Bit late in my reply but I wanted to chime in anyhow. A friend and I did an egg shipping experiment once using Shockwatch tube labels. This was a while back, so handling methods could have changed for the better (or worse) since then. He shipped two identical size and weight boxes, both with...

They will very likely get to be friends, assuming this little guy makes it to her size. She's a very laid back girl, seems to get along with everyone and I figure she would adapt pretty quick to a feathered buddy. Thanks for the info on the vitamins. Looks like he's going to be on the...

I haven't had any problems with my other silkie either and I've had her since she was young, raised the same way this guy is being raised and she never had a problem. She just turned 4 years old. I don't mind one or two house birds, but more than that and the diaper change duty is not going to...

Funnily enough, the little chick in question in my situation is also a sizzle. I purchased him as a silkie, but everyone that has seen his photos says sizzle. A bit of a disappointment to me in the first place, since I have no interest in sizzles, but the little guy (or gal, I have no idea...

Had his third seizure last night around 10pm CST. That's been 3 seizures over 2 days. It was the same as the others, lasted roughly 90-120 seconds, then he was back up, fluffed his feathers, and went about his business. He has not had any yet today, which is good... I hope. He's still acting...

Yum! Doritos

A scotch egg is a hard boiled egg wrapped in meat, usually sausage, covered in bread cumbs and seasoning and baked. Yum (on the popcorn) Red Velvet cake

Yuck. Scotch eggs

Friend of mine is going to be taking this hen, she has another special needs hen that will likely make a good companion for this little oddball. I also found out this hen originally came from Cackle Hatchery last fall... and if it's genetic, I wonder how many other birds they sold have the...

You saw the thread with my hunchbacked hen.... ironically, this chick and that hen came from the same location.

He had another episode, same as the first, this morning around 11am. Nothing to trigger it at all, no scares or anything. He just chirped really loud, flapped a bit, and fell over. Took him longer to come around this time, he stayed limp for about 2 minutes, breathing steady the whole time and...

Poor girl. Sorry she didn't make it, but at least you gave it a good try and I'm sure she knew that. At the risk of being somewhat insensitive, I would be very interested in seeing the photos... if you feel they are too graphic to post here, feel free to PM me. I'm always interested in...

I wont take her back, but she will end up as a pet. I would, however, like to know what kind of issues she has which the seller was apparently completely oblivious to so that I can pass the word along to others who may be considering making purchases from the same person. Also, it would be...

I know the original thread is old, but wanted to add in my photo as well of a possible roach back hen.... any clues if this is roached or something else?

Few months late in my reply, but Welp Hatchery has them for sale, but I would imagine they are far from the SOP... however, some hatchery stock can surprise you. I have yet to order anything from Welp, so your guess is as good as mine as to leg color and type.

Sultan hen, around 1 year old. Just purchased. I was told the hen had a "sore foot" which is why she limps. Her feet both look perfectly fine, no issues with them at all that I can see. However, her back or hips have some sort of issue. She has very little muscle in her left leg. She can...

I had been using savachick electrolytes and probiotics in his water for a few days. He had two brooder companions when I first got him but both died the first night from unknown issues. I don't have access to polyvosol immediately but can check on it in a few days. The only thing I have on...

Have a 2 week old chick, is a lone chick but has a feather duster and beanie baby buddy with him. Today he was walking around being a normal chick, then all of a sudden out of the blue he cheeped real loud, ran around his brooder, then collapsed in a heap in the corner under the lamp with his...

Theres a group on Facebook called "Rare Chicken Breeds Sell/Swap" where you could list them for free or sale. People there are from all over and there may be someone local to you that would love to have them. If I were closer, I would definitely be interested myself.

Thank you. :)
