Thank you. I'm going to check if the local supply house has it. If not I will order it online. I zoomed in the picture and attached it so everyone can see the effected area closer. Please take another look and confirm. I only have had the chicken for 3 days and it was like this when I took it...

I removed the picture and added a zoomed in picture. Please take a look.

I just bought 3 new chickens that are a year old. One has this big spot of missing feathers around its vent and the skin looks irritated. I sprayed the Vitrycin stuff on it just now but my main concern is that maybe its a disease that can spread to my other chickens? I isolated the 3 birds for 3...

Its a racoon!!! I just saw it. I'm sleeping outside and heard my chickens going nuts. I looked in the coop and nothing. I went around my shed and saw him

I want to sleep outside tonight to see if I hear them get attacked. My wife thinks I'm nuts lol. They are my pets. It happens at night. I thought racoons rip the chickens appart. Its weird how just the feathers are ripped off and the face mutilated.

Its at night always that they get attacked. I have them in a coop that untill now was pretty closed up.

Something is killing my chickens. I have lost 5 in a week and a half. The chickens that were killed by this predator all have the feathers and skin on their necks ripped off. I know its not the chickens killing each other. I don't think its a racoon because nothing else is ripped or torn on...

No they are not fertile as I do not have a rooster. I'm gonna seperate the Lavender today in another coop so that should break the habit for a few months at least but I hate the thought of wasted eggs. I also don't want to get my family sick

I have a broody lavender americana. How long are eggs good for when a broody chicken is sitting on them. If a chicken is sitting on an egg all night is it safe to keep or should i discard it?

I hope so. She is healthy. She's running the yard

I gave my friend an easter egger for his daughters bday. About a few months ago maybe 6 they said she started laying. Fot the last 2 months the hen has stopped. They gave the hen and the other one they had prior back to me. The other hen lays these great big eggs but still nothing from the...

That's the plan. This is my first house. I worked hard for this house. To have someone tell me I can't have what I want in my backyard is ********. I kept everything so clean. I think It was the roosters. I had to many. Lavender Amerucana roosters are just so awesome looking I had to keep them...

I was selling my chick's for 15$ up to 1 month. Then they went up 5$ a month after that. There is nobody selling them here is S.Florida. i hate the **** city though. After they made me sell my lavs i just stare at my coop remembering the beauties I had in there. If you buy from a reputable...

Well my friends, it has been a pleasure. I have been on this site for a while now and selling Lavenders for a year. Someone snitched on me and the city is making me move my birds off property forcing me to sell my flock. I had over 50 birds in total and someone is supposed to come now to buy my...

I'm almost positive the answer is no. I have been selling, raising and breeding chickens for 3 years. Someone snitched on me and i was told by the city to get rid of my chickens. I know am thinking of starting quail. What do you think?

Could be sun bleaching and not leakage, those are 2 different things... has he even molted yet? Also, how much space around his roost does he have? Looks like he might be roosting too close to a wall or something, his tail is very damaged... looks like more than fretting there... Either block...

Another problem I have is I'm allowing my Lavender hens to get broody. I'm having a better turn out naturally then an incubator i spent over 200 bucks on. The problem I have now is the one Lavender wants to go in the nest with the other lav. Its freaking me out because i feel the other eggs in...

Here is my main breeding rooster. He is a year old. I got him at 4 months and he didn't have the brown or golden feathers. Now he does. I was told they would molt off but they haven't gone anywhere. Is this typical for Lavender roosters or is this to much leakage?

That's awesome advice and great to know!Do all Lavender Roosters have a little brownish gold mixed into them? My main rooster has some in his feathers now but he didn't Always have it. Do they molt that out?
