    Help! Came Home to Bloody Chick in Brooder

    This afternoon I came home to 2 of my baby chicks struggling for life. One's head is all bloody, I'm assuming it got pecked to death. The other does not appear to have any open wounds, but she just keeps falling over backwards. What happened? What is wrong with them? Can I save the one who keeps...

    Mille Fleur d'Uccle

    I'm in the process of selecting my new baby chicks! I'm soo excited!!!! I've always wanted a/some Mille Fleur d'Uccle's as they are so gosh darn cute! As I'm researching though, it appears they may only come in bantam size. Is this true? I'm not a fan of the bantams as I prefer normal egg size...

    Is She Moulting? Or Sick?

    I think so but not entirely sure... how do I tell? There’s some that look “broken”, are those new ones sprouting instead? She looks like shit basically lol, in the “I partied too hard” way!! Haha

    Is She Moulting? Or Sick?

    I've only been having 3-4 girls lay on average (I can only tell of 1 that is consistent). I'm PRETTY SURE she has not been laying any eggs for the past month or so, but I'm not entirely positive. She is a Welsummer so I can usually tell her eggs apart from the rest. However, she sometimes lays...

    Is She Moulting? Or Sick?

    Newish chicken momma here - I've noticed my girl, Yellow Legs, is looking a little scruffy around the neck the past couple of days. Of course, she's the only one who won't let me catch her! Tonight I finally checked her while putting them to bed. I wasn't entirely sure if she was looking funny...

    I'm Happy She's Laying Eggs.... But in the Rabbit Coop?!?!

    I have a pullet that is 26 weeks old this week. She decided to lay her first egg yesterday. In the rabbit house none the less... I have 7 pullets. She is the LAST one to start laying out of them all. Everybody else uses the nesting boxes as they should. I believe she is the last of the pecking...

    I keep hearing the egg laying song....

    We had our first broken egg today :th lucky hubby was home to hear her singing then went out to check. I’ve seen her somewhat freak out on the boxes before so I think she somehow kicked the egg to the floor outside the box. I told hubby today we need to get them more secured so that doesn’t...

    I keep hearing the egg laying song....

    Got two fake eggs and the rest plastic golf balls in every box :) today when I caught her in the nest singing I was actually changing out the coop. She keep pecking at the fake brown egg. At first I thought she was trying to roll it under her and I got excited I may have a broody.... but the...

    I keep hearing the egg laying song....

    I’m so impatient I just can’t wait!! And soo chicken obsessed I can’t wait to see what shade of brown she lays. As a chick my Plymouth Rock had prolapsed vent and I had to push it back in 3 times. Is she likely to lay do you think?

    I keep hearing the egg laying song....

    But I haven’t found any eggs from this pullet yet. Is she laying? Or just practicing her beautiful song? I have one leghorn who just started laying a week ago. One time when I caught my NH Red singing, my leghorn was sitting right next to her (all the others foraging). I think she was there for...

    I Want A Rooster.

    That's why I'm doing my homework; 'I want' does not constitute a reason. I want to know if this if something I am willing to take on prior to doing so. I've heard some breeds are better than others as well and if roo's are hatched I would keep them also. If they became aggressive, I have a few...

    What type of predator would take her away without leaving a trace?

    Missing A Chicken?! :'(

    We are out in the middle of no where off a private road with little to no traffic. I noticed a few odd behaviors following today’s event. One of my top girls was “up my butt”. Was the first to run over to me every time she saw me and she usually isn’t. The flock leader was outside the coop door...

    Missing A Chicken?! :'(

    We don’t have any roosters and we haven’t found any eggs yet. They just turned 18 weeks on Tuesday. They are completely free range when we are home. We were about to leave to get a pizza, but that’s when we noticed she was “missing” and not concerned at that point. We looked around in the usual...

    Missing A Chicken?! :'(

    I think I already know the answer.... but they don't just wander do they? She's been missing for about the past four hours and I just put my other girls to bed as it's getting dark here. Something got her though, didn't it? :hit
