I have this sweet baby that hatched yesterday and doesn't use her leg. She kinda hobbies around. It does not stay laid out behind her but curled up. Is this a slipped tendon I can fix quickly?

I am treating my flock with ivermectin for mites and I know there is a washout period but why? I know people took ivermectin during covid so is it the amount that is different and not good for you? Or is it basically the same and we are just getting the ivermectin through the eggs if we eat them??

I have a silkie that I'm not sure exactly how old she is but over a year. I bought her as an adult hen and have had her for about 3 months at least. She has always been a faithful layer since I have had her without any issues at all. Last week or the week before she laid like 3 soft eggs. I...

I have 2 eggs that I thought might be fertilized. I popped them in the incubator on Sunday. This is where they are. I'm thinking not fertilized, but I am new to having a roo and eating eggs with a roo around. Anyway... could I eat them if I have had them in the incubator for 5 days? Just not...

I have a 1.5yo barred rock that hasn't really been laying for a few months now (that I know of. I have only one other chicken and I get an egg every few days and sometimes can go a week or more without an egg but I"m pretty sure it is not the barred rock laying). She has been sleeping int he...

I have a 1yo Americauna that is underweight and has been for a while. She eats well (they are free range and we offer layer crumble as well) while free ranging but I haven't paid attention enough to watch her eating. She laid as recently as yesterday. A couple months ago, my husband found her...

I have a RIR hen that is a little over a year. We had 3 other different breed chickens but lost them to different things. My RIR is the only one left. She laid eggs daily until about Nov or Dec then only laid every other day or maybe every 2 days, but we were still getting anywhere from 3-4 eggs...

My Americauna (although I don't think she is exactly that breed) started acting really strange today. Very lethargic, her wings seem to be droopy, she wants to just lay around mostly. This started earlier in the week I believe, but I thought she was just sitting outside. Today it is a lot worse...

I think one of my 4 chickens has fowl pox and 2 of the others are showing the spots on the waddles too. The 4th has a small waddles so it is harder to visualize any pox. Any advice on how to treat/deal with this?? They are free range chickens and I heard sunshine and space helps so that's should...

Hi all! My name is Hayley and I live in Wylie, TX. I recently got 4 hens (Rhode Island Red, Golden Sex Link, Americauna, and a Buff Orpington) in March at 2 weeks old (ish). My sex link just laid her first egg yesterday! My girls are so fun and I love having these girls around! We also currently...

I was sold this beauty as an Americauna but I've been researching and some posts on here make me think it might be an Easter Egger. Also, will her comb get bigger like my sex link or will it stay small? My sex link just started laying and all 4 of my girls are supposed to be about the same age...
