    Eggbound

    My sweet girl was in and out of eggbound issues. We did soaks and lube and it would slide back in, but would reoccur a day or two later. I thought for sure today was her last day, but we were able to get the blockage out. She is very weak and can barely walk. She’s lost a lot of weight. Do...

    Keeping the girls warm

    I have a smallish coop and I’m trying to figure out best way to keep the girls warm this winter. The girls have a run attached that has been winterized on 3 out of 4 sides. I’ve also placed plastic sheets on the inside of the coop to prevent draft. The nights are starting to drop into low 20s...

    Curious about a prior illness

    10 week old chicks

    I have two frizzle Cochins that about 10 or 11 weeks old. I had them in them in a separate cage for about a week. I take them in at night since I can’t integrate them yet and I’m afraid it’s too cold at night for them (getting down to 40/45). I let them in with the my three 9 mo old girls today...

    Frizzle Cochin cockerel or pullet?

    I know this gets asked a lot, but I’m worried about my almost 5 week old frizzle cochin. We already have a surprise roo and we are not looking for another. With the comb and red waddle do we think roo or hen? Also, just look at all the frizzle! I just love it!
