    Bald Butt

    Picked up this little lady today, she’s eating drinking and very active. But she’s got a bald butt. No irritation and her poops are normal and firm. Is this just her down falling off before the feathers come in? I haven’t seen it on the others so I just want to check. Thanks in advance

    Quarantine period- how long?

    Hello! I got 3 week old chicks from our local feed store about 2 weeks ago- they are set up and still indoors. Today I just picked up a single Salmon Faverolle of the same age from another farm. I currently have them separate- how long should I wait before I introduce. I purposely got them at...

    Delivery gone wrong. Trying to revive the survivor.

    Help! We had a shipment of chicks get stuck in delivery and all arrived dead but one- she wasn’t great but she was fighting. I am trying to keep her alive. She is drinking (with electrolytes) but not eating. Pooping and chirping. She made it overnight but seems a bit weaker today. Tractor supply...

    Hen or Tom ?

    Turkelton was a rescue after injured as a chick. “He” was destined for thanksgiving, but was definitely pardoned due to “his” ability to snuggle! My husband and I are starting to wonder if we have a Turkeltina. “He” is about 3 months to the day. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

    Crooked Chicken?

    Yesterday I noticed one of my girls holding her head funny, I’ll post photos to show (the best I could capture). In the photo with 2 she is the one on the right. She is behaving fine- eating, drinking, yelling at everyone. Let me poke and prod and I saw nothing visibly wrong. Any thoughts?

    Cape May NJ- Need to rehome Mottled Houdan and Golden Laced Polish

    Hi! Two of my “girls” crowed for me this am. I’m devastated since one was of course my favorite bird. But I can not keep roosters in my neighborhood. So, rehome it is. In the photo it’s the 2 on the right. Someone mentioned there is a specific NJ thread but I can’t seem to find it. I would be...

    Mottled Houdan Cockerel or Pullet- 9 weeks

    Hi! My “girl” is 9 weeks, last week she sprouted “horns” and I asked in a thread (that now I can’t find!) if that was a sure fire sign she was a HE. No one replied and I can’t find a clear answer online- I fee like horns should have been a solid giveaway... Her behaviors are very loving, the...

    Veggies cooked in olive oil ok to feed?

    We had some sweet potatoes that we roasted in olive oil- we didn’t eat everything, is it ok to feed to the kids? Or just raw/plain roasted?

    Wild Ducks and Chicks together

    Hello, I apologize if this is in the wrong thread- BUT. My chicks are currently 4 weeks old (about to be 5 on Sunday.) Last week I received a call at work (Farm) that someone had “rescued” 2 baby ducks and was currently driving them to the farm so they could live with our farm ducks (farm raised...

    4 Weeks Old!

    The flock hit the 4 week mark! They love being outside and wish the weather here in NJ would warm up already so they could move outside! Our mystery bird STILL remains a mystery!

    Normal Poop or something to be worried about?

    I added this on to another post about poops but got no response- hoping someone can help. My birds are just over 3 weeks and I am finding a poop like this. Birds are all eating playing acting healthy and happy. We have recently started more outside time so they are foraging for their own snacks...

    I’m sure I am over reacting (very tiny chick)

    Hello! we received all of our chicks in one order from Murray McMurray 2 weeks ago, they are all “top hat” varieties. In the mix were 2 Silver Laced Polish-they are both SO much smaller than the others one (Sophia) is even smaller than her hatch mate. She is happy, eats, drinks, runs around...

    Roosters Eventually Needing a loving Re-home

    Hello, I’m sure I willnot be the only person posting something like this in the upcoming months- but I reached out to a few local farms and figured this would be another good place. I’m currently raising a small flock (10) - they are mostly polish varieties. They were straight run so I know I’m...

    Normal Wing Growth Spurt?

    Hello! If I’m doing my math right the chicks are about a week old- starting to get in their feather and looking quite silly! I have one Silver Laced Polish (Estelle) who’s feathers seem to be growing faster than she can keep up with! Does Angel Wing exist in Chickens?
