I know! This poor chicken has had an awful run! In the summer some predator killed four of our flock and she was hopping around afterwards so it got her too. She wouldn’t eat and just sat around for about a month. She recovered from that and then this happened!
Hi! My chicken went missing on NY’s Eve and we assumed a predator got her. My daughter found her trapped and alive in our woodpile yesterday! Alive! I guess she survived off of snow! We live in Ontario where it is very cold, I can’t believe she’s ok!
Anyone hear of chickens living off of snow...
Hi, thank you for your response.
They are about 8 months old and have been with us since 1 day old. I haven’t identified which bird it is yet. The red stuff was blood and maybe other membranes. I picked it up and it broke (was soft) and filled with yolk.
I haven’t identified any flock issues...
Hi there! This deformed egg was in the nesting box this morning. It had blood on the outside and when I picked it up it was soft and yolk came out of if. It was quite small as well. Is this a corrugated egg? It’s the closest I can find but am not sure.
Thank you!!
