    Normal poop/vent?

    Hello everybody! I hope everybody is staying warm. I was out with my chickens today and noticed a very dark dropping. Didn’t think much of it until I saw one of the chickens vent dirty. Not too much but I know they should be clean. So what do you guys think? I’m not sure who did the dropping in...

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    Hey guys! It’s been a while but I wanted to update you on Peabody (changed the name since I have a feeling it’s actually a hen). So I’ve been slowly introducing Peabody to the rest of the flock with him in a separate cage outdoors while the others are walking around. But I noticed some weird...

    No I haven’t taken him outside but where the sun was shining through the light he decided to sunbathe. It was very cute

    Thanks for the suggestions! It gets hot sometimes but recently we had a lot of rain which brought chilly temps. Maybe that’s it but I do feel like the posture has been in cold and hot temps.

    I did hold some food up but he moved his whole body with its head to look up. And I’m here in Alabama so the weather is cold and hot randomly

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    Hello friends! So Peabo has been doing very well in regards to walking! But I noticed he looks a little different. I will post before (when I first got him) and after (how he looks now) pics. I feel like his chest is protruding too much. It could be his crop since he’s developed a little...

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    I think it is bumblefoot but a mild case of it. There was brownish stuff on its toes as well but now both his feet are clean and clear except on the middle of his right foot.

    Hello! He/she has been doing good! It’s really gotten used to me and and is so sweet 😊. My only issue is still its right leg. Still limping a little so I’ve been wrapping it and stuff.

    Going strong! Its injury on the back side is healing up nicely. What I’m trying to treat is its right foot. If it heals he’ll be good as new!

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    I think I’m going to keep it next to my flock in its own separate area and hopefully have him/her roost at night with them in a separate section I have that’s not being used. And of course if I see that it’s suffering I will not prolong its suffering.

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    Yes I did think about that and read somewhere else where what you said is explained. Therefore I was determined for my husband or father in law to humanely put him to sleep as described in my chicken chick book but the more I took care of it and how lively it has been has changed my mind. I will...

    Help! Found a poor chicken that fell off a poultry truck

    Yea I think it’s about 6 weeks. I already have a rooster and he’s not very nice. Idk if Cornish cross roosters can get mean or are they different because of their genetics?
