Saturday morning I had a chick get stuck on one of those sticky mouse traps. Luckily I was able to get her off but not before the chick had pulled multiple feathers out of her chest and having to clip off some feathers from its wings due to the amount of glue that wouldn’t come off. She was...
From what I can tell she hasn’t been getting picked on, but we did have and are still currently having some really crazy weather and tornadoes and storms. I’m wondering if they all got really nervous and riled up and she accidentally got injured last night. I’ll continue to keep an eye her...
Do you know if I can use these products? It says for “all animals” and seen someone say they’ve used this brand before but didn’t specify what product it was.and if so is it worth getting both or just one?
I just got chicks a little over a week ago. They’re been doing great! But I went to check on them this morning and I noticed one of my chicks eye looked funny. She’s has it somewhat squinted, it looks like it’s been leaking some sort of fluid and it’s dried around her eye. I have a picture of...
Oh perfect that’s good to know. I may go get some of that today then! Body armour is actually like a hydration drink for people, it’s got lots of vitamins and in its made with coconut water. But I had never heard anyone using it for chicks before
I have recently gotten new baby chicks. I was looking into some vitamins or electrolytes to give them, when I ran across a video of someone saying they mix body armour with water to give to their chicks as electrolytes. Has anyone else done this? Does it work? It’s okay to do? Thanks!

I have a small flock of 9 barred rock hens and I wanted to get a rooster for them! My boyfriends mom found one for me and I just picked it up yesterday. I’m not quite sure this is a roo but more likely a pullet! I also don’t know his age🙁 The lady didn’t tell us how old it is. If anyone could...
I had seen where some recommended to go back to starter feeds. Is that the route I should go? Or just continue to give them the feed I am, but minus the corn
I have posted some pictures, I do have one or two hens who do run the bunch so that is a VERY possible explanation. They sleep in their coop durning the night, but other than that they are out at all other times. Doing as they please. I did just get a cockerel yesterday (what I hope is one...
