I awakened to find my main coop and adjacent shed had burned in the night. We lost 12 adolescent tolbunt polish, 20 babies, and 15 adults. 2 singed slikies, 3 polish, and 2 banies made it out alive. The survivors and lethargic with singed feathers and some wounds. I would greatly appreciate any...

A raccoon partially got into my coop. Out of 45 chickens I only lost two and my Polish hen, Sweetie, has a serious beak injury. She is alert and active, but separated and in the house. I'm feeding her a paste of rooster booster, chicken food, and mealworms sure with syringe. She's losing weight...

We've lost 4 hens in the past 4 months to a predator. Our hens live in a coop, raised 3 feet off the ground. Once, we found a place that the fencing had been chewed through and we repaired it. I can't figure out how they are getting in but suspect that something was able to pry the door open...

I have a broody silkie who has been trying to hatch a clutch of eggs for about a month. I want to give her some chicks. This worked well with her last year. I'm looking on Craiglist for people who have very young pullets. The youngest I've been able to find this week is about 10 days old. Does...

I've got a lovely flock of chickens and would like to branch out to ducks. I'm considering Runner Ducks or Muscovies. I don't know as much about ducks as chickens and am hoping for advice. I just moved to a home with a large pond. Lots of wild ducks and geese stop by everyday. I want to start...

I have some hens who needs to put on some weight. The vet diagnosed one with worms and now they all are recovering after finising their wormer. I'd really like to see them pu ton some weight, though. Does anyone have any advice for helping a flock of 20? Thanks!

Beautiful and very friendly long-tailed rooster. He was born 4/22/11 from eggs I bought from BYC from Onagadori. He is a wonderful sweet heart who gets along with the other hens and roos. He eats from my hand and doesn't fuss when I pick him up. He also runs up and greets me whenever I go near...

Does anyone know a good online source for meal worms? I use them when a chicken is looking too thin or getting over being sick. I have about 50 chickens, so this comes up more than I would like. We had some bad mites this year and even though they were dusted regularly, they ended up not eating...

I have a 19-week old Americauna who I just noticed has a dislocated wing. I just found a site that showed me how to properly wrap it against her body. I'm at work and will do so as soon as I get home. She is currently separated from the flock and in a cage in the house by herself with food and...

I have a beautiful phoenix roo - free to a good home. He is sweet and gorgeous pet quality silver phoenix. I just have too many roos and would love to keep him but I can't. I hatched him from eggs I bought from Onagadori on BYC. He was born 4/22/11. He gets along great with the other boys and...

I have a beautiful Sultan roo who needs a loving home. He's a great boy - not aggressive and will run to you for treats. He was hatched the 24th of April. He has been growing up with his brothers and sisters and getting along just fine. I'm only rehoming him because I had a hatch of sultans that...

I'd like to keep a supply of medications that I might need for my chickens. I have Wazine and Amprol. I had a chicken with a respiratory infection recently and treated her with some antibiotics that I had left over from a vet visit and it worked. The yellow powder antibiotics that I had from TSC...

Can anyone tell me how to ship a chicken? I live in Massachusetts and may need to ship a chicken to Missouri. Is there a special way to ship live animals or a special box I need to get? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks so much!!

I have wanted a frizzled polish pullet or hen for a long time. I hatched many polish eggs this spring but had no luck finding a frizzle. I'm will to travel in New England or pay for shipping. Thanks so much!! Kahni

I had a wonderful hatch of sultans this spring, but unfortunately, 7 of the 8 hatched are boys. I'm lucky to have a very large space for them with plenty of room for more. Since I have plenty of boys I'm hoping to find female sultans to add. I'm willing to travel almost anywhere in New England...

A friend sent me the following message. I don't know what to tell her. Please help. I would very much appreciate any insight! A couple of weeks ago, we lost our Phoenix chicken. She was fine in the morning, but by the afternoon she couldn’t stand, and she had watery white poop so we brought...

I have a 1 1/2-year old polish hen. Her name is Clover. Clover is a family pet and the closest chicken-member of our family. I got her from a neighbor whose flock was attacking her because she can't walk. She also can't be placed with my flock because of the same problem. She has severe problems...
