    Chocolate mottled x paint silkies

    Please help chick with something in its eye!

    My chick has a bubble or something that looks like another eye next to her eyeball! I don’t know what to do with this, please help! I currently have Tiagard, VetRx, and amoxicillin on hand. Would any of this work or do I need something else? Is there any hope for her?

She has also been alive for over three days now. We had a hen that did this before, and we kept her alive for two weeks till we had to let...

    Mini pig experience?

    This isn’t chicken related or anything, but does anyone have any mini pig experience? Like a Juliana, Kune Kune, or a Potbelly pig? I’ve been wanting to get one for a while, but most information I get from them are from breeders. Any information on them, plus maybe some pictures on accurate...

    I know there is a pecking order, but this has gotten pretty bad. At first, it was just one of the hens being mean to another one to the point of ripping out most of her feathers. That is still going on, but now all three of them is also gaining up on a new hen I introduced them to about two...
