    Swollen Lump on Side of Chick

    I just got a chick from a breeder a couple days ago. It is a two month-old Silkie. I noticed today (it wasn't like this when I bought the chick) that on the right side, under the wing, there is this air-filled pouch-like lump. It feels like a small balloon under the skin right above the chick's...

    Sad day today...

    Today I went outside to find one of my favorite silkie chickens lying on the floor of the coop, practically ripped to shreds. And the worst part is that he was still barely alive. I could see him twitching and breathing out of his beak. I couldn't bare to see him suffer so.... I made myself...

    How to tell if emu is "skinny"

    Lately I've been worrying a little bit about my two emus. They seem kind of on the skinny side. I'm not sure if maybe I'm not feeding them enough?

    I have questions about button quail

    So today my dad came home with a few button quail. He says he was in an old mexican market and a man had a ton he was giving away.

    I have a broody mama hen who during the day lives in our front garden with her babies. I wasn't worried about predators because the go in a coop at night and in the garden there are bushes and plenty of other things to hide in. Not to mention it's right up against the front of the house. So...

    What predator did this?

    Last week one of my 7 week old RP turkeys disappeared. They have the option run freely around the pastures but they mostly stay in the shady barn. Since there was no evidence of attack, I had always thought that this one turkey decided to wander outside and it got picked up by a hawk. A couple...

    I've really grown to hate hawks and other predators of the air

    My chickens love to free range around the pastures and I never really worried about them until a hawk got one of my favorite hens. Hawks are beautiful creatures but boy do they anger me. I'm one of those people who completely see chickens as pets. I love to bond with every one of my girls so it...

    URGENT chick with swollen, deformed leg (pics) UPDATE Sad goodbye

    HELP! Last week ago we brought home a turkey chick from a feed store. Until we got home, I didn't notice that the chick had a deformed foot. It's the left foot and the left toe is bent almost underneath the rest of the foot. I think it is just a birth defect and not broken. I didn't think too...
