    growing bump on side of toe? What to do?

    I took one more picture from the bottom and I guess it does involve the bottom too - I don't have a helper or any supplies right now - so after the soak I'm going to let her back out in the yard - do you think it could clear up on its own? Am I going to absolutely have to cut into her foot to...

    growing bump on side of toe? What to do?

    Thank you for your reply. I have read a lot about bumblefoot and I thought maybe this didn't fit the description because the bottom of her foot is not involved at all - and the lump is further along her toe - not right at the spot where her toes meet (most of the pictures seem to be where the...

    growing bump on side of toe? What to do?

    My 1 year old hen started growing this little lump on the side of one toe two days ago and I've been watching her walk and it has grown in size. It isn't making her limp and when I catch her and touch her toe, she doesn't seem to flinch as though it is painful. The lump itself is very hard...

    Will 2 days of layer feed hurt 2 month old chicks?

    I only have 2 chicks (now 2 months old) and I have had them and their mom semi-separated from my layers and they have been eating non-medicated chick feed - but I started integrating them (carefully, slowly) recently and all is going well except that the adults all swooped into the chick food...

    9-10 week old EEs - roo or pullet?

    My best guess is that the white one is a roo (he's much more aggressive than the brown one, a bit bigger and his comb is more red) and the brown one is a pullet - but I'm holding out hope that perhaps both are pullets (and also am aware that its possible that both are roos). These later pics...

    causes of explosive runny poop?

    I have a 3 year old australorp who hatched donated eggs and is mothering the two chicks that hatched - they are 6 weeks old now and so the mom is mostly eating unmedicated chick starter and spending a lot of time in the coop and all the chickens are sufferring with the recent heat. I have...

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    Any guesses about the gender of my 5 week old ees? The brown one's tail sticks up at an angle that is unlike the white one's tail - so that makes me think the brown one will grow a big rooster tail, and maybe the white one is a pullet? Neither seem to have any orange or red anywhere and I don;t...

    motion detecting battery light on coop to deter nighttime predators???

    Two of my chickens have started sleeping out in a tree since the weather got warm and I'm wondering if they would be safer if I got a few motion-detecting lights to put out by the tree/run area so if a pedator comes into the area, perhaps the light going on will send them off? Do you think that...

    gender of ee chicks?

    My broody hen hatched these two ee chicks from blue eggs and they are both supposed to be ees or ameracaunas - and now at about 3-4 weeks old the brown one has tail feathers that stick up in the back but the white one's tail feathers don't stick up at an angle. My theory is that the brown one...
