This girl has been limping and the skin around her eye is exposed. She can’t make any noise now something seems to be juting out of her neck when she opens her mouth. Should we just put her out of her misery? 😔
I cant tell of this is excessive when establishing the pecking order, it’s been the one hen attacking the other very aggressively for the vast majority. She won’t let her into the coop as well. They are similar in size but the one hen just keeps attacking her even though she’s clearly stronger...

I heard today that the feed and percent of protein effects egg shell color. Like if you wanted a stronger blue to increase the amount of protein, any opinions?
I have 5 week old baby chicks and they need to be moved outside or into a bigger brooder. Here is the weather for the next week, would they be ok? I have a good insulated coop.
My chicken jumped in the pool and is very wet. It is cold out side so do y’all have any recommendations on how to get her dry/ warm? I put a heat lamp outside but she won’t go by it.
I was inside and watched my chicken run and jump into my pool! Any reasons as to why she would do this? The water is ice cold and I ran outside and lifted her out. I don’t know if this is the first time she has done this.
Does anybody get purebred baby chicks and raises them until a month or so then sells them for more? Just trying to find ways to make a little extra cash while having fun! Also, what is the longest to keep your chicks in a brooder?
