I think given how straight it was that someone cut it. She was starving to death (only weighed 2lbs it so) when I found her next to the dance studio I teach at. We gave her mash for 2 months. Now she can eat with the rest of my flock but has trouble with treats like meal worms and such. She's...

So Jazz here is a found chicken. No idea on age or breed just that she's been here 3 to 4 months now. When I found her her to beak was clearly clipped very short. It has grown some but not a ton. She's eating well and all that but still has moments of frustration with the lack of it. Any...

Video of her walking (lavender Orpington)

Here's some photos. I

We escaped anything last year. But we do live blocks from a lake and there is a small pond that the wild mallards live half a block from us. So it's possible. But I'm really going to hope it's not because that's going to suck to watch then

Okay. So a few weeks ago a little found bird I had started favoring a leg. Eventually couldn't walk. Then couldn't pass poop and died. We believed a tumor. But the day after she died one of my 2 year old birds that I got as a chick started being slightly wobbly. So I dewormed the flock...

I've never had this breed. Generally then like older people the more white on the head the older? I'm not looking for anything from her other than regaining her health.

Good evening. This is Jazz. She (I am pretty sure) was picked up outside the studio I assist teach dance at. She's severely under weight and probably molting (or at some point many of her feathers were removed). She's had her break clipped as well I'm hoping to identify possible breeds to...

Hi all! So I just have 1 likely gamefowl (found chicken so not something I purchased to know age or breed) that's been identified as a hen (and hopefully remains that way). She is very interested in getting in with my flock of birds. Who are definitely standard or bantams and older ladies as at...

Hi! So I found this chicken. So I can't tell you how old it might be. Things I know. It clucks and sings the danger song like a champ. It's VERY flighty. It's very much bantam sized. I'm not sure it's ever been cooped up a day on it's life. And this thing has great vertical.... And was at one...

Swpye likes to autocorrect it...... My phone is possed by small gremlins installed by a pair of toddlers :p Orpington at least isn't Irvington this time

Acquired on Sept 13th. Definitely had some sort of respiratory illness so is a little slow growing. I'm very confused by the tail.... I've never owned a lavender Orphington.... I mean the comb and wattles aren't much bigger than the buff's I. But we have this very upright tail that is getting...

that definitely could have been. I don't have a rooster so we don't let them just sit. We drag them out (normally screaming) and make sure they are eating and drinking every day. they don't love us for it. But it does make sure they that they aren't getting to thin from sitting. most days they...

we actually tried for 3 days last week to break her. She was only about 20 days into brooding when we got the chick. We definitely put her in broody jail with food and water for 3 days and we saw eating and drinking. And she ranged with the others each day for at least 20 minutes to dust bath...

Normal nest area. However I Put a wire dog kennel around her nest box so that she could get up and move around a bit but the rest of the birds couldn't get to her. I had actually walked out to lock the rest of the birds out of the coop so she could have the whole coop. There was not a single...

Poor Lola cried for an hour before she passed out. Today she is still looking occasionally but not as much. Thanks for the answers. Hopefully tonight is better. There was a lot of crying. Lola cried, I cried, my 2 oldest daughters cried, my MIL cried with us. She was a very loved girl.

All we can figure is because I was out at 8:30 and aw her with the baby and she was fine. And that she was eating and drinking at 7pm the night before that she died of a heart attack or stroke. I checked her for mites, bruising, swelling, any discharge or poop stuck. She was literally in PERFECT...

Yes. The brooder plate is in there and on. It's warm and I even made a snugly cave in the warmest spot I could to try mimic that under mom feeling..... The little Chick that never had a mom wandered right in and passed out.

On saturday we gave my broody 1 year old hen a single day old chick as we legally could only pen 1 more. Today sometime between 830am and noon she very suddenly passed away suddenly. I know the chick can't be alone so I ran out and got a second chick. Before I brought the other baby home there...

now has a friend. And everything was great till the sun went down. Now she's just running around peeping her head off for confetti. The brooder plate is on. I made a cozy "cave" to try mimic bring warm and snuggled under a hen. No doing. The other little chick is perfectly content asleep in...
