    VERY lethargic sick chicken please help

    My poor baby susu is a NN silkie bantam. She has always been on the struggle bus. She had a lame leg when I first got her at 5 months and we helped heal that. As soon as she got healthy and walking again, she became our bantam NN silkie roosters favorite. She would often lay on her side when...

    injured? shocked? thinking about being broody?

    Hi, one of our girls has been sitting in the nest box pretty much all day for the past few days and eating very little. So about a week ago I went out to shut the girls away and our SLW had her neck caught in the hinge of the gate. She kicked and managed to flap off as I went outside and she...

    Swollen foot on my puller

    My baby barred rock, Melody, has a swollen foot. I am wondering if it could be broken? It is tender to the touch but I don’t feel anything broken. No signs of mites and I don’t think it is bumble foot (there is one small spot but the top is really swollen to be a mild bumble case). Any other...

After 24 hours it still hadn't externally pipped so I poked a small hole through the air cell and put it back in the bator. 24 hours later there was no progress and I could no longer hear it peeping. I began chipping away the shell and...
