Out of our 9 easter egger chicks, two started acting weird yesterday. Thought they were cold outside so we turned on the CHE, it did drop here from the normal.
We lost one this morning. The other is still hunched over. In almost a standing sleeping ball. Barely chirping and moving.
We have...

Hi all, I’m hoping someone can help us. We have a wonderful rooster, 5 years old, never been sick before. A couple weeks ago I noticed what appeared to be damaged inner corner of his eye. Seemed to only be there sometimes which made me think it was damaged to inner eyelid. Had like yellow in...
Hi! I am a new chick momma. I have 17 - 4 week old chicks and they were all doing well till yesterday. One of my ancona chicks became lethargic and stopped eating. I separated her from the flock but I am not sure what to do to help her. I put scrambled eggs, meal worms, chick feed and water with...
I have a one year old Speckled Sussex who's been moulting for the last week or so, but the feather loss has kicked into high gear over the last couple days, with feathers all over the coop and her tail falling out today.

Hello! My 2 week old bronze turkey poult Beans has started kind of gagging and choking last night? He kept sticking his throat out with his mouth open and gurgling so I wasn’t sure if he was choking or something. I gave him water after massaging his crop a little but the problem persisted. He...
I'm not sure if anything is wrong with my Buff Orpington but she is very broody and is kind of hunching over her back. She's a year old and has been perfectly healthy and maybe broody hens just look this way but I'm not experienced enough with broody hens to know.
She keeps trying to share...
I have a VERY sick bantam buff laced polish hen (frizzle). She is 1.5 years of age.
On Friday it was warm and I let the chickens out to free range. She was fine and running around like the little spunk she is. Yesterday, Saturday, I found her crouched, wings down, head down, backside curved...
I have a Golden Sex-Link hen, three or four years old, who for the past couple days has looked a bit droopy. She's still eating and she keeps up with the rest of the flock, but she can't jump the low barrier into the compost area where they like to scratch. She's also walking with a bit of a...
