I have a late hatcher that had her egg sack still attached for a couple days. It dried up enough that I could snip just enough off and after feeding her and giving her water, I decided to let her rest for the night lastnight. For the past 4 days she’s been super active, always trilling and...

My roosters leg recently went limp, but now he has movement in his hip. However, his leg has started to heal pointing inward underneath him and it is crossing over his good leg so it makes even hopping difficult. He doesn't seem to be in pain. He's eating, drinking, and when I set him out for a...
My Barnevelder hen is very unwell. She has always been more to herself and not very friendly but I noticed her staying completely by herself a couple days ago. Was able to catch her and she feels very thin and lethargic. Her poop is green pellet like and watery. I have recently dewormed all...
