    You are so very welcome, I truly hope this helps her turn the corner. If you have a moment in the coming days, can you let me know how things are going?

    Lethargic, withdrawn chicken

    Oyster shell is a great source of calcium...is that what you mean by shell grit? I noticed you are from Australia...do you have Tums available to buy over the counter?

    Five week old black copper maran

    I completely understand...I had 2/5 supposedly sexed chicks turn out to be roos and it broke our hearts to have to re-home then since by law we are not allowed to have them :(

    Lethargic, withdrawn chicken

    It sounds like you are doing all the right things...given her history of being smaller, less robust than your other chickens, it sounds like a case of failure to thrive, with maybe something else going on that is causing her to decline more rapidly. Chickens sometimes don’t show obvious signs...

    Five week old black copper maran

    Yeah...that amount of comb + the fact that it’s red in color in a 5 week old definitely points to a roo, sorry!

    Weird bump on tail

    It does look like a follicle cyst of some sort. These can be lanced by someone who knows what they are doing, but unless the entire cyst sac is removed—it will keep coming back.

    Definitely too young, sorry!

    Hen or Roo?

    Sorry, but they are both too young to be sexed accurately. Give them a few weeks (esp the Frizzle) and check back with new pics :)

    Question about chicks moving into the coop

    We just did this with our flock...moved our 6 week RIR chicks from brooder to coop. We felt like it was too hot to make them stay in the coop until they “got it.” We also have an attached run and let them out in that during the day. It took about a week of us manually putting them inside the...
