    Corrected impacted crop chicken still not laying

    I have an Easter Egger hen who had an impacted crop for somewhere between a few days to up to a week. It took about 3 days to correct once I discovered it but it might have been a few days before I noticed. She’s still thinner than my other Americana but not super thin. I don’t believe she has...

    Insight to what’s wrong with my hen please!

    Hello! I was wondering if this was vent gleet or if anyone had insight as to what this could be? I’m pretty sure she just laid her first egg. She’s walking, eating, drinking like normal. Haven’t seen her poop yet. She’s eating layer feed and scraps. Thank you in advance!

    Why did green liquid come out of my duck’s vent?

    This is the second time it’s happened. This happened once awhile back, but we believed it wasn’t a very big deal since it was the first time it’d happened and nothing showed up online. She seemed fine and she does now too, she doesn’t seem particularly unwell after pooping this, so we’re not...

    Chicken with swollen but SOFT belly

    I have a hen who has been the one who runs up to me, demanding that I carry her around, talking to her, as I examine the pasture. She is the one who will run to me when she has a feather out of place, and bawk at me until I fix it. She is feeling down, and I am worried. I love her. The facts...

    New Layer, 6mo suddenly aggressive

    I have a Buff Brahma named Bobbi who has always been the sweetest and most apt to show me friendly attention. Her breed is a docile breed (they're called the friendly giants!). Her and my other two hens (a speckled sussex named Nancy and a Buff Orpington named Marge) just turned 6months old and...

    Abnormal growth inside egg: help identify the problem

    First time posting and joining- I usually find answers here without the need to post- but I have found something weird I can’t find anything else like it! This came from one of my smaller Sultan hens. Came from inside the egg. To me it looks like an underdeveloped eggshell inside the other egg...

    Progressive egglaying abnornalities

    Hi everyone! First time poster! This was my first winter with my flock. Six Plymouth blue rocks(one is a rooster) and two buff orpingtons. They laid regularly and production wasn’t super impacted and got 3-5 eggs daily. Late winter I started to notice that one of the girls was consistently...

    Asking for your thoughts

    Hi, I haven’t posted in a while, I was so busy with the exams and deadlines. I’ve been recently concerned about Cookie and Daisy. I figured Cookie is losing weight while she’s eating normal and thankfully she’s not laying any egg( just those abnorml eggs rarely), her wings’ feather doesn’t look...

    Something is wrong with my newly hatched chick

    Hello, This baby hatched sometime today. When we went out to check, the baby was out of the egg and laying in front of my hen. It has not opened its eyes and is still in the "smashed in a egg" position. It has not gotten up and is still breathing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Pullet with Green Feathers?

    Hello, everyone! Another very confused Karen here as my own perceived knowledge of chickens has been questioned. The Backstory: I had a Rhode Island Red who was ~5 months old that was very late in showing it's sex. Finally, he began producing the telltale sheen and pointed green neck feathers...

    Chick with stringy poop?

    hello! I have a week old silkie who’s poop looks like a worm. Just a single strand. I have had other chickens and know it’s not normal but can’t find any explanation. She doesn’t have pasty butt. What do you think this could be?

    Duckling with strange leg issues, not spraddle etc

    hi guys i had a duckling hatch early last week from a breach position which at first I thought had curled toes. But it now sems like either some sort of leg deformity that I cant find any info on, or a neurological issue, which seems to be getting worse the stronger the duckling gets. Since...

    Abscess like thing on hens face!

    When I was closing the coop I noticed blood on the ground. When I found the hen that was bleeding I saw a red bump on her face. I don't know what it is but this hen is a rather unlucky chicken. I didn't think to feel if it is soft or hard at the time and it's too dark to go back out...

    Duckling with leg/foot abnormalities

    I had an egg hatch yesterday and the little guy was a bit behind the others. His feet are balled up into "fists" and his legs are straight out behind him. He can't walk, just scoot by pushing forward with his legs. He's active and eating and drinking. Honestly, I wasn't sure he would make it...

    Not roosting

    I have 3 chicks that are 6 weeks old. They moved into their coop last week and everything has been great! I read that I should block off the nesting box at this phase so they they don't learn to hang out in there. My solution was to stuff it with sheets we don't use. Tonight I checked on them...

    Enlarged Gullet

    One of my laying hens has an extremely enlarged gullet. I picked her up and I can feel the Grain and food in it and noticed that the feathers are gone off the bottom of it, it is pink skin showing. I'm worried that she's not digesting her food or getting any nourishment. She seems to act just...
