Yes I agree they are like children but I don’t have kids myself so unfortunately can’t use that one for work… she ended up passing, I do believe it was mareks disease, I lost 1 other barnevelder and a silver laced as well. my neighbor actually informed me he had discovered mareks in his flock a...

I will try looking down her throat when I’m home from work, she’s still standing and she can walk but I can tell she is getting weaker with her steps, she isn’t vaccinated for marked disease, I only know a bit about it from the little research I did, she’s not paralyzed at all but maybe she’s...

All my other chickens crops feel 100 percent normal, I’ve never felt something like this before, it really doesn’t make sense to me, I can’t even Feel her crop, can they get blockages in the windpipe? She’s breathing fine though, and she’s drinking water no problem, but she’s not eating nearly...

I did get her to eat some of the fermented food but she didn’t take much, her crop doesn’t seem to be filling at all, I’m going to draw on that picture you attached to show you what her windpipe is like, her droppings look green and not good this morning, it was also the first time she’s went...

I’ll attach a photo of the feed my chickens get, but I do ferment it with a scoop of black oil sunflower seed, she’s only about 28 weeks, her crop still feels empty this morning and even after she ate the eggs and yogurt but I did give her regular feed back after but she is not interested in it...

Hello everyone, Yesterday i was doing my rounds to all my flocks and noticed one of my barnevelders acting lame, not moving or drinking/eating, I put her in “hospital” and checked her out and her crop is empty but feels as if her esophagus or wind pipe is hard as a rock and curved/buldged out...

Oh darn that’s too bad! I suppose we all make mistakes though! Live and learn lol

Oh really? I think I’ll at least try putting her with the younger ones and see how it goes then, I suppose I won’t know unless I try, I mostly just don’t want to stress her out anymore, she’s had quite the night 😔

I for sure won’t be using that coop until it can be secured properly, I really thought it was, I feel dumb for even letting that happen, I found someone selling 9 week old Wyandotte’s, if I got them would they all get along since they are the same age and breed?

Well this is the first time a predator has gotten my chickens and hopefully the last, a fox dug into a coop that I had 4, 9 week old chicks in, it got 3 before waking up at 2am and going outside to find the sneaky ***** coming back for the last one. So now I have a lonely 9 week old chick, I...

That was just a photo I found online because I was not home at the time this is what his feet look like, he is completely black, but you can somewhat see the hair on his legs in the photo I’m not sure what it could be mixed with, this is the father comb

We took it out back this morning and buried it, I didn’t get any pictures I wasnt really thinking at the time, I wish I did now though!

After further inspection it also has a different comb then the hens, it looks like my roosters, but I thought his was like that because of frostbite, I’m not sure what kind maybe a cushion comb is what it looks most like, it’s legs are also hairy so idk 🤷‍♀️ I don’t think I ever will haha thanks 🙏

Thank you!! I’m going to have to get pictures when I get back home but they look like this picture I found, I really don’t think my rooster is pure anymore. The chicks comb is definitely not a single comb and it’s legs are also a bit furry, the comb actually seems like it will look like it’s dad...

The svart hatched and is doing great, 2 others have pipped last night and I checked the other one this morning because it was showing no signs of life and it was dead but fully grown and in a weird position, I’m not sure what I could have done wrong

Hello again lol we hatched our first svart egg today and it’s got 5 toes on each foot! Is this from inbreeding? I was told the rooster and 3 hens were completely unrelated… but I’m pretty sure they’re only supposed to have 4
