I have 2 six month old Silkie hens that have both laid many eggs so far. About 10 days ago both got broody and have been hanging out in nest boxes. I pull them out to check on them and all has been fine until today. Or maybe I failed to notice it before. But one has an egg size bump on front...
Hi
I live in Hempstead Texas and currently have 16 chickens and 3 roosters (that I know of).
I have 5 each of Silkies, Buff Orpingtons, Black Jerseys and 4 Rhode Island Reds. My husband built a really nice 32' coop and run which is located in a fenced area in the pasture. They have it made...
I have a 3 month old Buff Orpington whose eye and face look horrible. Possible peck injury from others? Maybe hardware scratch but we are very careful. I have 16 hens and 3 roosters.
Any idea if this is an injury or illness? So far all others look great.
Any input would be helpful.
Thank you.
