    Pullet lame and shanks pale

    For about 2 weeks my pulled has been increasingly lame. One day she was fine and the next I see her basically stumbling around. We had a storm at this time so I thought maybe she got injured somehow during it. I see no obvious injuries and can manipulate her legs just fine. I brought her inside...

    Help sexing 3 month old goslings w/ video

    Hello, I have some geese I need help sexing. I think they're male but they're my first geese so wanting more experienced opinions. Overall they sound the same to me. Sometimes the lower honks (like in the beginning of the video) and sometimes higher more animated. The white one (I think female)...

    Special needs goose (possibly)

    Hello, earlier this week my 8 week gosling was attacked, I think by a dog. I ended up taking him to the vet. He's back home but has a clumsy walk and keeps his tongue sticking out. Vet said it's quite possibly permanent. I think his tongue may be interfering somewhat with his ability to drink...

    Goose head injury with photo

    Not sure what happened to him but I saw his head covered in blood when I went outside. He seems a bit dazed and I have him inside now. I've cleaned him up a bit and the bleeding seems to have stopped. I used vetericyn antimicrobial spray and neosporin (without pain relief). Is there anything...

    Newbie Breed ID

    Hello, picked up 3 goslings at TSC nearly 2 weeks. They're my first ones. So I'm really just looking for any tips on what to look for as they age on breed and sex. And if anyone can help narrow down possibilities. #1. Probably the biggest. The brown is darker compared to the other one. #2...

    Mother abandoned ducklings?

    Last year I inherited a breeding pair of mallards and about 3-4 weeks ago she hatched out 7 ducklings. The past few days though I haven't even seen them while the parents are out in the yard and pools. Early this morning I finally saw them again on a fluke almost. For a minute I was actually...

    Novice question about ducklings and weather

    Last year I inherited 2 mallards and a little over a week ago she hatched out 7 ducklings. It's supposed to be very rainy this weekend and in the 40s. There are shelters but I've never seen them used. I'm a little worried about them being unable to keep warm since the parents love waddling...

    Injury after fight

    The other day my langshan and BLRW roos got into it. Normally they don't scuffle as they've been around one another since they were chicks and are kept away from the hens. Both are pretty large and I found the langshan standing like this. He can still drink and walk but is considerably more...

    Corid pellets

    Accidentally bought pellets instead of powder. Can they still be used? If so, how much? Wanted to check before running back to the store

    Goofy crows

    So I've been hearing this goofy crow on occasion for a few weeks but was never able to record it or know who was even crowing until now. It's my BLRW, he just turned 21 weeks today too. I uploaded it to youtube: link. I also have a short recording of my soon to be 8yo starting to crow at 4...

    Will cockerel mount pullet while she's laying?

    I have a roughly 5 1/2 month pullet who has started to lay. She's in the coop now but I saw the 6 month old cockerel in there with her sorta staring like he was gonna try to mount her so I kicked him out and closed the door for the time being. The rooster with them has been doing a better job at...

    Likelihood of cockerel behavior going into adulthood?

    My 2 oldest cockerels will be 20 weeks on Wednesday and have always been the dominate ones out of the bunch (got 23 chickens in Oct, 5 turned out to be male). Even before they full on hit puberty they were the dominate ones but are now full on a-holes, imo. They're in a separate section of the...

    BLRW

    A while back I made a thread about a BLRW possible (likely) cockerel. Turned 14 weeks yesterday. Still no sign of hackle or saddle feathers that I can see though I'm terrible at spotting it until they're painfully obvious. Here are photos I took tonight (sorry for any blurriness, he gets...

    Worms? Watery green poo (pic. Sorry that its on thanksgiving)

    4yo rooster, he's otherwise active and eating/drinking well. The weather here is erratic so I thought maybe its due to increase water intake. I also add poultry cell to their water 1-2 times a week. Maybe that's screwing with his digestive system? He's the only one I've seen with these droppings

    Hen with lump on comb and "double chin"

    I have a 4yo EE that has developed a lump at the very top of her comb and has a jiggly "double chin". She's stays in the coop a bit since I stopped free ranging and added more chickens to the flock but she still comes out to scratch, eat, drink, and dustbathe. I managed to get a pic but she kept...

    Ayam Cemani

    Will be 12 weeks tomorrow and I'm pretty sure its a pullet. It has a slightly bigger comb than my other cemanis and I'm simply flat out paranoid about having more cockerels from this group I got last month. Excuse the mess, in the middle of upgrading their run.

    Laced Blue Belle cockerels Eastern NC

    Bought chooks from Dragon Fly Farms in Hillsborough NC and these 2 turned out male. They are 13 weeks (hatched 8/11). I'm debating getting rid of one or both. Right now they're a little rowdy but have shown no aggression towards humans or their flock mates. Heres a link to DragonFly Farms page...
