    Wry neck?

    Neither. Was suspicious of head trauma. She's been getting a bit better day by day. Thanks for asking!

    Wry neck?

    I have a year old spitzhauben hen that has suddenly developed apparent wry neck. She has lost control of her neck and her head just flops to the ground. She is the only hen in 10 years to do this, and I've been using the same feed (nutrena). Is this really a vitamin deficiency?? I'm unsure how...

    Roo??

    I got a straight run of dark brahma chicks. This is the only one who looks different. I want a rooster, but I can't convince myself that this one is. Any thoughts?

    Talk me off the Ledge... $2000 for a chicken coop!

    We're in the same boat. Our coop finally needs replaced, and this year appears to be it. We got a nearly $4000 bid for a wood coop, and are currently waiting on a bid from the concrete block mason guys.......

    Australorp? Jersey giant? Something else??

    Its me again, but this time with chicks from a bin marked assorted brown egg layer. I know what I WANT them to be, but what are they? What details can I lool for to help differentiate between breeds of all black hens? They are all the same age, but one chick is much larger than the other two...

    The black and white chicks from a bin of white egg layers...

    I have a mix of chicks. I know I have buff orpingtons and a variety of polish chicks. But I just can't figure out these little black and white hens. Any ideas?

    Seeking tips for plucking

    It's fall at my mini chicken ranch, and the spring chicks are crowing loudly. It's about time to butcher out the young roosters! I would love to hear any tips, pointers, tools, etc you use to make the plucking go faster. I generally do 10 or less birds at a time (once, maybe twice per year) but...

    Covid-panic-induced chicken keeping?

    I feel that is true here too. I have talked to my local animal shelter and animal control officer. Abandoned, unwanted, surrendered chickens are welcome at my little chicken ranch! I dont know how it will play out, but I know I can properly care for them if needed......

    Broody hens switched nests

    Please help! I'm not sure if I messed up or not! I had a broody sitting eggs in the momma coop - my small coop with 3 nesting boxes. I had a second hen go broody so I moved her and her eggs into the baby coop. After 2 days, the hens switched nests! There was 10-12 days' difference in expected...

    Help! I inherited these speckled white crested feather legged dolls!

    These are what appear to be either tiny standards or bantams. I'm having a ton of trouble IDing the breed. I would welcome suggestions!
