    We get variations of light brown eggs and some blueish greens and light pinks. Eventually I’d love to add more color to our egg collection! Thank you!

    Meet our chickens!

    In March and April of 2024 we got our very first chicks from tractor supply. We got 2 Wyandottes, 2 Black Australorps, and 2 Buff Orpingtons. A month later we wanted to expand our small flock and got 4 Araucanas and prayed at least one would be a rooster, one was in fact a rooster and then we...

    Thank you so much. Any recommendations on how frequently to apply iodine? Daily, multiple times a day, etc?

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    It was recommended to put him down. He was not x-rayed by a vet but he was examined and they concluded a broken neck due to the bone protrusion from the side of his neck. They said there’s not a whole lot they can do about a broken neck

    I Think My Hens Have Fowlpox

    I began noticing some white spots/scabs appearing on one of my hen's combs and have done some research on what it could possibly be. I initially thought maybe it was just a fungus, but it has now began showing on my other hens as well, leading me to think it is fowl pox. Is there any "cure" or...

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    from what I have heard, there is no way to fix his neck. I have also heard that most chicken farmers will kill them when this happens. I would hate to kill him, but he is no longer fertilizing eggs or even attempting to mount the hens anymore. and I have some concerns about introducing a new...

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    my apologies, I said crested but I was referring to his comb, I have since learned the proper terminology. We have found out that his neck is broken and that is most likely the cause of the drainage due to his lowered head position. But I believe he has stopped fertilizing our eggs

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    apologies for the late reply, the rooster has a broken neck and the drainage from the ears is most likely due to constant lowering of the head. Other than that he is fine, but we are still debating on what we should do as I believe he is no longer fertilizing eggs

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    Yes a vet is a possibility, if I need to contact a vet for medications for him. But I was curious as to if there were any other options

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    The head tilting started about 2 months ago, but has just recently begun to debilitate him. The wet substance around the face and beak has started within the past week.

    No I don’t believe so cause he gets around well on the ground sometimes, and thank you!

    Unusual Rooster Behavior

    I need help or advice on how to help my rooster. He was fine as a chick but as he’s grown he’s started expressing some unusual behaviors and mannerisms. He holds his head down at all times. Occasionally shakes his head back and forth. Places the top of his head on the ground and stands in place...
