The one sick is about 4 years. We are feeding Purina chicken feed for laying chickens. They have 2 coops but the past few nights she has been sleeping in our coop that we converted from a dog house

Also I had a chicken die a few days ago. Everything seemed fine but we went down to put them to bed and she was lying dead as if she was on her way to bed but didn't make it. No feather loss at all so not a predator.

Help my favorite chicken is dying! She's super lethargic her head is drooping her wings are out she's laying her head down her eyes are closed and she rolled over on her side we lost the ticket in 2 days ago who just seem to drop dead please help

I forgot to mention her feathers are falling out. She's been molting for awhile so I dunno if it's related but they are falling out again. She does free range with her flock. No other chickens are sick.

My favorite hen, Sesame is a 2 year old barred rock. A few days ago she got really sick. She's throwing up and she has diarrhea. Both are almost pure water with some green stuff in it. She is still walking around but she's more lethargic.. Going off by herself to lay down and rest. She was...

Stew is my young Cochin rooster who is 3 months old. He just started crowing sometimes, he's guarding his hens like he's supposed to but he does it laying down! (as seen in the picture). He's constantly laying down. There's nothing wrong with him physically and he's not in any pain just lazy I...

Here are some pictures of my hen wearing her bra. It worked great for her. It was trial and error getting a design that worked but we wound up going with a hash tag (#) design. Similar to the picture shown a few threads up only the straps we used were much thinner. We used denim as the central...

Thank u!

So I have 2 Cochins. One is definitely a pullet and I'm about 99% sure the other is a rooster but I'm looking for confirmation.

That was perfectly said. I made it to the end before tears started forming! So very true about it always seeming to be the most loved chicken that gets killed.

Thank u so much. One more question. .. In case I wind up just raising them inside myself: I plan on getting more chicks soon, which will obviously be younger and smaller, I'm assuming I will need a separate area completely for the newer chicks?

OK so I got 2 baby Australorps about 4 days ago and my Austrlorp hen just went broody. I had a few questions about integrating the chicks with my pullet who's about 9 months. First off to the chicks need to be quarantined longer before I introduce them to the pullet? Second if they do go with...

Thanks I will!

I went to cook an egg yesterday and there was quite a bit off blood in the shell! I know eggs sometimes have meat spots but first off all it wasn't a spot it was like loose blood but there was also a string looking thing or blood so...???? Today I had another egg, I think from the same...

OK so then what on earth is this turkey fanning behavior?? This is totally new..

Omg so adorable! And that's an amazing picture!! I know silkie and Cochins make the best moms! I haven't read too much about Australorps being good moms tho?

OK thank you! I've always been apprehensive about doing that to begin with

My turkey aka Australorp Right now my flock consists of a barred rock pullet and an austrlorp both 9 months old. I had some losses but now I'm working on building my flock. Today I just got 2 baby chick Australorps from a local feedstore. First question : If I decide to stick them under my...

Maybe she was just grumpy and wanted to be left alone at that time??
