    Infected Pins

    They all free range together, I'll have to ponder how I can manage that. What would I use to treat the infected area? Any ideas?

    Infected Pins

    I have a hen, who molted in April and is still walking around with a bare back, plus broken pins that aren't coming out. Some of these broken pins are quite large. I think some of this is roos doing it to her, keeping new feathers from growing in, as she is also scabbed. Yesterday I noticed...

    do hens fight like roosters

    I've been wondering the same thing with my flock! We've had three broodies hatch eggs this past spring and I'm seeing a lot of them bump chests and wondering just how many roosters are gonna come out of that little adventure. lol

    Two Shell-less eggs Just Fell out of a Frightened Chicken!

    It was the oddest thing. My daughter was petting our Rosie Girl, who was making her usual happy clucking sounds in my daughter's arms. A loud noise startled Rose, and two eggs fell right out of her. One a yolk, one an egg without a shell. Has anyone heard of chickens having the eggs scared right...

    Two Hens Sharing the Brooding?

    Thanks. I caged her and gave her two eggs to sit on. She accepted them readily so now we're counting 21 days with her too. :)

    Dropped an egg that is due to hatch in 3 days

    I would put a damp cloth on that. The membrane dries quickly once the shell is off. Hope you update, if the chick survives! I'm curious about it!

    Two Hens Sharing the Brooding?

As in, Blackie, showed broody in the morning when I went out, and by afternoon Pirouette was in there with her with the fanned tail and broody defense when I went...

    New Chick Can't Walk

    Yes, it's under our chick warmer that we had for our Tractor Supply chicks (that are in the coop now) and on a towel, so it has some "purchase" to grab onto. Toes aren't curled and I really don't think it's suffering. As soon as I peep my head at him and make little chirping sounds he picks his...

    New Chick Can't Walk

    Short story. Broody hen has four chicks hatch Saturday into early Sunday morning. She left the nest Monday afternoon with the 4 babies to show them food and water and I found two eggs hatching. One was peeping and active, the other was only very faintly peeping. By Monday night it was apparent...
