in taking them off my hands when they’re ready to go. They’ll be assorted bantam mixes.

Looking to rehome part of our flock. All bantams, treated as pets. All are friendly. Our yard is too small for the number of birds we have. Too many eggs songs being sung! We also have four chicks we hatched for a neighbor who later decided they...
Hello! This is all new to me. My 7 month old D’Uccle is broody, diligently sitting on 4 eggs. They looked good a week ago and judged they were all around 4-8 days old. They all look very strange now. Have they died? I can’t find any example pics that look like these. Sorry - photos are terrible...
What am I looking at here? Could this be an injury related to using a no crow collar or is this typical rooster anatomy? Follicles are very squishy. It’s almost like a rope going down the back of his neck.
Located in Texas, golden neck D’uccle rooster, 5 months old, seems otherwise healthy...
I have a 2 month old Easter Egger bantam that has foot injury and has stopped eating. On Monday, I noticed she was hopping and falling. I believe she got hurt when I was transferring the chickens in a tote from one location to another. I separated her and saw that her foot was swollen. No lesion...

I have a batch of 16 chicks that are 3 and 4 weeks old. One has dry fowl pox and was quarantined as soon as I saw the wart-like growths. All the others appear to be fine but I know the incubation period can be over...
Just noticed 2 days ago that one of my Easter Egger bantam chicks has a growth underneath it’s beak in the waddle area. Now today I saw one forming on the other side of its beak. The larger growth is hard and bony or wart-like and has now split open a little. The chick screams when you touch it...
Hello! I hope I’m posting this in the right place..apologies if not! I received 3 Blue Red OEGB chicks from Ideal yesterday and one is colored differently than the other two. When I inquired, the response was that there are 3 accepted colorings for this variety. I can’t find any additional info...
Hello!
We picked up a few chicks from the bantam bin at TSC 5 1/2 weeks ago. This one just started crowing and is about 1/2 as big as the others. I thought she looked like a OEGB hen but once she started crowing and I got confused. Don’t cockerels have different coloring? Maybe this belongs in...
