    Rooster eye injury

    Hello! Yesterday two of my roosters got into it and one ended up with an eye injury. He’s acting normal, crowing, perching and still dancing for his ladies. I plan to take him to the vet once I’m off of work but is there anything I can do for him in the meantime? The first picture is how it...

    White/grey hairs growing on hens head

    After googling both, she may be a mixture of both? Either way, she has these cute little earmuffs or sideburns that I think are so cute! 🥰

    White/grey hairs growing on hens head

    I’m not sure. I adopted her from a feed store and they didn’t have much information. Any guesses?

    White/grey hairs growing on hens head

    Hello, This is Annie. She’s anywhere between 1.5-2 years old. I noticed the top of her head is growing white/silver hairs. She was molting a few months ago but has been growing them back. She eats, drinks and poops normal. She also perches, forages and roams around normal. Any idea why she’d be...

    5-week old chick with scissor beak

    Hello! Long story short, I ended up with a 5-week old silkie that has scissor beak. I have absolutely no idea how to maneuver through this. I didn’t even know what scissor beak was until today. I know there’s no cure and it’s going to take an extra amount of care to keep this baby alive. I...

    Ear infection? Mites?

    Great, thank you very much for your response. I brought him to the vet just to be safe and to get an overall health check on him. I will continue with the treatment for lice on all of them.

    Ear infection? Mites?

    Hello, My rooster has been shaking his head side to side a few times since yesterday. He’s also been scratching at his ear with his nails and because of it, I believe he cut the bottom of his comb because he has a scab there now and dried blood right below on his feathers behind his head. I...

    Chicken lice?

    Great, thank you! So I just did it this past Monday. Would Sunday be too soon? It’s easier for me to get things done on the weekend.

    Chicken lice?

    Yes, they have a few places in their coop that they dig up to dust bath. And there’s a few holes in the yard that they also like.

    Chicken lice?

    Good morning, I found what I assume to be chicken lice on my rooster. The picture I attached isn’t of my rooster but that’s what it looks like. It wasn’t an infestation and didn’t look like some of the horrifying pictures I’ve seen online, just a few behind his neck, chest area and near his...

    Bald spots on hens

    Hi there! I have two hens who have bald spots behind their head. It’s from my rooster holding on to them when he mounts them. Then I have a third hen who does not have a bald spot on her head but instead has a bald spot on each side of her near her wing. This looks like the area where my rooster...

    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    Hello! I started on this page two years ago with my rooster Dottie. Fast forward to now and I have a flock of 6. They’re the best part of my day.

    Chicken run bedding

    Any suggestions what the sneezing can be from? I know you said it could very well be the dust in the coop but I’m afraid it could be something more. Any signs or symptoms to look out for? And if something more than dust related, any medicines/remedies you can recommend? My run is also double...
