    3 Day Old Chick - Wry Neck or Something Else?

    I have 3 day old baby chicks. Is it possible for wry neck to be present at day 1? Or would it likely be some other condition - like something neurological? The chick is presenting all wry neck symptoms pretty accurately (walks in circles, neck tilting and rolling and twitching, falling over...

    Is this a frizzle??? I have one frizzle who was super obvious, but this one I’m on the fence about… she is almost two weeks old, a bantam easter egger. Will she frizzle or is she just a little roughed up in this photo???

    My chicken needs help!

    My little chicken has been like this for over a week and seems to be getting worse.

    Good news! (Obligatory chick picture)

    Hey yall! I actually just posted my intro yesterday not expecting any eggs to hatch at all.

So, naturally, I assumed I’d done a rotten job since I had a hard time...

    What is this boney protrusion on chick?

    My 3week old Black Sex Link has these boney looking protrusions on the top of her wings - is this normal? She’s a sweet little thing - loves to snuggle but doesn’t act like anything is hurting. I’ve not seen it on any other chicks before - but maybe it’s just the contrast of light skin and...
