I am sorry for your loss and frustration as well. My concern also would be , which in my area anyway, is the transmittal viruses that have been killing poultry in our 4 state region. Wild migrating birds can pose a threat. Make sure there is no run off water that can be accessed, such from...

I agree. Great advice.

I almost thought at the beginning of this thread, twitching meant chocking head back and forth and up and down like mine do. I always thought it was just their way of being interested in what they were listening to. Mainly me. Lol. Oh, and now I brush the teeth before going to see them. 'Spose...

Ok. My pics didn't load? Suggestions?

These are pics of my new Polish babies 4 weeks old. According to the things I've read, it kinda looks like I've got ALOT of roosters this time. Also have one pullet that is black bodied with a white head. Is she one of the blues? A silver laced? , obviously not one of the Golden laced... value...

Pea combs? Is that a color/ size.? I have some black giants that have no combs at all yet at 5 weeks. Should I worry?

My sleepy Roo. Busy day.

Are my 5 week Olds to old to post?

I understand and ty. Im a little disappointed in myself that I let my heart get in the way of my head. These chickens are not like the horses and dogs Ive trained. But my compassion for them is golden. And my actions a bit premature. Now Ive just got to work with what Ive created. So far so good...

I agree...but seeing the fear and blood spots on them, I couldn't and wouldn't just walk away and let it get worse or deadly. I should also have made my beginning nursery big enough to comfortably hold them all until 4-6wks. That was first mistake. I will try what I've mentioned and let you all...

I'll always worry about my chicks. Its what I do. LOL. They are all doing great except my scissor beak. Up in arms about what to do. There was a delay due to weather, and my new coop floor not completely dry, is why I havent moved them outside. Now its snowing again, and but tomorrow 66. Its...
