    Let’s play everyone’s favorite game: rooster or hen? 😂

    Okay y’all, here are the photos of the chicken. Look at the pictures before reading the back story!! Alright, so We bought this mysterious one from TSC in April of 2019. So almost 2 years ago. Sold as a California White pullet. Grew up as a pullet, no signs of rooster. It was actually the...

    Silkie listless all of a sudden

    She is doing alright. A bit more alert but still kind of out of it. We think it’s possibly coccidiosis because her poop had some red in it. Have dosed her with Corid and have some chicken formula we’re feeding her. She’s not eating or drinking herself yet so we are syringe feeding so far...

    Silkie listless all of a sudden

    Hello backyard chicken friends, one of my Silkie girls suddenly had some issues today. I’m sorry if this is long. Thank you for reading in advance. So not really sure what’s going on right now with this little one. She’s about 12 weeks old. Purchased her from Ideal Poultry a long with 2 other...

    Shiny eggs?

    Anyone know why one of my girls lays these eggs with a bit of a sheen to them? We think they’re pretty! But I hope it’s not a negative indicator. Egg on the right in pic. The egg on the left is what everyone else’s looks like. Thanks!

    Why does my hen stick her whole head in the water bowl?

    I thought of this too! She did it before it started to get really hot, but it still could be why. Oh well. I’ll let her do her thing :lol:

    Chick keeps sneezing? Allergies?

    Hi everyone! I have this about 7 week old satin silkie. The sweetest little boy ever! (dna sexed) He sneezes a LOT when he’s outside (not so much inside). We have 6 babies in his group, and we take them outside for some adventures while we’re getting their coop and run together. Every time he’s...

    Why does my hen stick her whole head in the water bowl?

    Okay y’all, this is the only chicken I have do this. Everyone else drinks water normally. This one, she dunks like her whole head in the water. Everytime!! It’s pretty funny honestly. Can anyone explain why?? We don’t have ducks and have never had them! Maybe she identifies as a duck? :p I wish...

    Prairie Bluebell Egger

    We finally got our blue/green eggs and I agree with you. They are beautiful but really the personality and level of production is more important. Luckily our Easter Egger has been producing her little eggs quite well and she’s a total sweetheart :love. I want an Orpington so bad! What sweet...

    Hen lethargic, fluffed feathers, poop very green (poop pic warning)

    Thank you so much. We were wondering if it was related to her reproductive system, but since she’s gone so long without issue we figured it’s gastrointestinal related. We are keeping her comfortable and isolated. Hopefully things will turn out and nothing spread to the rest of our ladies :fl

    Hen lethargic, fluffed feathers, poop very green (poop pic warning)

    Hello everyone! I have a hen who is one year old and as of yesterday she has been acting a bit funny. She’s usually top dog and lets everyone know it. *A little back story* She has not laid since September. She began laying in late August. One day she laid a soft egg and has not laid since. She...

    Any ideas on what breed? Was sold to me as Prairie Bluebell Egger.

    Hey everyone! Just wondering if you guys could ID this lady for me. Not laying yet, about 6 months old. Bought her as a Prairie Bluebell Egger, but after doing lots of researching, she looks like a Partridge Chantecler! Her comb is still flat but looks like it’s gonna be a cushion comb. I know...

    Speckled Sussex. About 10 weeks, tell me it’s not a roo

    Oh wow!! Interesting! I wonder if it is common in this breed. Her issues started out with her neck twisting (like wry neck) but then progressed to her being completely limp in just a day and thought she was going to die. We thought it was Marek’s and so did the vet, but I decided to provide...

    Speckled Sussex. About 10 weeks, tell me it’s not a roo

    Yeah, we think she might be mixed with something as well. She has gone through a bit of health issues through all of this, first coccidiosis, then some crazy neurological issue happened to her (no idea what it was and neither did the vet! but she recovered well.) and we think her growth may have...

    Speckled Sussex. About 10 weeks, tell me it’s not a roo
