Update:
All chickens are healthy and here today. After hatching my Ameraucana eggs out (from same farm) they also had a bout of Coccidia as well, same protocol and they all survived! ❤️
It seemed many people were having issues with Coccidia this year that normally didn’t, that’s why I was...
Omgoodness! I think you may be right about the Lakeside breed. How cute! Cheeky is just the goofiest thing I’ve ever seen, very docile as we have introduced new babies to the flock recently and she actually runs from them lol!
I picked Cheeky up with 4 other chicks and Ameraucana hatching eggs...
Maybe… what breed are they? Some lay sooner or later than others. If you notice their combs becoming more red and they are investigating the nesting boxes then they are possibly getting ready or may have found a different spot already to lay. Good luck ☺️
Hi all,
I love playing this game haha!
If anyone has a similar bird I’d love to see it and any info that helps identify :
This is Cheeky ( we were told possibly part Ameraucana) aka Dodo.
She (still hoping) is around 14 weeks and came with 4 other BYM siblings.
She is just an interesting looking...
Thank you 😊
I fixed my original post but yes I know not to give Poultry Cell until after the Corrid treatment.
I did do extensive research but there are conflicting dosages.
I did do 2tsp to one gallon of water for all 6 chicks.
I just got back from the pharmacy and asked for a kids’...

I picked up some new chicks from a farm about a month ago, so they are 4-5 weeks old. I feel bad for not putting them on medicated feed. Because I’ve never had a problem before but I have learned my lesson and I feel absolutely TERRIBLE now.
I found bloodly stools in the brooder this...
Yes, I didn’t want to go as far as that and wash the bloom off. We’ve tried to hatch a small clutch with only one hatching (that’s why we went to go buy more babies 😁) but all my eggs were squeaky clean so the poopy eggs is new for me. I will attach some pics.
Thank you :)
Hello
So I went to pick up some hatching eggs today (Well out of my way, time+ money).
I was so excited to get them , I guess it was my fault for not looking better at the eggs before purchase . We also bought some chicks from them as well so the new baby chick cuteness overload blinded me…
I...
Thank you!
I can only say that mom is a Novogen and dad is unidentified lol…
I posted in the identification section if anyone could help me figure out his breed but no luck. So we’re gonna say he’s a good mix of something and something 😊
It absolutely is! Honestly it was stressful at times because of the unknown (like from day to day for 21 days not knowing if it suddenly decided to quit). But definitely rewarding when watching the baby hatch. Now that I’ve been through the process and certainly do not feel like an expert, I do...
Hello hello! (I’m a story teller so this is a little winded)
So we decided to try to hatch out some eggs from our flock for the first time(none of our girls have ever gone broody and they have been laying for almost a year)
Anyways…the process did not go as well as I wanted it to :(
We used...
I’m just super curious …
This is Mean Bean, he is 1 yr and 4 months old (I’ve had him since he was 2 days old). I was told by the local farmer where I adopted him from that his clutch was Novogens. Obviously a barnyard mix 😬
And yes, there were other breeds running around at the farm but none...
