    Was told she is an Araucana, but clearly she isn't

    Yep, Black Star. Looked at photos, and that is what she is. Bummer, we were really looking forward to blue eggs!! At least we still ended up with a good breed.

    Anyone know what breed this is? I was told it is an araucana, but it doesn't have any signs of being that breed. No tufts and it has a tail.

    How to Get Urban Chickens in Columbus, Ohio

    Yeah, they wanted to do all the tests too, but I understood we only needed a check up, so I insisted on no test. A visit to our place by the vet would have been way better! And a little cheaper.

    How to Get Urban Chickens in Columbus, Ohio

    One other thing. We are still figuring out what to put in our run. We have our coop and run on a concrete slab. I think we are going to put down plastic in the bottom of the run and then put sand in there. I am afraid that it will be high maintenance to keep scooping out. Any other options...

    How to Get Urban Chickens in Columbus, Ohio

    I took our 5 chickens to the vet off of Billingsley in the Dublin area. It was around $100. I didn't do all the extra tests. The paperwork says to have the chickens checked out by a vet, but doesn't say they need all the shots and tests. I don't think our birds are going to be around other...

    I took the chicks to the vet as part of the requirements by the city. The vet thinks there was a previous injury and the feathers are just having a slow time coming through. Since they are new feathers, she thinks one of the other chicks broke a blood feather and that is why she was bleeding...

    Crusty stuff on bottom of foot

    Is this product much different from Save-A Chick electrolytes? That is what they have at my local store, and it looks like I would have to order Avian Super Pack.

    Crusty stuff on bottom of foot

    My little chick has some crusty stuff on the bottom of her feet. It almost looks like crusty poop, although none of the other chicks have this, even a little bit. This chick is only a few weeks old, and their brooder is very clean. She doesn't seem to be bothered by it, but I am curious what...

    How to Get Urban Chickens in Columbus, Ohio

    I would email Dr. Messer: [email protected]. Or I have an extra one if you want to send me your address I will mail it to you. Also, anyone know what else I need to include with our permit? I understand we need coop plans and a written waste management plan. When we get our chicks...

    How to Get Urban Chickens in Columbus, Ohio

    I am pretty sure they want you to say you will bag it and throw it in the trash. I was told this by people who know what they are talking about.
