    Egg bound or sick or something else?

    One of my buff orpingtons is acting weird today. Her tail is down and it seems like she’s shuffling around to walk, not going super far, and laying down every chance she can. When she is laying it seems like she’s trying to squeeze something out so I’m thinking she may be egg bound, however she...

    Mental Impact of Fox Attack?

    Hello, About a week ago I lost 4 of my 6 chickens (pullets) to a fox attack. I am trying to replace them ASAP so the other 2 are not too lonely, although they seem extremely bored and a bit different than before. For example they crave attention a lot more and come running much quicker than...

    My experience with Buff Orps and Past Regrets

    I got into chickens when I was probably around 8 or 10 years old. My brother who was in high school at the time played a big part in getting baby chicks. We had so many chicks (so many!! Lol), and the majority were straight run. Well one of my favorite and most remembered birds happened to be...

    Is my 4 week Old Buff Orpington a male?

    This is my first flock and I’m in need of some help! I have 5 new chicks from TSC, and I think one of my babies might be a cockerel? She looked just like my other buff Orpington yesterday and then today her comb and wattles changed color and got a little darker. Do you think it’s a cockerel or...

    Chick with strange nose mass

    Two weeks ago I received this little buff Orpington from Mcmurray. She’s currently divided from the other chicks by hardwire cloth and allowed to mingle with them when I’m out to supervise. I noticed last week her nose seemed to be bleeding slightly and assumed it was from her sticking her beak...

    I've got this cross in my incubator at the moment and I know it will be a sex link but I’m wondering if anyone has pictures of chicks or adults from this specific cross? I’ll add my own pictures to this thread when they are hatched but that will take a while!
