Hello everyone. Thank you in advance for the help, this little guy died this morning from whatever this is. He was lethargic for one day and died the next morning. I want to know what it is so I can watch for it in the rest of my flock. Thanks again
Hi everyone. My Wellsummer came back to the coop with her toe like this a couple weeks ago, she limps and holds her foot up as you can see in the pictures it’s the middle toe and it’s swollen. she stays around the coop all day and is taking it easy, but she’s miserable. what can I do to help...
at one month old they could of gotten eaten we always have trouble keeping ours alive when they reproduce during summer. If they weren’t able to fly and roost somewhere high chances are high that something got them
Amazing! Thank you so much. They seem to be getting stronger by the day. Again thanks for being such great help. It’s is so very appreciated, I don’t know what I’d do without this website lol.
Thank you so much!! I’m going to try this. How many days should I do this and how many times a day if you don’t mind me asking? Also yes they have trouble balancing and walking around they just topple over that why I have kept them in a cuddle puddle.
Hello everyone. I have 4 Guinea Keets here that the mother abandoned. I picked them up yesterday morning, a few hours after they had hatched. I moved the guinea hen and her 20 babies into my baby coop. These 4 were left kicked out from the nest and already had flies on them, barely hanging on. I...
Thanks everyone for your help!! I have their separate area well insulated with straw and an old blanket, they seem to be doing fine :thumbsup so grateful for you all and this website!! Lol
Hi everyone. This may be a dumb question that has been asked a million times, but I just moved my chicks into the coop at 9 weeks old. It is only 2 of them, on their own roost because my guinea is not very nice to them and especially does not like sharing a roost just yet so no warm cuddles from...
hello everyone, happy to say they are doing great. After a couple days they are back outside enjoying springs weather. They're wounds seem to be scabbing up with the help of the medicine. They sure are some tough baby's. Thank you everyone for your advice it's very much appreciated :p:love
thank you for the kind words shessowitte :love they're my babies and seem to be feeling better. It took awhile of resting but they are up and around now, still appear to be sore, they just want to cuddle one another. But I'm happy to see them eat and drinking water on their own. :wee
Hi everyone. I recently put my 2, 9 week old Orpington pullets outside into our new coop and while I was gone for a short 20 minutes my brothers stupid dog broke through the wire and attacked the two, I found them both very shocked and barely alive. One has her right wing dropped, can stand up...
Thank you everyone for your help! Maybe someone with more experience can tell if this is a male or female? If it's a male I will get a female to bond with. Guineas are Interesting fowl :)
I saved a Guinea keet from my neighbors it got left behind by the mother in my yard and just moved in with my two Rhode Island Red hens. Now he is grown up and I say he because he is starting to do the infamous Guinea yell, so I'm wondering now will this be okay? Will they try to mate? Should I...
Thank you very much! Does the brand of saline matter? Also, how do you give the Tylan 50, is It mixed with food or water? One more thing, should I keep them all separated until they're symptoms clear up? I'm sorry for all the questions I'm a first timer and have always loved chickens. I was...
Hi, I'm looking for some help here. I think my baby flock might have that to, what does " cull " mean? Hope I won't have to do that either whatever it is :(
Hi everyone, my grandma has a flock of about 8 guinea hens. One of the females had about 15 chicks this year and every year the others of the flock just kill them all off. Well I couldn't watch that happen this year. I went and picked 11 of them up ( they are about a week old now ) and put them...
