    Has my hen lost her eye, or is this something potentially full flock serious?

    Has my hen lost her eye, or is this something potentially full flock serious?

    Here are some more pictures- SHE STILL HAS HER EYE! :celebrate We're going to go get some more sterile saline for cleaning and compresses and I've got Terramycin eye ointment on its way- hooray for next day shipping, right? Something good that has come out of this is Lenore has always been one...

    Has my hen lost her eye, or is this something potentially full flock serious?

    Also, in the video those poor chooks had GINORMOUS swollen eyes, her's is flush with her skull and kind of sunken in. I'll get a bunch more pictures in the morning. Thank you!

    Has my hen lost her eye, or is this something potentially full flock serious?

    Thank you for the advice! I don't mind "icky" at all, I just want my gals to be happy and healthy. One thing that sort of makes me nervous is it seems like anytime I've seen in a forum an eye injury, everyone starts screaming "CORYZA! OMG!" and it makes me scared for the rest of my flock! Could...

    Has my hen lost her eye, or is this something potentially full flock serious?

    This is our Ameracuana, Lenore. She is 7 months old and healthy aside from our obvious problem. I noticed this afternoon that Lenore's eye is just... gone? Looking at the pictures, does it seem to you all like she's just lost an eye? I know, it's not JUST an eye, but I mean instead of something...

    Is this Bumblefoot?!

    Thank you for your advice! At least it'll be easy to keep her off of it/keep it clean with her glued to the nest. Gah, things like bumblefoot freak me right OUT! I had no idea it was a thing. :eek:

    Is this Bumblefoot?!

    No. It feel like a hard scab. She isn't limping or acting overly in pain or anything- actually she's sitting a nest right now! 😂

    Is this Bumblefoot?!

    Hi, I was wanting some advice- this is our black cochin bantam. She's 1 year old and in great health. She has not been limping or acting out of sorts at all. I make it a practice to check our flocks' feet every few weeks as they are free range and I want to head off any problems. Everything is...

    Chick ID help! We have an interloper!

    Oh, also we got her on Saturday (3 days ago) so I'm guessing she's 6-7 days old?

    Should I move my broody hen to another coop to sit on eggs?

    Hey everyone, I wanted to do an update! So Rita hatched her one lonely egg, and we snuck in some babies the next day! They are a happy little family blissfully occupying the bungalow.

    Chick ID help! We have an interloper!

    Hey there! I succumbed to the siren song of peeping chicks at Farm and Home and came home with chicks. 😂 So the chick in question was supposed to be a cinnamon queen (my son picked her out, her name is Jasper) but looking around the internet- this does not look like a cinnamon queen. There were...

    Weird egg question!

    Oof, I hope it wouldn't be regular! My poor girl! 😂 She's the sweetest little thing, so patient with the kids and follows me all around "just hanging out" as my son says.

    Weird egg question!

    We're NEW (in our first year) at the whole chicken owning thing, so please bear with me. So here's my weird question- could a bantam have laid the middle egg in the picture? My Silver laced Wyandotte lays the darker brown egg in the picture, so I don't think it's hers, my other two standard...

    Should I move my broody hen to another coop to sit on eggs?

    Aw. Thank you! This little bungalow is like Fort Knox, and I made a little ladder so they can go up and down. Dob you think she'll be lonely or too cold on her own?

    Should I move my broody hen to another coop to sit on eggs?

    Oh trust me, I HATE this coop. We're starting our build for the new, proper coop in the next few weeks. Chalk it up to beginner chicken owners (which we are) learning as we go (which we're doing). We're in our first year and it's definitely been a steep learning curve for me. Thankfully the...

    Should I move my broody hen to another coop to sit on eggs?

    Hi everyone! So Rita (bantam Silkie/buff Cochin cross) has decided to become a screeching pancake. I don't mind if she wants to set eggs, but I'm at a loss of what to do to make her successful. We have our pre-made coop that everyone uses, but I also acquired a very small coop/maybe a rabbit...

    It's me again... lonely baby chick?

    Aww! That's so exciting! Good luck to you and your little guys!

    It's me again... lonely baby chick?

    You know, that's an absolute possibility. I'm definitely going to check that out! I've kind of been thrown into this whole chick hatching thing. The little guy is alllllll fluffed out and snuggling his punkin. I just hope he'll get some pals to snuggle as well!
