    Swollen/Infected eyes on a chick. Any cure?

    Yesterday they all looked fine, and today I have one with swollen eyes. I wiped them the best I could with a damp cloth and I dipped their beak in some water so they got something to drink in case they hadnt drank yet today. Any suggestions on how to help them? Gonna try to feed them soon.

    What music do your chickens like?

    So its come to my attention that music is actually good for chickens! My chickens seem to enjoy Skyrim ambience, but I couldnt play it all day like I would like so I got them a little radio. They werent big on classic rock or golden oldies (how dare they), they thought country music was mid...

    Seemingly No Survival Instincts

    So my chickens will be roosting and the second I walk in to clean, dust for mites, check their health (ect.), they jump off their perches and swarm my feet excitedly and search me up and down for food, toys or treats. I thought at first that they were just hungry and the flock wasnt getting...

    More Cost-Efficient Feed

    So I'm not the richest person around and I was wondering if any of yall had any suggestions on how to cut my feed cost. I'm about to begin cultivating the crops to make homemade feed at this point, but the military discounts at the feed store does help quite a bit. Does anyone have any websites...

    Broken beak

    So I believe my rooster broke his beak. He broke out and led the flock on a field trip (thankfully everyone returned safe as soon as I shook their food cup and called for them) but his face was covered in blood. I disinfected it and he ate but I just want to know if this needs any further...

    4 Week Old Barred Rock Genders?

    I have three barred rock chicks, it may still be too early but each of them look different from the other. I think I might have two hens and a rooster due to one having a red comb, a lot more white, smaller tail, and slightly aggressive. If more or better pictures are needed just give the word...

    Why Is My Hen Suddenly Screaming?

    So my hen turns a year old April 22 and she was born 2020. She would give this blood-curdling scream when she is sitting in her laying box, getting ready to lay, which I just figured was her being offended that I was intruding on her egg time. But now she has begun doing the same scream anytime...

    One eye closed but fine when its open?

    I dont know if I'm just an overly concerned chicken mom or if there is something wrong. But better safe than sorry! She keeps randomly closing one eye but doesn't show any signs of distress. She only does it while shes sitting or roosting so I think she may just be tired. Her eye looks...

    Unplanned (but well loved) Chicken Child from Kentucky

    I'm new to the community and am, in fact, late to introducing myself. I have accedentally adopted a chicken when a hen (not my hen, just a wild hen) had children in my abandoned chicken coop. She kicked out some children and all but one (and the ones she didnt kick out) died. Any attempt to...

    English Game Fowel, Brown Leghorn or something else?

    I have this beautiful little one. I ended up with her on accedent but, in the words of Bob Ross, "There are no mistakes, only happy accidents". I would love to know her breed. Shes just over seven weeks old and I believe shes some sort of egg layer, but shes also from fighting chickens.

Shes about five weeks old (born April 22) and I dont know ththe breed, only that shes an egg laying...
