Brilliant news then!:) we brought her as a pullet and have grown so attached and I couldnt bare to leave her, she's not fitting in with my flock and not eating and loosing weight, so we have considered making her a house bird, but that couldn't happen if she was a boy :/ but hopefully when she...
Looking for some advice wether she is a girl or not, over 6 months old, no crowing, treding, eggs? Acts like a girl to me as she is very quiet and content! Thanks :)

Before Christmas we purchased a turkey as a pet, but I've gone out there today and when I go to touch her she lays down un willing to move or stand on her feet, with her wings out, and shaking? I'm not sure if something has spooked her, can anyone help?
This chick hatched 2 days ago, and isn't walking on his right foot, it seems to have gone a slightly different colour aswell. So I'm not feeling hopeful, he's making a hard patch in the back of his leg, so I've just put a bit of fabric round it to hopefully stop the pain, but the foot colour...
Syringe feeding will be fine, mareks will stay with them forever now, if you add a new one then they will get it too.. Quarantine won't help, but you need to take precautions not to spread it around like use yard boots, wash your hands, wear certain clothes
Thank you guys! Today she's eating more of the floor, and I've just got to be patient and keep at her with getting her to eat, but I'll defiantly try apple vinegar as I've got done in the cupboard! How much shall I give her in mls?
My 4 day old chick was hatched weak, and struggles to eat much, I'm which case we a syringe feeding her a little, I've noticed that when she sleeps their is a clicking noise? An respiratory infection maybe? Thanks
We had a guinea fowl chick hatch in our incubator two days ago, it was very weak and I'm surprised she pulled through but now she can't stand, it seems like she had tendon damage to one of her legs as she falls to one side and can't get up from it.. I'm trying to help her walk and keep her on...
That's the first duck, which he managed to sort out himself within a day and is 100% fine now, but the other one still has it but the belly bit is a lot redder along with the smell. First chick is eating and drinking but second is obviously stuck in the incubator because he's still attached
My duck eggs are a few days over due, and only 2 have hatched so far, the first one had a small cord still attached to the egg and him, which absorbed the next day, but the second one hasn't absorbed his yet and it's starting to smell, it's got a lump on his bit of the cord which is more red...
I'm worried the humidity is wrong, and they could be shrink wrapped, as it never arrived in the post after.. I've ordered another one tho hoping it will be here tomorrow at the latest.
Will they poke through their air sack and that's how you know they are going to hatch soon?
Thanks
