hey yall! after talkin to some of my good friends today, im interested in getting into photography. I’ll be dumping photos of my flock on this thread, and would love feedback!
hey yall! i have a 19 month old cinnamon queen hen that already molted about 1.5 months ago… she’s molting again? Is this normal? This is my first molting season so i don’t really know much about it.
Hey y’all!! I’m wondering, what is your FAVORITE chicken breed?
I want the best egg producer, but I know that the ones bred for production are prone to short lives and/or health issues. So what is your tried and true, healthy, productive hens?!
Just tryna plan for possible chicks this spring...
For a week now, my flock has BARELY been laying. The week before I was getting 10-14 eggs a day. I have 26 current layers I believe and I’ve only been getting 6-8 eggs a day, yet the past week now has been way warmer than usual, today reaching 68 degrees. I thought with the warmer weather I’d be...
What in the world is coming out of my hens butt? It's off white/ sorta yellow thick discharge. She's walking by herself but still eating. She's 18 months old and a cinnamon queen.
Does anyone have an issue with your hens mounting your other hens?? Is that normal and how do I make it stop, if there even is a way…? It grosses me out 🤢 All of my hens do it except for one. I have 3 that do it every now and then, not very often, and it’s only ever in water. Also, they do it...
Hello! I purchased these 2 birds labeled “Brahma” but I’m not completely sure about them… they both have different comb types (I’ll attach photos) they do have feathered feet. Do yall have any ideas?
Hello!
I have 23 chicken hens that are laying, and I’ve been getting between 5-10 eggs a day. I know the weather has changed and some of my older hens (18 months old) are molting, but egg production has dramatically decreased. I also have 4 laying duck hens who haven’t laid a single egg for...
Sooo this girl was labeled as a black sex link but I feel like she doesnt rlly look like one… I’ve asked this before but now she’s older so I want opinions again 😂
So I posted this same chick weeks ago when it was 4 weeks old and y’all said it looks like a boy… what are we thinking now? It’s 7 weeks old.
Really hoping it’s a girl 🥹😃😅🤞
I have a 1 year, 2 month old Welsummer hen and she hasn’t laid for 2-ish weeks. She laid 3-4 times a week when she was still laying. She seems completely normal, so I don’t know what could be wrong. She hasn’t ever gone broody or anything. Any ideas?
2 of my guineas have been limping and I noticed one has 1 swollen toe (see pic) and the other has a swollen foot. (see pic) is this a concern and if so, what should I do? They are both hens.
2 pics of swollen toe (it’s one toe, I just took two pics)
I found this extremely deformed egg in my nesting box. It has a really thick shell. Don’t see any yolk, just whites leaking out. Causes? Should I be concerned? Is there a term for this? Also, the yellow on it is pine shavings. Thanks!
