I purchased this baby when she was 2 days old. The top tip of her vent appeared to be inside out.
I have some Vet Rx. Would that help her?
Thank you for your advise.
I have looked at pictures of both chicks... She was a day old when I got her. She has been the same solid silver color since day one. Unfortunately, I do not see any prominent muffs on her, but I did not see any prominent muffs on my Ameraucana chicks when they were days old either.
Either...
Hello all :frow
I purchased this chick along with some Silkie chicks. This chick is approximately 10 days old.
Does anyone know what is this chick’s breed and, if possible, gender?
Thank you all!!!! :jumpy
Hello all!
My Silkie chick appears to have an “outy” vent. At first, I thought my baby just had pasty butt. I have to clean her every day.
Will she grow out of this?
Thank you all for your advice.
Good afternoon all :)
I purchased one Royal Palm poult and one Broad Breasted Bronze poult along with 10 Silkie chicks from the local feed store. All were between one to three days old. They have been in the same brooder for approximately a week. Can I raise turkeys with chickens? What is...
She is eating and drinking as normal. No respiratory issues whatsoever. A respiratory issue was the first thing I checked for as I just lost an entire flock (20 chickens) to CRD. So I am extremely careful when it comes to what they are exposed to. Even to the point that I switched my new...
Good morning all,
I am a little confused and need your help. Friday evening I noticed my Ameraucana’s left eye was swollen, watery, and pretty much featherless. I have read articles advising to flush eye injuries with saline and apply Neosporin around the eye. Then other articles advise to...
Quick question...is she on a leash or restrained in any way when introduced to other dogs? If so, being restrained causes dogs to become more territorial, nervous, fearful, etc. which leads them to be more aggressive.
Thanks to everyone who posted in this thread. I have learned more here than all of my other online research combined. I am new to raising chickens. I raise them mainly for eggs and breeding with a little fun and a whole lot of love mixed in.
It saddens me that their is no cure for CRD...
They are eating DuMor Poultry Chick 20% Starter/Grower (picture attached).
Above is a picture of my brooder setup.
I change their pine shavings every one to two days and wash out their brooder weekly.
Unfortunately, I do not know they exact temperature in the brooder. I am going to purchase...
This baby started thrashing around and just stopped breathing!!!!
Is there anything I can do to ensure the other three chicks do not end up dying as well? I have no idea what caused this baby to pass away. Now I am having second thoughts on what caused the first two chicks to pass away on...
Good morning all, We purchased six Ameraucana chicks approximately two weeks ago. Unfortunately, two passed away Memorial Day. I assumed from heat stroke as I moved them outside to clean their brooder.
This morning I found a third chick very lethargic, feet cold, but still breathing. I got...
Hello all,
I am new to raising chickens. All I know is, so far, they are more entertaining than any cat or dog I have ever raised.
So...I purchased four Olive Egger chicks, hoping I hand selected hens. At least I tried to select hens based on all I have read about wing sexing...
