I got these new chickens and so I have them isolated from my flock in a playpen and top is covered to protect them from the sun and rain. Anywho, some of my chickens would come up to them and fight with the new ones. One of them would do most of the fighting. I am guessing that during the day my...
Hi, so I am incubating eggs and I got this egg that was alive but I checked it today and it was dead. I noticed that something at the bottom moves. Can anyone tell me what that is? I've got another live egg that has that same thing move but less and I am worried for the live egg now. I recorded...
I've got a small problem about incubating eggs and I'd like other people's advice as I am unsure of what to do. So, one of my hens went broody a couple days back, but just 2 days ago she decided to quit, now I don't know how long it has been since she started incubating. I didn't pay much...
Hey yall, I have been wanting to know what kind of breed my chickens are ever since I've got them🧐 But, now I really have to know. I want to know what to expect from these hens. So, I've got this friend of my mine that has seen my hens and he has told me that he has never seen them before...
Hi, I posted a thread about a week ago, it was about my cockerel. He is still not in great shape. I thought he had a vitamin deficiency but it seems to be a neurological problem or maybe even Marek's. I am still unsure. He can't stand up, he falls on his back or side. He can't balance, nor stand...
Hey guys. I have a cockerel who isn't looking to good. Just a few days ago he started to act slow and noticed that he looses his balance. It sometimes seems like he wants to fall forward and then backwards. And just this afternoon, I went to make sure they had feed, and I found him on his back...
Hey, guys. I wish I could say there wasn't a problem, but eventually, there is a big problem going on with my flock. This winter has been a bit tough for my flock and I. As mentioned in the title, I am having issues with my flock. I have noticed that my rooster and hens are acting aggressively...
This morning I found one of my hens in the roosting house. I noticed that her feces was a bit runny. She is slow to react, her left eye burly reacts when an object gets close. I watched her for a bit and noticed she was hurdled up, moved slowly, has a pale tongue, and doesn't want to drink...
So, I went to feed and check up on my hens this morning and I noticed that one of my hens has this huge bump where the larynx and trachea. It looks like it is deformed. She can't eat, she has tried to peck on the food but in a slow, weak manner. I have no clue what it is. Yesterday, I saw here...
I have a hen(meanie) that has been pecking on one of my hens. Meanie has a tail, sticking up nice and high, does that have anything to do with anything? I will leave some pictures. Anyways, I have been watching her everyday recently, she seems to peck on everyone but most specifically bullies...
Hello, recently I have been curious about sounds that chickens make. It has been a bit hectic since they haven't layed much eggs like they used to. We got some new hens about a month ago but even before they came, my hens still lay few eggs. Anyways, I have been hearing these sounds that I hear...
Hello, I have a hen where her neck is in a weird position. Her tail is floppy pointing downwards not in a normal position. She even walks weird with her neck pointing up. I have pictures attached to show what I mean. This morning I found her laying on her back with her feet pointing up which...
I've got a problem with one of my chickens who can't stand or walk. It has been a few days ago since this has happened, I don't remember when but I found her on the ground, laying on one side. She seemed very agitated. At first, I thought she got into a fight with another hen. After giving her...
I have an injured baby chick. I have been giving it some chick starter grower and some electrolytes. The electrolyte drink is an orange color. I don't know if that is what cause the color of poop to change. I saw it poop a while ago and it looks like it is a brown or reddish color, I put some...
