    Paralyzed?

    And one leg seems to have more feeling than the other, tried moving his joints around and everything seems to move freely with no pain response but he’s not even trying to stand.

    Paralyzed?

    Hello, I had a predator attack 2 days ago. Missing 8, 1 left dead and this poor little guy who I found on his side in sad shape. I put him in a plastic tub with access to heat water and chick food. I fully expected him to be dead within 24 hours but here he is flapping his wings, drinking water...

    Can a Tom protect his hen while she is setting

    Update: added my 4 week old poults to gen pop with fencing that they can pop back and forth through for protection and everyone is getting along great!

    Crossbeak help!!!

    Same as the last poster, my sweetest prettiest out of 18 chicks that I thought I could nurse through, gave extra help and bonded with passed at about 12 weeks. Especially hard for me as I got these chicks shortly after my beloved dog died unexpectedly from a genetic neurological disorder. The...

    Can a Tom protect his hen while she is setting

    One more question or perhaps just an observation, my Tom stood up straight and stretched and I noticed all of his chest feathers are missing, plucked clean like a broody hen does. I don’t think my hen is missing nearly as many as him. I had read someone else’s post that their Tom did the same...

    Can a Tom protect his hen while she is setting

    That’s great to know too, I have 6 that are 2 weeks old that I incubated in case her hatch doesn’t go well. They are in a stock tank at the moment, i figured in another week or so I will move them to a spare enclosure that should be sufficient until they are 6 weeks or so. Then they will have to...

    Can I mix 10x 1-day old chicks with my 10x 7-day old chicks in the same brooder ?

    When last I commingled the same age spread there was some initial pecking so I put a little fencing scrap in between the 2 groups. Within 5 mins the smaller ones found a gap and were running back and forth. They had a safe space to escape the bigger ones and within a few hours everyone was used...

    Can a Tom protect his hen while she is setting

    Thanks so much for the response, I had read that too but was hoping my guy might be an exception to the rule lol. I went ahead and enclosed her maternity suite with a faux gate just to be safe. Excited for her babies, she’s sitting on 16 eggs and she was from a batch of 15 so fingers crossed we...

    Can a Tom protect his hen while she is setting

    First time with a brooding turkey hen. For background we started with 8 straight run, only had 1 female and kept 1 male, luckily both her favorite and mine. They seem like a bonded pair although I don’t know if that’s a thing with turkeys. She is approximately 1 week out from hatch and has a...

    I thought maybe the temperature was too low? It’s been cold and we don’t keep our house at a constant temp. It’s in the warmest room and I cover it at night but my hygrometer is often showing a degree or even 2 lower than optimal

    Everything Easter Egger

    I love my EEs! I just hatched a batch of all green eggers today! 2nd pic also shows an olive egger, cuckoo marans, and lavender marans. The marans barely tolerate me, a few of the EEs would love to be house pets. The red and gray rooster will let you hold him and is a guest favorite, the black...

    LATE eggs (leftover from hatch) *HELP*

    I have been in your situation and have read its bad to help but I couldn’t bear it and when they were a full 24 hours past the last hatch I spent 3 hours pipping and zipping. The first time it was 2 eggs out of 13, the second time it was 1 out of 7. All 3 chicks are alive and clucking, I have 2...
