    Mother hen not eating, empty crop

    Hello! My Cochin hatched three eggs a week and three days ago, and for the first four/five days she seemed to be eating well and pooping big, broody-like poops. But then she stopped eating as much, giving everything to the little ones. Her crop is empty most of the day and her poops are less...

    Is this normal?

    I got 5 maran chicks from TSC but only 3 survived, and two of them have white/gray legs and one has yellow legs. I'm wondering if that's a normal thing or something else. Maran #1 Maran #2 Maran #3

    Frizzled NN hen or roo?

    I have the gorgeous little frizzled naked neck baby and I’m struggling to sex it. It was hatched first week of may. I was pretty sure it was a pullet due to lack of wattles but the reddening is throwing me off. lmk what you think!

    Hen got a little too excited 😅

    Just wanted to share my awkward and gross encounter with one of my Delawares a few moments ago. A few of my chickens love to hop up on my lap and get some cuddles in when I’m in the coop. My Delaware, Willow, does this the most. This morning she hopped up and I gave her a hug like always except...

    Hen with purple comb

    I’ve got a 1 and two month old blue Andalusian who gets a purple comb on the back and tips. (Pics included, but it looks darker in person). It isn’t all day, just usually in the evening when she’s moving around a lot more. I wasn’t too concerned at first because she has a pretty big comb, but...

    Introducing chicks to flock (hatched under Broody Hen)

    I am looking for some advice on what to expect in the next steps of my flock introductions. It's my first time introducing a broody hen's chicks to the rest of the flock. I have introduced new birds before, but always as pullets, never from chicks. All hens were previously together before I...

    Bonded brooder Mates?

    I posted recently about needing to rehome 2 roosters. Question - I have a hen and a rooster, both 6 months old. They were brooder mates and very bonded. Can I rehome the rooster without her? Will she be heartbroken? Should I try to rehome both together as a bonded pair?

    What should I price this hen at?

    I hatched her myself and was told she was an Ameraucana. She came out of a blue egg but she’s been free ranging so I have never actually seen her lay an egg to know what color she is laying or even if she is actually laying yet. But she should have blue eggs. I’m having to sell my whole flock...

    Hen chewing on other chickens tail feathers?

    I have a hen that has some wacked out looking tail feathers compared to the rest. I caught one of my other hens just… gently chewing on her tail? Nothing malicious or anything… just… odd…? (Hen on the left is the chewer, while hen in the middle is the chewee)

    The infamous question: Roo or Hen?!?

    Ok so I’ve been a little in denial because we’ve been hoping for only one rooster but I fear we have 3 roos out of the 4 chicks we got from a friend, who hatched them in an incubator. These chicks are 8 weeks old. The are buff Orpingtons and the gray and black ones are Green Queens. So the...

    Hen or Rooster? Chick update

    Hello, I posted a thread maybe close to a month ago wondering if one of my new Olive Egger chicks was a male. I read about the males having a dog on their head, but I’m not sure the parents lineage so I was informed it cannot be determined if it’s accurate or not. Here are updated pics of my two...

    Hens or Roos?

    I have 2 supposed hens here - 12 weeks old, but I’m wondering what others think. The neck feathers on both of these the pattern gives the illusion that the feathers are pointed but the actual feather appears rounded at the ends on the neck when I look closely. These two are likely Easter Egger...
