    3/4 y.o. Chicken with swollen hard belly, bow legged wide stance.

    Hello and thank you! Asking for a friend here who has a sick girl. She has been healthy and laying but yesterday was found to be lethargic, labored breathing, standing wide with a swollen hard belly. Watery dark green poops but explosive and loose today. Tail up wings down. She was given a warm...

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

Yesterday I heard piping sounds all day and when I checked on her later I saw the one chick had broken off the...

    Thank you for the rooster collar idea. The boys are living a grand life in the country but I will keep this in mind the next time I end up with a Rooster:)

    Good idea! I will keep an eye out for good wine deals! I do have one neighbor who occasionally joins me for "coffee in the coop"; maybe I should switch that to "keg in the coop" for the other neighbor.

    yes wine always helps! My chicken sitter prefers to be paid in good Belgian beer for her services.

    Too funny! Maybe your neighbor should get his own goats!

    The eggs did not work but a good idea nevertheless. I may have better luck with a bottle of good wine.

    I could not agree more about the other noises and the funny thing is that our hens make as much nose as any rooster. I have tried the egg bribery but the neighbor on one side has her mind made up about what she does not like. I did get her to agree to "tolerate" the boys until I got some fertile...

    Encouraging! Maybe I will keep them just to see if this is the case.

    They are beautiful birds! How do your Roosters get along with everyone? I hear they are pretty friendly. When do your hens start laying and what size/quantity of eggs are you seeing? I haven't gotten to the "dual purpose" part of chickens yet and can't imagine eating them but certainly don't...

    Retrieved my first Bielfelder chicks from the Post Office two days ago. They are so sweet, relatively calm and at 4 weeks are as large as my adult Olandsk Dwarf hens!!

    It makes sense to handle roosters a lot to let them know who the Real head Roo is!
