I was able to see her vent. No maggots or bugs of any kind but her vent looked.... bigger. I don’t know how to describe it. May need to take a pic of that too

She’s maybe 3yrs old? Hard to keep track to be honest. I have so many and at this very time, there’s no way I can afford a vet visit. I don’t know what to do but I definitely don’t want her to suffer

Y’all she’s extremely boney. I don’t know what to do or what this is but omg it stinks!

I just uploaded some pics. I got her to peck a little at her food and drink a little

I’m thinking it’s the heat since all this started when it got SUPER hot outside. I know they have no mites or lice. We always check them and clean out there coop every weekend (scraping poop out, new bedding in the boxes) and we always dust everything and every chicken with DE

I haven’t been able to give her a full once over. When you pick her up she just pulls all her body together and makes it impossible to check her out. But she stinks? Like any parent that’s ever had a child with a stomach virus will know the smell I’m talking about. Smells like rotting trash and...

Hey y’all. For the past few days, one of my hens has been acting strangely. She would constantly sit out in the run near the waterer but wouldn’t move. Her poop has been extremely runny. Yesterday afternoon my rooster tried to kill her and she just laid there taking it. I took her out and...

Thank you!! My husband and eight year old got it out while I held her with my eyes shut tight lol. I couldn’t do it! Didn’t help that after wards my husband thought it would be funny to THROW the puss ball at me . I also didn’t know I could have been making saline right here at home! Definitely...

Also it was still a bit swollen so we couldn’t see her eye. Hoping in the next few days to see her doing better

There was no foul odor and we will be getting some cream and solution here soon. All we had on hand was penicillin so we used that

So it wasn’t all goopy. It was just a ball of puss

Thank you! I’ll look in to it

just noticed that one of my pullets has an engorged eye! Can someone please tell me what this is, how it could have happened and what in the world do I do about it!?

so my hen FRESHLY laid an egg right in front of me. When she left, I picked up the egg. The egg LOOKS cracked but isn’t.... is this ok?

Has any one cross bred a dark Cornish hen? I’m dying to know what the mixed chicks look like

We don’t know what to do with him. We have huge hearts and cannot just kill him. But at the same time I feel like I’m doing him wrong being where he’s at

I had two roosters in the beginning. Falcon and his brother nugget who never fought and did share the hens. They each had their own hens. About maybe 10-11 each. Our coop and run is big enough for at least 50 chickens all together with them still having ample space. The hens we have now were...

we just introduced a new rooster into our flock. We only have 4 hens and pullets that are not of age. We knew the new rooster (foghorn leghorn) and our rooster (falcon) were gonna fight it out. (We were watching to make sure they weren’t in any danger) well foghorn won and falcon definitely is...
