I have a hen, she's about 4-4 1/2 months old. She's had labored breathing, when she clucks (or squacks) it sounds like she's got gunk in her throat. I'm really worried. Her crop is completely empty but she won't eat. She won't drink anything, either. I tried putting her in isolation but it only...

Hi, everyone. I'm still new to this; this is my first year with chickens. bought chicks five-ish months ago. I bought Rhode Island Red and Americana cross-breeds. I've been researching feeds for layers and I'm confused. Been trying to find a chicken feed that's not over $15 bucks per 50 lb. bag...

Hi. My name is Maddi. I just got chickens, and they are only about two months old right now. I have them in the coop, still, but I wanted to know (I heard from a friend) if they will try to fly out of the yard and roost in the trees?? I'm going to add some pictures. There will me my yard, which...

Hi, everyone. I've been scouring craigslist for chicks, and I'd rather not pay for shipping (I know its not much but I'm a cheap skate) and some people price chicks at 3:50 when they arent even a week old, (and add that to driving costs, its a LOT) so I'd love to find somewhere local, closer to...

I would really like to get these birds out, but I don't know what they are worth. Can anyone tell me what I can sell them for? At this age they are at their prime, and I don't want to have to ay for these anymore. They are EXPENSIVE! :D Please help!

Hi, I have some eight week chicks I bought off Craigslist. Theybwere bought from a hatchery by a man who didnt end up wanting Them. I was pretty sure they were Buff Orps, but the are not Gold. They are very white. Please help! Those are some photos. If you need some different ones I can post...

I have a eight week old White Rock chick who can't walk. She is only about 1/3 the size of my others (granted, the others eat a ton, but I dont think thats it) and she cant walk. Shes really pitiful, and I see her try to move, or turn some, but she just ends up cheeping and crying and collapsing...

I have thirty (actually, twenty eight, but its really close) free range chickens, and they eat a LOT. They weigh at least five pounds and they are only nine weeks old. Im concerned, because we buy three bags of feed a month, which adds up to about forty five dollars a month, and they act like...

I had ducks for a while, and they were bad with onions, and i was going to give some to my chicks, but im not sure if they are okay for them. Can i get some clarifications? thanks!,

I want to breed my chickens next spring (they aren't old enough yet) but I can never tell which eggs are fertilized and which are not. I'm thinking of not collecting eggs for a couple of months and letting them sit on them to hatch and the ones that won't hatch I'll just chuck, so that I can...

I live in Lyles, Tennessee close to Nashville. I am a not completely new, but close. I hand raised an orphaned duckling. I just moved and want to get some chicks in early April, the earliest I can, and am having trouble finding suppliers. Along with that, I don't know which breed to get. I was...

My duckling is about six weeks old, and she developed a sickness and I don't know what it is but she is just lying on her stomach with her beak tip resting on the ground and her head weaves just a little bit from left to right. She doesn't notice when I put her in water and when I pick her up...

My duckling (who is a fully fledged house duck. No, no. She's not full grown, she is a member of the family, so she is a very happy house duck) got her foot stuck in the door while my dad who was visiting was coming throught the house and opened and then closed the door not knowing she was there...

I am looking for chickens, and week old chicks, and I know its a little out of season, but I'm wanting to get some before my family moves, just so that in the struggle of moving I'm not looking frantically around for chickens. I'm looking for Buff Orpingtons and Barred Rocks. I'm not sure where...
