    Orpington with Beak Injuries

    When I was out with the hens as they were free ranging tonight I noticed the ones beak looked off. I grabbed her to get a closer look and the tip is broke and there is some black buildup towards base of beak. Black buildup may just be dirt from pecking around yard and run. Is this cause for...

    My girl has been injured. What can I do???

    I recently noticed my chicken has been injured by something. I initially thought it was a bald spot caused by our puppy, since he has been caught pulling her feathers out before. We've had the puppy for 4 months now, and what I thought to be a bald spot is actually more severe upon closer...

    Feathers missing on face?

    My Silkie Hen, Soot, has missing feathers around her comb. I didn’t notice until now because all of my chickens have been eating cherries that get their faces dirty and stick their feathers down sometimes. This is her all cleaned up.
