This is sad. I’ve lost chickens too; I also have very old chickens. You know it could be something weird, a bug or berry. I sorry it’s sad to lose them.

You can do that, I have one layer box in the coop in case someone needs to lay before I let them out, before I did that occasionally an egg would be laying on the ground, how embarrassing for the girl.

Not an expert on this but can you use sand and salt? Or a bunch of hay to get them up. Just shooting in the dark a picture would help.

A baby aspirin, see how little she is a little piece or desolve one in water and let her drink a little I think that’s what I did. Never with a silky though. Also don’t be afraid to pray.

I think it would be a disservice to the ducks. They would be orphanes. My silky had 13 chicken eggs, long story but hatched 6. My other broody silky I gave 1 chick, it doesn’t seem to have a problem and has joined the other 6 week olds now. I’m pretty sure, not 100% because it’s a Silky, you...

If that’s your roo I’d get on it and post a picture.

Do they like them? I like that idea.

Also, check the breed, some are not good free rangers. Flighty birds, I had some, 16 went so far up in the trees we couldn’t get them. They all were Fox food. I still free range just don’t get birds that are not good free rangers. rs.

It seems to help a lot. When I first started I read a great article, it said go to the end of the driveway and scoop up some grit.

If it’s cold and dark they are going to cuddle under her. I’ve alway put young chicks under a hen that’s been broody three weeks. Usually the chicks are the problem not the hen.

Wow, you did good.

It looks like a regular Betta, I’ve bought fancies before. I found live plant helped murky water, this is my experience, I’ve had a few over the years. Oh, the setting still, hovering is very normal, mine seemed to stay in a 3-6 area all the time, once I added other fish. You don’t need to buy...

I asked the feed store, chicken person that very question, she said they would not. I didn’t get them, this is hear say. Someone eles should chime in.

My first easy, cheap waterer was a dog dish and with a hose dripping. I still do that from time to time.

Welcome. Nice essay.

This is them with a full grown bird.

I hope you’re right

I don’t know, they were feathered when I bought them. They couldn’t tell me age. I’m new to silkies and smitten but am clueless.

Ok I waited a few weeks, I would like a hen and a roo, any opinions?

Sometimes you just have to see what happens. I free range and I do let them see each other before I let them go.
