This is a 2 year old hen that we have and this is how I found her eye and face this morning. Excuse the lack of feathers on her back we had a couple too many roosters till they went to freezer camp and her feathers are just now growing back. I've never seen this before, none of our other...

Is this a mottled java? we got an assorted pullet mix from Ideal poultry and it was one of options. I can't find any other breeds that they could be. Thanks

Hi I'm pretty new here but have raised chicks a couple times now in the last few years. I ordered chicks from ideal poultry and they were hatched and shipped on monday 6/12 long story short they were still in TX this morning 6/14 instead of Idaho where I am. I will be extremely surprised if they...

I don't think she's an easter egger/ameracauna as there's no green eggs anywhere I was just saying basically she could be any kind of chicken. The neighbor got them last summer so she's not a mix unless they come from the hatchery mixed. I'm pretty sure her eggs are the dark brown/speckled...

Hi there, we have one of the neighbors hens that has decided to be broody in our barn and I'm wondering what kind of chicken she is. The neighbor doesn't know and says he got a hatchery special with everything form black polish to araucana's and some in between. She's real pretty and I beleive...

There's no white on any of their heads just on their chests that's why I was confident they're all pullets. The ones I got before are exactly the same as the black sex link pullets I ordered and picked up today. Thanks though Kjersti

The verdict is in they're black sex links. They're identical to the ones we got today. The good news is they're all pullets and they were super cheap! Thanks for the ideas it was really interesting. Kjersti

They seem like maybe they're Australorps because they act like they're straight run. They're a week old today and there's a few that are already bigger and a lot more bold than the rest of the shy, petite ones. Like the bold ones are already sizing up the waterer and trying to fly up there...

Thanks for all the idea's! the hatchery they're from doesn't have any black jersey giants so don't think thats it. Their legs are black but a few of them have one toe that's yellow and the other two black and then there's some that all toes and legs are black. kinda strange. Their bellies are...

I'm assuming they're straight run mostly because they were with some golden sex links but there were males and females of those. But they could be pullets or straight run really since I took all the black ones. I looked at pics of the barred rocks too and pretty much ruled those out because of...

We got these chicks at the feed store yesterday however they were in a group of misc. hatchery choice and the hatchery lady that delivered them took the invoice with her so the feed store really didn't know what these little guys were (they were hatched monday so they're 6 days old now). Based...

Well our little hen died about 10 min ago. She started gasping/ratteling with every breath and shivering and in the ten minutes it took me to get some penicillin in a syringe I came back to see her go really sucks. She must have had some internal injuries that couldn't be seen. We did the...

she's a bit better this evening. REALLY liked the kefir I gave her and ate some layer pellets. She perked up a bit when I moved her tote to the kitchen in the sunshine coming in the window. I know i know I baby her too much probably lol, doesn't matter the animal I love them all. Good grief...

I have a hen that was attacked yesterday afternoon by the neighbors beagle (grrrr I could rant about people keeping hunting breeds of dogs trained and home but I'll spare you..) I caught it early and the hen is alive and doing so so. She's got an area a little bigger than a silver dollar on her...

Was it this one? http://www.avianaquamiser.com/chickenwaterers/

Unfortunatley we lost her I really appreciate the advice though. Even though we didn't save her if we can get an idea of what it was hopefully we can prevent the other birds from getting the same thing. I'm interested to know though if there are internal clues that might confirm that this...

Weight wise she's skinny. She's been on the light side since we got her but i'm not sure how much she's lost since usually she's so flighty you can't get near her. She still hasn't moved from where i laid her this morning. She is just laying with her eyes closed. She won't even open them if...

Hi, I've got a 2 yr old leghorn that is very sick. i noticed yesterday morning that she had a bit of runny poo dried but otherwise seemed to be fine so i just watched her throughout the day. However this morning she is very bad. i found her laying on the floor of the coop under the heat light...
