Hello! A couple months ago, I got 4 chicks from TSC (Tractor Supply Co.) and 3 are growing up to be the cutest ever.
I have recently noticed "silky" feathers near my EE, Mascara's, tail, which tells me that they is more likely a cockerel. Is this really a roo?
I own 5 hens, my head hen being Fries.
Not so long ago, she has started mounting 'Jeremy', and it has gotten to the point of what looks to be wounds on the back of her head. Is there any way I can stop this behavior, or at least protect her?
I was walking around in my cage when I stepped on a chick!
She frantically attempts to stand, but can't hold her weight on her left leg.
Her head can barely move, and only one eye can open.
She is still chirping, sometimes opening her one eye.
Is it possible she survives?
My chicken, Jeremy, just got a swollen eye today.
No other symptoms, such as ones common in respiratory diseases.
She has been trying to go to sleep, though it's 10 in the morning.
We can only have organic chemicals inside local stores (by law), and I don't know if we can get them online in...
Hello, we currently have 3 chickens. Since the fourth died, all 3 suddenly would stay by our doorstep. They also became very quiet, frightened easily, and sometimes wouldn't leave their coop. Are they sad? Maybe scared of something I don't see?
Godzilla was an amazing hen. She was very calm and nice. One of my favorite hens. Godzilla is what I named my account after. Now she's gone, and only 3 chickens left. Rest in peace, my beloved hen.
Hi everyone, I recently lost my favorite roo to a respiratory illness.
I don't know which bacteria caused it, but I want to prevent my other chickens from getting it. Any idea of causes and ways to stop it from infecting the rest of my flock?
Hi! I've recently added a rooster to my flock of 5.
The hens haven't accepted him yet, and are pecking him a lot, which I expected.
But he isn't pecking back, and seems scared of them. Is this normal?
Hello chicken enthusiasts!
I was just watching my sweet Vader and I saw her wag her tail.
People say they do it right after being bred, but we have no rooster.
Any idea on why they're doing it?
It's only our hen, Vader. She has an "adopted" chick.
Does the "No-Crow" Collar actually work? I wanna start hatching, but roosters are too noisy for my neighborhood. I've seen the No-Crow in ads and stuff, but I'm not sure if it is true.
I got two chicks, Skywalker and Grogu.
Skywalker was attacked by one of our dogs today.
They were like sisters.
She still has Vader, their "adoptive mother". But I am not sure if the chick will be alright without Skywalker.
Hello from California!
I am an owner of 6 chickens. I am deciding on whether to get an Ayam Cemani, but for now, I have 6.
We have a black easter egger hen named Godzilla
