(Reposted here as i posted this in turkey thread before seeing this section sorry) Hello! My 2 week old bronze turkey poult Beans has started kind of gagging and choking last night? He kept sticking his throat out with his mouth open and gurgling so I wasn’t sure if he was choking or something...
Good evening everyone,
I am new to raising baby chicks but have 6 2 year old ladies that are wonderful.
I brought home 6 new babies to add to my flock this year, and I’m worried my Easter Egger is sick.
She is usually one of my go getters, always first over for treats, investigates everything...
Hi everyone! I have 2 baby pekin ducklings both that I’ve hatched from an egg one is nearly 2 weeks old and the other is 2 days old! The 2 week old has only had me since he hatched as the other eggs weren’t viable:( so the new one has come along to be his company!
They seem to be getting on...
I know its to early to really tell but i bought all my birds as pullets but this salmon favorelle seems to either not be right breed/gender or just early devolper
This one above i believe is pullet the one below i think is different breed/gender
I have 2 week old BLRW chicks. They’re are 4 splash, 2 blue and 1 black. Their wings are developing differently and I’m wondering if the BLRW have sex link genes? Are the roos slower to feather than the pullets? I’m assuming from the wing differences that I have 4 roos and 3 pullets. Any expert...
I got 3 - 3 day old silkie chicks from the pet/poultry store. The girl assisting me was talking over the phone to figure out how to identify them out of the mix of 100 crazy chicks running around!
So between the two of us, we found 2 that are definitely silkies (black feet, 5 fluffy toes...
They are all doing excellent, and their feathers are all growing in very fast. Also, these are some of the sweetest chicks I have ever had! I have posted some pictures of them below as well:
I picked up this 1-2week old Australorp. I am unsure they gave me the right breed as all the pictures I see online of australorp chicks have yellow stomach, and mine doesn’t. Could this be a different breed? Has anyone had a all black australorp chick?
