    Cyanosis?

    Could this be cyanosis? I found her laying down in the coop, not in the box. Picking her up easy and she just drooped in my arms. I laid her down in the bathtub and she laid flat like she was already dead. I put just a little bit of warm water with epsom salt for a little while. She perked up...

    Suddenly stopped laying

    I have 2 Barred Rock and 3 leghorns with a Beilfiedel (spelling?) rooster who are all 2 years old. I also have 2 mixed breed hens that I incubated from my hens who are 6 months old. Large coop and large 10×20 run. My 2 barred rocks have stopped laying. Its been 2 weeks. At first I thought one...

    Crop issues

    Yesterday one of my young hens (6 months) started vomiting. I immediately noticed her crop was swollen. I massaged her crop and she expelled a lot. No sour smell that I noticed though. Immediately after she seemed to be starving. I separated her though and brought her in the house away from the...

    Easter Eggers, Pulllet or Roo

    I got two baby easter eggers to add to my flock. (Our 4th grade teachers incubated eggs in science) I dont know if each were born on the exact same day or a few days apart. They are approximately 4 weeks old. I picked two that had the exact same wing and tail length. However one is now slightly...

    Dying as they hatch?

    In my last two incubation sessions, Ive lost 1or 2 just as they hatch. They pip, rest and then stop progressing. Both times, they've been kicked/rolled around as others are hatching around them. Is it possible they got rolled too much? What can I do to stop this from happening? Both times I had...

    California White??

    I recently tried my hand at incubating. I was 50% sucessful but I know what I did wrong so I'll right my wrongs in the next go round. In the meantime, I hatched 3 barred rocks, 1 brown leghorn and what I thought was 4 white leghorns. But...3 of my 4 have these black spots. Are they California...

    My baby died....

    I lost a hen this weekend. 15 months old. I deduce that it was the heat. We've had 105+ days here and though they get fresh water everyday and food and frozen fruits etc, in this heat maybe it was inevitable. She was a barred rock. My leghorns are doing fine but i worry about my other barreds. I...

    Rooster with frostbite concerns

    My 8 month old Bielefelder rooster has frostbite. Theres no doubt. Wattle and comb are turning black. We've had over a week of below freezing temps and many days below 20 degrees. I struggled to keep water from freezing and probably made the mistake of placing water in their coop, therefore...
