How cute! The cage she's in is too big but I have other cages. The last 2 nights I have physically put her in the coop and she hunkered down with the hens when I checked a few minutes later. She was actually sleeping under one of them. But she won't go in by herself. I had to wait until the pop...

UPDATE: Harper is doing great! I've kept her in during the night all last week and out in a large cage during the day. She has really bonded with us! I let her out of her cage in the late afternoon to free range, and mingle with the my 3 older hens. They basically leave her alone or give her a...

Thanks!

Thank you so much. Yes, I spoke with a knowledgeable individual at a local chicken farm and she recommended just that. I have a large dog cage that I'm going to place in the run and have them get introduced that way. She's such a sweetheart! Thanks again! This is Harper. Any ideas on her breed?

Hi there. I work in a emergency veterinary practice in the Tri-state New York/New Jersey area. Someone surrendered in 8 week old chick. Looks like a pullet. I have 3 five to six-year-old hens at home. She's becoming very attached to us however we've had her only one day. I need some guidance...

Wow! How impressive. I have a 2 yr old Black Australorp hen with what looks like a Very gravel impacted crop. She is still bright and passing plenty of gravel stools. I've had her separated from the rest of the flock for about 36 hours now, withholding seed. She's happy to eat some olive oil...

Thank you. I do agree. I am just so surprised! None of the others are affected at all! I have 13.

Thanks. I've started to research treatment. You have all been very helpful!

Thanks everyone. They Roost on 2 x 4s. There's plenty of thick bedding in their coop. She still has all of her toes. I'll keep an eye out for any changes, or signs of infection.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have a small flock though, and there are no signs of mites or frostbite.:(

This is my one year old hen Bucky. Anyone know what might be going on with her feet?

Hi there. I live in Staten Island too, and would love to connect with some local chicken enthusiasts. I have two 11 week old chicks that I am thinking are cockerels. I need some advice on what to do with them considering I will need to give them away. Any help? Thanks so much!

Hi there I have a beautiful black and white 11 week old Easter Egger Cockerel that needs a permanent loving home! City ordinance will not allow us to keep him. Please, if anyone, fairly local, is interested I can deliver him to you.

Thanks. Yeah, not quite sure what she is. She has quite the personality though. That is her buff Orpington chick she hatched the last time she went broody. There was also an EE along with that clutch. She is a great Mom.

Thanks Bruceha2000! I took Oldhenlikesdogs advice and let her out on Friday. She's back to normal! My Sweetie was a year old in June. I was told she is an American white?

Thank you. I'll try that. I hate keeping her caged. This is the 3rd time she's gone broody. The first time broke in like 3 days. The second time we bought some fertilized eggs. This time she's taking her time!

Hi guys, thanks for all your great info! I have a Broody hen that I let hatch some eggs this spring. She's gone Broody again. I've had her in a wire bottom cage for about a week. She's one stubborn girl! Should I keep her in until she lays an egg? Thanks
