    Help With Breed ID PLEASE!

    You were spot on!!!! They definitely look like silver duckwing chickens based on what I’ve found online. Thats very helpful. Now time to try and rehome some cockerels.

    Help With Breed ID PLEASE!

    Got these pullets from my sister whose friend got them from a local TSC. Was told they’re ISA Brown but I have two of those and these are definitely not the same breed. Someone on Reddit told me most of these pullets are cockerels- but no breed help. They’re all 1 month or almost 1 month now. No...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    Doing a lot better. The one whose eye was injured is doing surprisingly well. His eye looks damn near normal now, but I know his vision isn’t 100% in it bc he still turns his head to see treats/food/me out of his good eye. My older roo who has been separated in my backyard is doing well, too...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    I’ve kind of been preparing myself for his vision to either be completely gone, or not 100% in his injured eye :/. Sucks but all I can really do is hope it’ll be okay. No I have no colloidal silver, but will be looking into getting it. I have this antibacterial spray for chickens that should...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    It’s at least open now today, but pupil and iris are very dim/cloudy/not easy to see. I will grab him with a towel once he’s been resting a bit tonight. I even got flogged right in the tuchus last night, so waiting, and using a towel, are going to make it much easier. I did add...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    Got them off Amazon. They’re kind of pricey, but it was worth it to me. Store on Amazon is UEncounter and I get the small size https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0CS913DB6?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    No 😭 I feel like a failure. I was only able to squirt saline solution from the dr on his eye. Is there an easier way to catch chickens that doesn’t stress them out? He started running away from me in the coop, and anytime I got hands on him, he’d try to bite me. Plus he was obviously getting...

    Indeed that is exactly what I mean. I snapped a pic of one of them using one:

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    Yes they can all see and hear each other :( I never realized that’s where the problems are coming from. I’ve had two roosters before and they NEVER fought— but I also had no hens at this time— makes sense now why they never tried each other. Usually everyone is out together and can come and go...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    I know it’s always a very last resort to dispatch for me personally but I will try to find someone who wants him and I just won’t ask any questions. Hopefully I’ll have better luck giving one of them away this time.

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    Older Roo I got when his original owner passed away, but I’ve had him more than 4 yrs now. The younger two Roos are 1 year and 2 months as of the 7th. My mature hens are 2 yrs old. The first set of pullets I have are 2 months, the second set not even 1 month old yet (they’re in the house still...

    Eye Injury to My Roo

    A little background: I had 6 mature hens and 4 roos. Outnumbered sexes due to eggs hatched by broody hen, and it took a long while to convince the person I live with to get more. I’ve had to separate the girls from the boys due to severe over mating. One of the Roos was given away, leaving me...

    What to do with roosters spurs?

    Yes that’s why I broke my roos spur off- it was hitting him in the bottom, and also rubbing up against his other leg causing raw areas :( . I like the method I shared a link to. I will try that next time. Oh yeah FYI: I saw another video using same method but they applied flour after removal to...

    3 gentle roosters in solitary bachelor pad pen, suddenly aggressive, and injuring one another.

    Please take what a lot of these other commenters have said to heart! I had 4 chicks hatch in April ‘24. 3 male, 1 female. Already had 4 hens and 1 OG roo. I kept them essentially *hoping* that my chickens would go against their ingrained behaviors, and what do you know? They did not. I’m now...

    What to do with roosters spurs?

    I’ve done it with my brother before after watching a YouTube video… lemme try to find the link… Here’s a method I did not use, but seems to be much better: Can’t find the link for the method I personally used. I used the same type of wrench, but broke the spur off of my guy being VERY...
