    Bantam chicks

    I'd go with white OEGB... not a girl, that lil comb is popping up fast.  Well, white or a very very pale self blue.  Still, that comb is very defined already.  [/quote What is OEGB?!?

    Jersey Giants Chick - Umbilical opening?

    I was given 4 JG eggs and I was miles from home and it was freezing. I expected nothing, but I incubated and they are hatching. One down and three to go. The first looks great until he rolled over. There's a yolk colored - what looks like a belly button, but my guess is that it's a deformity of...

    Reconstructed Coop Door.

    I have two doors on my coop, one that I use all the time- the other is mostly just wired shut until cleaning. The one I use the most was thrown together with bird netting which I have never been confident in, and hardware clothe which I feel better about. I keep my goats in the coop as well so...

    Help identify wound/scab ??

    It appears to be healing quite well.  I would keep an eye on it and make sure that flies do not have access to her.  I would also not let her near a rooster until it was completely healed. Such wounds heal 'from the outside inward' and can take a long time to heal completely. [/quote It's...

    Help identify wound/scab ??

    I tried Hard to say without a picture, but it does sound like 'rooster damage'.  If dried up and scabbed, just keep an eye on it to see that it does not get fly strike.  If open and moist it would be a good idea to apply antibiotic ointment (non pain killer). [/q I tried posting a pic I'll try...
