    It turned out my old cage was soaking up water! I think it was too damp, we built a new one after researching it, I call it the chicken condo, they got better instantly! Still have em all!

    Does anyone raise Silver Spangled Hamburgs?

    I have only one, moe, who turned out to be a hen, she was a late hatcher, so i had to peel her out of her shell, she almost died, what a trooper! She has a special place in my heart, i won,t let her out of cage cause her wings are twice the size og my rhode island reds, can you clip them?

    Why is my chicken all fluffed up and making this noise?

    One of my hens are doing the same thing. I think their having a hard time passing an egg and or being broody. I caught mine laying on a pile of eggs and now she keeps hiding out in the nesting box. I notice them making a weird noise that they usually don,t do but maybe it was a hawk in the trees

    sneezing chicken

    Anyone interested in adopting a hand raised white silky rooster, that I hatched, he is now 6 months old and crowing. Not a really loud crow, but we're not allowed to have roosters where I live and he's to good to sell at a reptile swap!

    Curious Incubation Method

    You should space your eggs out more, use the space for lockdown! I made the mistake of keeping them close so they can send good vibes to eachother and the first hatcher bulldozed all of them and rearranged them. It was like kick ball! My kids think he or she was trying to wake up the other eggs...
