    Strange White Feathers in Mediterranean and Continental Breeds

    The odd thing is, I have a boy who's only a year old, and the white feathers are still there.

    Strange White Feathers in Mediterranean and Continental Breeds

    Hello, I have been breeding poultry for the past decade, and I have never seen anything like this. I acquired my lines of White Faced Black Spanish, La Fleche, and Crevecour from credible breeders who have been doing this for far longer than I have been. Throughout numerous generations, I have...

    Turkey with a Vent Prolapse

    I should also mention that she keeps acting like she is trying to push something out, even though the prolapse is already out. I don't feel an egg when she does this, but she has been laying eggs way smaller than normal.

    Turkey with a Vent Prolapse

    Hi. Last week I discovered my eight-year-old narragansett hen had a vent prolapse. I went through the procedure of repeatedly pushing the prolapse back inside, and it hasn't stayed in on its own over the past seven days. I have kept her in the dark, and she has passed two eggs--both the size of...

    Hen has severe eye issue, antibiotics not responding

    First question: Are the eyeballs are still in there? I had a rooster loose an eye when he escaped and got in a fight with another rooster, and it looked exactly like that. I would try to give her Vet RX in her water and continue to rinse her eyes with the antibiotic. This is a very dangerous...

    Help! Serious Chicken Head Injury!

    I found one of my hens badly beat up by two of my turkey hens. I have removed her from the coop and she is currently in an old brooder in the dark, and I moved my turkey hens to an empty coop to ensure they won't attack any more chickens. The hen, a Splash Marans, has lost all of her comb and...

    Help Me Identify This Chicken Breed!

    She won't stay still long enough for a good picture. I think that she might be a Black Sexlink or a Norfolk Grey. Thank you so much for your help.

    Help Me Identify This Chicken Breed!

    A chicken showed up in my yard and I don't know what kind she is. She looks like a Welsummer, but she has a black body. She laid a pink egg. Any idea what kind she might be?

    Chick With Injured Leg!!

    Here is an update on how he is doing (we just recently discovered it is a roo). He can walk fine now but is just a little smaller than the other chicks. He is a little younger than them, so we're not too worried. I'm not sure what happened, but I'm really glad he is okay. Thank you all for...

    Chick With Injured Leg!!

    She is perfectly fine!:) I don't know what happened, but she was very sticky from the membrane. I think that her fluff was stuck to her leg and she couldn't walk. I wiped her off with a warm rag and she is fluffed up and playing with the other chicks. I don't have much luck with chicks, so I'm...

    Chick With Injured Leg!!

    She is able to kick both legs and she can walk a little. She had to be assisted hatching because she was stuck in the membrane. I had to help my oldest Roo hatch and he is fine. She keeps flipping over and she can't stay the right way very long. She always ends up upside-down. What can I do for...

    Chick With Injured Leg!!

    So, I have this French Black Copper Marans chick that had issues hatching. Once it hatched, I noticed that it doesn't seem to be able to pull one of her legs under her. Is it a slipped tendon? Is it broken? It's not splayed leg or curly toe. I have attached a picture. She just hatched a little...

    What is the chances of getting a Black Copper Marans If I breed Blue Marans?

    Hi! I was wondering what the chance would be of getting a Black Marans if I breed two Blue Marans together? Could I get a splash or would they stay blue? Thanks, Turkey Girl

    Rooster with REALLY Bad Vent Gleet!

    We just realized him hiding away from the flock yesterday, so I'm not sure how long it's been. I think he has been drinking, but I can't be sure.

    Rooster with REALLY Bad Vent Gleet!

    He is away from the rest of the flock. We used Corid on all of our birds, but he is the only one not getting better. Thank you for your help!

    Rooster with REALLY Bad Vent Gleet!

    My nine-week-old French Black Copper Marans Roo has not been looking good. He had Coccidiosis a few weeks ago and has been treated. Yesterday we noticed that he has a bunch of yellowish-white stuff stuck to the vent feathers. We quarantined him away from the flock. He's not eating and isn't...

    Chicken with Yellow Crust on His Comb

    I'll get some. It could be egg-eating from the last owner, but he hasn't seen any hens or roos since we got him, because we are keeping him separate for about a week so I'm not sure. Thank you for your help!
