I came outside to find my silkie breathing extremely loud through her beak i don’t know why does anyone know what this is? she was fine yesterday and even this morning I thought she was choking but I can’t see anything!
This is burrito her eyelid seems to be swollen and it's like bubbling. This has been happening since yesterday. This seems to be all that's wrong but I'm not sure she does seem a bit more closed off today does anyone know what's wrong ?
Yesterday my hens burritos eye lid was kinda swollen I thought she might have been pecked so didn't think much of it but today her eye is like bubbling does anyone know what this is?
They are so cute I'm already in love 😍 all 11 weeks old and pekin bantams the one on the left is munchkin the middle one is button and the right one is bumble :love
For now they are in a caged area but will soon be moved in with the rest
I noticed my rooster was limping and his foot was swollen I'm not sure but is this bumble foot or just an injury he doesn't want to put the affected foot down I've noticed
I don't know what happened this egg but there's a baby chick which should be hatching I can hear it cheaping and moving but the shell is broken will it be okay should I leave it with the mother hen or do I need to assist ?
Before and after of my new rescues 🥰 the top photo is burrito and the bottom tikka I never knew that they had changed so much until I made a before and after their combs are red their eyes look happier (if that makes sense ) their feathers are amazing burrito still has hers growing in. They are...
I haven't posted/been on here in awhile so here is some funny photos of my chickens I took today 😂 they enjoyed their treats of whipped cream And potato's that was left over
Today my duck laid her first egg. One of my drakes got in a bad fight with my rooster but they are okay it's my small hen that seems to have been badly hurt she can't move at all. Her eyes are closed she opens them a bit she can't move her legs the only things he seems to be able to control is...
Today we got some more rescues. One of them who we are gonna call tikka was very adventurous she was walking about everywhere🥰 my other hens and rooster were really good to them. Another one of my rescues I got she is cheeky😂 but was hiding like the other one who was very nervous but they will...

Fox attack got my pekin petal she is still alive thankfully but they’re is a really deep gash around her vent idk what to do her vent is really messed up. It’s 04:41am where I live right now so when the vets open should I take her because I’m freaking out I’m really scared for her
Ever since noodle hatched she had 2 wee nubs where her nails should be and now about 10 months latershe has one toenail that grew in, well grew in backwards:idunno and her other one stayed as a stump😂 I decided to post this because I’ve seen chickens with missing toenails but never with a toe...
So lately the past few days grape hasn’t been looking so good I thought that it was because she has feathers coming in but now she has been staying in the shed and not eating or drinking along with that she has like poop all over her butt. Could it be vent gleet??! Im really worried🙁
Took berry inside and me and her are tucked up under a blanket ❤😋 she is so spoiled but she deseverves to be after what she has been through (berry is a rescue hen so she used to be cooped up in dark not being able to move only lay eggs 😔 sad reality of a battery hen) but berry got rescued...
