    Neck injury after fox attack

    Hi so I posted about Ruby's situation you can read here but I'll try to summarize Essentially Ruby was attacked by a fox and survived, but has been off since. She also had a crop impact and I performed surgery. I'm not concerned about that, surgery went well and it looks good. My concern is...

    Rough rooster plucking head feathers

    So the title is the basics of it. I have a mille fleur rooster and some Rhode Island reds, a lavender d'uccle and a few salmon faverolles. The salmon faverolles look really rough, he has their heads bald from mating. I'm sure it's not good with the sun too. I know it's not mites because if so...

    Gaped mouth, noisy gasping for breath, diarrhea

I had another chicken with a respiratory illness just like this but when they were chicks, treated her with Vetrx, and then she made a full recovery. I'm almost wondering if...

    Hopeful first time hatcher

    Just figured I'd make a post for if anybody wanted to throw any tips or anything down. I've been raising chickens for years but just never decided to incubate. They always raised their own chicks and I guess why fix something that ain't broke? I have an interest in it now though, so figure I may...

    Salmon faverolle/mille fleur d'uccle mix?

    Has anybody tried this particular mix? I have a mille fleur rooster with my faverolle hens and this is ultimately my goal, whether or not they'll go broody on their own or if I'll have to invest in an incubator. I feel like it'll be a nice cross but figured I'd ask

    Anybody have a converted walk in freezer?

    Just curious if this is something anybody else has done. My dad built the coop over a decade ago, just like it says it's an old big walk in freezer that's been converted, windows, roosts, and nest boxes added, that's the "indoor coop" as we call it. Then the "outside coop" which is an addition...

    Thanks for having me!! (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Not new, I've been raising chickens for over a decade. Our first chickens were a pair of golden sebrights named Kernel corn (or colonel?) and popcorn. (2) How many chickens do you have right now? As of...
