    Lump on chicken’s breast

    I’ve made a post about this chicken pretty recently regarding a patch of missing feathers over her crop. At first, I didn’t really think much was really wrong, maybe just some feather picking. It’s over her crop, as I said earlier, so a lump isn’t really that concerning. I’ve begun to monitor...

    Worried about Muscovy duck

    For context…my husband witnessed some tiny ducklings run over by a dump truck on his way home from work in late May. He stopped to check on them and found one duckling was alive and wasn’t hit. Mom was nowhere to be found. He brought it home, and my 15-year-old daughter took it in to raise as...

    Flock not looking too good this winter

    Hello, so I've notice that this late fall/winter my flock hasn't been looking too good. I've had one hen die randomly, looking back I think maybe she got a vitamin deficiency some how but I'm not 100%. I'm worried for my flock because I've noticed some things that could be related to a harsh...

    Please give me ideas on what could be going on with my Pekin.

    My year old female Pekin has begun acting different. She seems lethargic and not as active, but is eating and drinking well. She is sort if isolating herself from the other 4 ducks, like will just be laying off on her own. When she flaps her wings to stretch, her right wing doesn’t extend...

    Rooster cant stand up straight.

    So one of my black roosters has been squatting an awful lot lately. He's got a healthy appetite and can walk around, but he tends to stay low to the ground or just hang out in one place. He seems to have a healthy weight, and I can't find any injuries, so I'm not sure what's up. He's a regular...

    I need to know- does this mean my baby duck is unhealthy?

    i recently became concerned about one of my newer ducklings, which i named Frank. We bought her and two others (All Pekins) from the local farm store in early May this year (2019, specifying just in case) and moved them out into the coop in late May, and we keep new birds in a little “jail”...

    One of my girls has developed a black blob on her comb!! What is it??

    Hi I have two chooks (Pekin bantams). One of them is usually at the top of the food chain, normally bossing the other one around and stealing food, but lately she seems to be feeling out of sorts, has less appetite, and isn’t her usual bossy self. I have noticed a small black blob on her comb-...

    Chick is acting normal but looks weird?

    The chick in the photos is acting perfectly. It's alert, it's active and is given heat, food, and water. It's about 6 weeks old yet still isn't fully feathered but that's just like it's hatchmates. I observed it recently and it's entire vent area seems to be black. Is this an illness or just a...

    Sick Chicken?

    Hi all, I am new to raising chickens and have just two in my backyard. My Jersey Giant lost feathers in the fall and they haven't grown back yet. This morning I went to let her out of the coop and she wouldn't come out. I am worried she's sick? Any help here would be greatly appreciated! She...
