Yeah, i have a feeling he's a boy lol. The vet wasnt 100% sure either way said it was hard to sex the frizzles and was more concerned with his health issues that might have interfered with his development . But either way he is well loved and im sure we will find someone to love him if he...

Here he is playing with the hanging bok choy! You can see amy in the background - shes never too far away now. Sorry for all the pics. We are all rather invested in walter!

Thanks for the positive words! Its been a sad few days and my daughter has been working so hard to make him fit in. She has been making up a fermented mash and giving it to him (and the others) every morning and night so im hoping thats keeping their crops full (i will check tonight tho before...

Yeah the vet said the same thing about internal problems. But at least he had a few weeks of lots of love and attention. Walter has been introduced to the silkie and so far so good. The silkie - amy is POL and seems to be mothering him. We have also had some success with the rest of the...

Thanks! Thats what im thinking too. It will be such a shame if he starts crowing!

Hi, after some opinions on my black australorp - he/she is 19 weeks old, not crowing, no dominant behaviour but im wondering if you think shes a he? I know her crop and wattle are quite large and red but the roosters we have seen and so much bigger than this again! Lol. Im hoping not because...

Just thought id update on the little frizzles. My daughter got up on the weekend to find little ralphy didnt make it. The vet said it was just too much for him to overcome. Such a sad time for her. The other one - walter, is doing ok health wise but is really freeting and looking for his...

I just want to ssy an enormous thankyou to everyone who offered advice! We have taken all your words of wisdom and little ralph is looking so much better! The coconut oil has worked so fast and we can now see some feathers happening! His skin looks healthier and he is much more comfortable...

This is a picture of both the rescued chicks. The size difference is huge and i cant believe they sre both 9 -10 weeks old now. Walter is doing really well, his feathers look healthier and he runs around with the rest of the flock without a problem. But we wont seperate them so he stays most...

Thanks for all the great advice! My daughter is so excited to have new ideas to help her. She currently has the chick crumb fermenting in the water and vinegar and the coconut oil is out to use as a moisturiser while eggs are being boiled! Interestingly enough she had put a heat pad...

Thanks for the reply! We are relatively new to having chickens so i appreciate any advice! We do have her inside mostly - mydaughter takes her outside for short bursts so she can scratch and dust bathe. One of our other chickens seems to have taken a liking to her and tends to let her cuddle...

This is her at 8 weeks.

Hi, im wondering if anyone can help us. My daughter rescued 2 7 week old frizzle chicks almost 2 weeks ago. One is almost completely bald, was severely undernourished, and is so tiny she/he still fits in the palm of her hand. We have them on chick crumble and she has put a little bit of weight...
