    How can I save it?

    This silkie chick hatched yesterday. It did have a bit of a rough hatch and was a little bloody. How can I help it? It’s not splayed leg but it’s like it can’t get its legs underneath it to stand. It just flails around. Here’s a video (sorry I couldn’t figure out how to embed this!)...

    Cochin or Brahma?

    I’m pretty sure this is a blue Brahma rooster, but can anyone confirm? It was a free chick I got in an order. He’s around 5 months old. Thank you!

    Third wattle?

    I have a naked neck Turken with what looks like a third wattle. Is this normal or common? It almost looks like what turkeys have in between his two wattles.

    What color is this silkie?

    So I am beyond obsessed with this silkie that I hatched. What color would she be considered? She’s still young but does she look like a good breeding prospect? She was born with quite the vaulted skull and I did read that could mean a nice floofy head.

    Sick Poult leaking clear fluid from mouth

    It’s been insanely hot here like everywhere else on the east coast. I have multiple fans outside for everyone including a mister fan and they are in shade all day. Everyone has been doing okay. Last night I put everyone away and put a fan in the coop to help with air flow. This morning I found...

    3/4 dead chick. Please help.

    I have a chick that is approximately 7-8 weeks old now. I had a bout of coccidia run through that I’ve been struggling to get rid of because it will not stop raining here. I’ve had the flock on Corrid and everyone is doing much better except this little one. It is still alive. It cannot stand...

    What is my silkie?

    I struggle with silkies and I know it can take awhile, but this one is giving rooster vibes. What do you think? About 12-15 weeks old.

    Bourbon Red Poults

    I am super new to turkeys and am curious when you can start to tell what is a hen vs a tom. What signs do you look for? My poults are approximately 8 weeks old now. Here are some pictures of them 🙂

    Sick Poult

    I have 4 bourbon red poults. One of them got sick with suspected coccidiosis and I’ve been treating them for about 5 days now with 2 tsp per gallon made fresh every morning. The one who was sick bounced back and is looking fine. Yesterday I noticed another one not looking well and it’s looking...

    Hernia? Are these intestines?

    I just pulled some baby chicks out of the incubator. One of them still have the long strand of umbilical attached to it and I saw this. Is there saving this chick? How do you treat this? I’ve never experienced this before 😭 it looks like some yolk and some intestines but I can’t be too sure.

    Silkies dropping like flies - please help 😭

    I am majorly struggling. I purchased eggs from someone I follow and just love her birds. They were shipped to me. 16 eggs total, 6 ended up hatching. One was a dream chick for me and was a little showgirl that I adored. I put them with naked necks that I purchased that were the same age. I...

    Naked Neck Project Colors

    I am really wanting to start a personal project of naked neck turken cross colors. I've been trying to read and understand and could use some guidance (on like a 1st grade reading level since genetics is making my head spin). If I wanted to create naked neck chickens that had feather colors...

    Suffering? Help!

    I had 6 eggs hatch today and my last one needed a little help because it was slightly shrink wrapped (not bad at all, just stuck in the membrane a bit). Now that it’s out I feel like there’s something going on with it. Ontop of what you can see, it’s just laying on its back shaking. Is it dying...

    Coccidiosis poop? Nothing but blood.

    My 12-ish week old d’uccle was found this morning hiding under my coop. She’s poofed up and lethargic. I moved her to a solo pen in my garage after noticing blood on her feathers and suspecting it was something else after no injuries were present in anyone. Then she pooped this. I’m new to...

    Heat plate burning Naked Neck head?

    I have a week old turken in my brooder with a heat plate. I’m pretty sure it’s resting its little head against the top of it and it’s gotten a burn on its head. I’m afraid to raise it up higher because I thought you wanted their backs to touch the heat plate? Should I raise it? Move her to a...

    Assuming pet/hatchery quality silkie?

    Here’s another chick I picked up from rural king. I got it out of the polish bin not paying attention to the feathered feet. I’m assuming this is just a hatchery quality silkie? Only has 4 toes but has the black skin with feathered feet…. Unless it could be something else?

    What breed?

    Can anyone help me identify? I got this little chick out of the bantam bin at Rural King. I tried looking at hatcheries, but just don’t feel like I can really pinpoint the breed.

    Who could be the daddy??

    I have eggs set to hatch on Sunday. I got rid of one of my roosters about 5 weeks ago and have since had my ladies with a new rooster. Both roosters have actively swooned the ladies, but obviously my newer rooster for the last several weeks (he was raised in the pen so just took over once the...
