    I need a bit of help with my 4 chooks.

    Ming Ming is sick and I need help, please!

    Yesterday evening, I noticed that Ming (23 weeks old, Sapphire Gem) was wheezing. I listened to her chest and could not heat any rattling or wheezing (so the wheeze was in her throat, not her lungs, I gusss?). There was no drainage in her eyes or nostrils. I isolated her from the flock and...

    I think my button quail is dying

    I picked up my 5 month old quail earlier and afterward she started panting/gasping for air, since then she's just been sitting, breathing heavily and she seems like she's asleep but she will open her eyes if there's any noise, I noticed a few days ago she would nap during the day but I didn't...

    Silkie started to lay at 5 months old!

    I have two a little older than 5 months old silkies, one of which has started to lay. (2 months early!) Today my dad could not find Dusty and so we started to look in the run and coop. I found her in the corner a little cozy quiet spot in the coop and picked her up. I was extremely surprised...

    5 month old Bantam chickens - hen or rooster?

    Hi all, Having trouble identifying this little bantam. Roughly 5 months old. Any ideas if I have a hen or a rooster?

    What does this mean?

    So my 5 month old silkie/polish cross started to make weird purring/growling sounds and won't move. It's been at least ten minutes. The chicks started to do it too. Should I be worried? Everything was fine before.

    Thank you everyone who offered help

    Over the last few weeks/months I've been desperate to get a gender on my silkie chick. Got into the 5 month mark with no indications. Lots of you guessed cockerel but weren't sure as it's hard to do with silkies. Well...today I watched HIM crow. You all were right even if it was a guess. I'm...

    Small flock of noisy girls

    we have a small backyard flock of 3 hens ( we started with 5 but 2 turned out to be roosters and had to be re-homed), since losing our last male, our EE hen has become very noisy! If she senses any activity outside the coop she immediately starts in with a pterodactyl like screech. Our other...

    When will my EE hen start laying ?

    Hello, My hen Sulley has yet to lay her first egg (she’s around 5 months old) and seems to be not planning on laying any eggs soon, or at least that’s what I’m thinking and I was wondering what the reason for that could be. Since around two month it has been cold here,but she has been dealing...

    What the world?!? Eggs???

    I just wanted to make a post because I'm surprised and a little confused. I ordered day-old turkeys from a hatchery that were delivered April 5, 2018. They were a broad-breasted mix. I butchered all but one white hen. I also have a black Spanish. On August 31, I purchased three Red Bourbon's...
