I have a 3 yr old hen that all of sudden couldn't walk anymore. Her feet are curled up and legs appear useless.... She uses her beak to try to shift positions. During the first week, she was very lethargic and refused food and water. Would sit real low with wings spread out. Then one day...

Looking to rehome a pair of bantams. The guy I got them from said they were a pair, but I'm thinking possibly 2 males???? The male is pretty mean and tries to spur the chicks and just today he got my 5 yr old real good, so they need to go soon! They are very pretty, the male is...

My neighbor went to TSC and came back with 5 chicks for me. Supposed to be laying hens. the box was marked Cornish Rocks, which as I read up on them, don't appear to be very good at laying, and may be a straight run, so may not be hens...... can anyone tell. From what I've read TSC is not...
