This little Wyandotte chick is in with 5 other chicks the same age. They are probably 10 -12 days old. They are on purina chick starter, water with added Nutri Drench and they have a heater, of course. Today I noticed that she was sitting around a lot and would get up just to move and then just...

I agreed to take a little call duckling with a beak deformity and I had a couple questions. I also took a more normal call duckling. It has just a slightly crooked beak. I've read about issues with call duck beaks due to trying to breed small bills and that may be what the issues is. Either way...

So today we found a brown leghorn hen who went broody (really!?) and hatched out 9 chicks up in our barn. I have 2 roosters - a cream legbar and a lemon cuckoo Orpington. These babies are black! How on earth is this possible. Does anyone know leghorn genetics or how this could happen? I though...

I have 4 favorelle hens of my flock of probably 40 hens, 4 roosters. I have one favorelle hen who has done this "coughing" episode ordeal twice now. I tried to attach a video I made with my iphone of what she is doing, but it says the file extension isn't allowed. ?? It sounds like she is...

I’ve had several goslings hatch this summer. They are a Toulouse/Chinese cross. Just pets. As you will see in the video the father had angel wing that i was not able to totally fix. Two of the babies also had angel wing but I think I’ve fixed it in them. Problem is, the one us started dropping...

Any idea what breed of bantam this is? It is about 2 months old and I have 3 of them. So far, I don't see a distinguishable comb on any of them...? Not sure of their sexes. Any help would be appreciated.

So my husband surprised me and brought home the 5 remaining chicks from our Tractor Supply yesterday. Naturally, they are bantams which I am terrified to have, because of hawks that we occasionally see. Anyway, I think I have them all identified except this one. I am thinking she is a red...

I hatched a little Tolbount Polish chick on Saturday so its 5 days old. It was given to me at a Show a few weeks ago. Here is what I've been doing: It is in a rubbermaid brooder with a heat emitter - temp is fine, paper towels on floor. The other chick in with it is totally normal and...

So I had 6 Rhodebar eggs hatch out on Wednesday night and was so excited!! So,yesterday, I got the babies out, washed and sterilized the incubator and put my BCM eggs in it as they are to hatch Saturday. When I went to toss out the 2 unhatched RB eggs, I decided I would just candle them to see...

I came home after work today to find my beautiful 6 month old Swedish Flower hen crouched by the fence. I rushed over to pick her up and within 2 minutes she died in my arms. We had not seen any previous signs of her being ill. No other chickens are acting strange. Here is what I found...

I had one of my super sweet, darling, lemon cuckoo orphington pullets killed today by some predator - highly suspicious of an opossum. I've had them since they were just eggs and hatched them out this Summer. We've got the Ft. Knox of chicken coup/pens that my husband made, but we let the hens...
