    Cracked beak with blood caked underneath

    My poor girl somehow injured her beak. I tried cleaning it this morning but the blood is caked under her broken beak. I sprayed vetricyn on it. She laid an egg this morning, is preening herself now, and generally is acting okay. She can't eat hard pellets or mealworms but she can eat mushy...

    How long to give chicken a chance?

    Rehabbed a chicken with a severe case of scaley leg mites this winter, and she's been integrated with my two EEs for about 2 months. She has become head hen. All has been fine until a week and a half ago when a hawk landed in my yard. She got my attention by squawking and I was able to scare off...

    Scalex spray for scaly leg mites

    I couldn't find much info online so hoping someone here has experience! I rescued a hen with a pretty bad case of scaly leg mites.

    New girlies - what are they?

    Just out of pure curiosity, anyone know the breeds of my brown and my white chickies? Or are they just Easter eggers? I got them at an animal shelter and they said they're 1-2 years old. They both have very mild personalities unlike the one in the back who is noisy and jumpy (I'm assuming she's...

    Keep urban backyard chickens in my fenced yard

    Hiya! Excited to join the community. I live in an urban area and have 3 Easter eggers (no idea the breed tbh-got them from an animal shelter). Our yard is fully enclosed with a 6' privacy fence, but I'm still worried about them flying up and getting out of the yard. I'm open to clipping their...
