Was told it was a wyandotte but the comb tells me otherwise. EE maybe? Also told she was a female. What do y'all think? :hmm

I am raising two squabs, one of which is not prospering as well as it's sibling. Started with crop slow down then moved into breathing issues. Visited a vet who prescribed something for possible candida and respiratory infection (Tribressen and Nystatin). Recently ordered a four in one for...

I'm back with another sexing question, anyone have any good guesses? I currently don't have a roo but one of my hens went broody on me, got her some fertile hatching eggs (buff orph, barred rock, and possible eastereggers maybe a midsummer mix,) stuck em under her, with a hatch rate of 5 put of...

I bought six hatching eggs from a homestead nearby to humor my broody hen (buff orph) and she hatched out five healthy chicks last night. (One made it to day 19-20 and called it quits:() I was told these eggs came from barred rock, buff Orpington, and Americauna. Anyone have any ideas on who is...

Starting a thread for Florida quail owners! Hello!! :)

I am looking for a fairly friendly quail roo near Sarasota FL. My roo has recently passed and the flock seems distraught. He was the only roo in my flock of 3 (I know, pretty measly). Flock age is roughly 1 yr. Roo past of natural causes.

My Coturnix Quail hen was accidentally fed putrid mealworms! Some canned mealworms (mealworms canned in juice from petstore for birds and reptiles) had been left out for a few days at least and a nephew got a hold of them and fed them to the quail! These worms were pretty bad. I fear the...

I have a roughly 10 wk old cochin chick, I am stumped on gender, they're much smaller than the other chicks and a slow growth rate. I'm starting to wonder if they're a bantam breed?

Found some anti itch spray at local pet store, want to know if y'all think it will be safe for chickens and other poultry? Need anti itch solution fast!

I awoke this morning to find my Tibetan Coturnix hen scalped! A horrific sight, made my heart stop opening the coop to see such a thing. She was cuddled in the corner drinking water trying to stay hydrated.... I have seperated her from the rest of the flock, (a roo and 2 other hens) and she is...

I have what I think are two young hens, (Buff Orphington+Barred Brahma about 6 wks old) but as worried as I am I'm always second guessing! We have one roo and no room for another, any guesses?

New chicks received from a retired flock owner. Any one know the sex or breed? The second chick is about half the size of the first. I believe they are close in age. Possible roo? Both have feathered feet!

First-time quail parent! I recently received 5 baby Coturnix quails. All were good and well until this morning. one of my three-day-old chicks was lethargic along with rapid breathing and watery white/clearish poop! she does not put in the effort to eat and all chicks have been on save a chick...

My favorite chookie, and I’m curious and can’t seem to figure it out. They are nearly nine weeks old and is the sweetest thing. I have another hen who is the same age and is a very obvious hen, but with this one I can’t seem to come up with a definitive answer.... what do you all think? :/
