    Hen rejecting chicks?

    Hi everyone! I’m in a little bit of a panic rn so I’ll keep this brief. I hatched three chicks under a broody hen the other day. Today I went out and saw she left the nest and the chicks were huddled together for warmth. I put her back in and she stood on one of the chicks necks and wouldn’t get...

    Hey, i hope my post isnt too long and at least somewhat understandable. A few months ago we planned to hatch chickens for us and also for a friend of us. She asked for a certain breed, which was totally okay fur us, since we wanted to hatch more than one breed anyway. In the end we could only...

    Chicks heavy breathing

    So i once again and raising chicks. This isn't my first time, I've handled most problems, including labored breathing. However since its been so long i cant tell if its normal breathing or the labored breathing once more. I do not think its from the heat given they seek to be under the lamp as...

    First time having chicks, suspicious rooster behavior

    Hello! This is my first time posting here after lurking for advice while the chicks were younger. I have two adult hens (red star and ISA brown) in my backyard that I got as pullets, but after one of my hens decided to have a brief egg-eating stint (solved by the mustard-in-eggshell trick...

    Polish Chicks Sexing

    Hello there, I have these two Polish Chicks that I got from a breeder on May 24. They are both different ages. I was supposed to get 10 days old chicks but by the time I arrived there they were all sold, so after some persuasion he gave me some of the chicks he spared for himself. I asked how...

    Does this mean they’re comfortable with me?

    My chickens are still around the age they need a heat lamp, about to grow out of it, so they stay inside but I take them outside during the day to get them used to it. When I do they always stick near me and I even once got used as a mama chicken when something spooked the pair and they tried to...

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? My mom got chickens 16 years ago after immigrating our family to Australia. They were silkie chickens. I got my first chickens myself in my early 20s but suffered a terrible miscarriage that almost killed me so I gave them to my mom...
