    Avian Flu need help please!

    Well I'm not certain for outdoor poultry, but with poultry barns they will look fine for a day or two, then all get very sluggish for a day or two, then they die. But like I said that is a poultry barn so sadly you probably won't know it is there until it is too late

    4 day old chick can't stand or walk

    Your chick has splayed legs. It is fixable, but a long process that is difficult for the chick. Splayed lags is commonly caused by the chick being on too smooth of a surface at hatching, but I personally have seen it happen even with good flooring. My theory is that is can also be caused by poor...

    Unknown Predator

    The ground was too dry for any tracks. We set up live traps and left them at the dig site and between the baby and adult coops for 5 nights. We didn't catch anything and it seems to have given up for now. My guess would have to be a raccoon or fox since the coyots around me are too big to fit in...

    Unknown Predator

    The only damage done thankfully is the injured roo and one gone. No prints, no pieces, no blood. Any one have any ideas? It is small enough it fit through a 1'X1' chicken door, and only left feathers behind. We live in West TN if that helps with Predator suggestions

    Unknown Predator

    Never heard a sound. I found my 6 youngest hens in the wrong area, one of my 3 bantam roos with a deep cut above his tail, and the second roo gone.

    Hens or roos?

    We have a silky and I mix chick that are indoor chicks. The silky has messed up feet so it can't get away from predators, and the other is too small for the flock and thus became the house buddy for our silky.I think the silky is female but I want other opinions. I am quite certain though that...

    RIR pullets or rooster

    I found a reference picture of these birds for you. I hope it helps.

    RIR pullets or rooster

    That pic is looking like a little roo, but watch the tail, comb, and back feathers. If the tail feathers curl, the comb grows big, and the back feathers become long and slender, and drape down the sides, you have a boy. If the comb stays smaller, the tail stays straight, and the back feathers...
