    New pullets are constantly eating

    Hi there, I have a free-range flock who spend most of their time in the yard foraging but have free access to their coop where I have chicken feed available to them. It’s normal to see a chicken go inside the coop to have a snack and then head back outside to find a worm. Three days ago I...

    Help with chicken!

    My chicken is paralyzed from both legs and now she is struggling to drink and eat. She also has ongoing seizures and now her crop moves when she’s eating. I have to hold her down or else she will flap her wings everywhere where she can’t control herself. Any ideas?

    Help! My chicken could have a broken neck!

    This morning when I let out the chickens, I found my Brahma chicken lying on the ground. She cannot walk (when she tries, she falls over continually and panics) and her neck and head keep falling to her chest. Also, the right side of her face is bruised and marked.

    Do I have two Roos???

    Mildly concerned two of the ten girls I got this spring are not in fact girls. I got three jersey giants, and I’m adding pictures of the three of them side by side. We also have one confirmed crower 😅

    20 week chickens pellets or hens?

    I still don’t know their gender! There hasn’t been any crowing, Piper even had vent gleet and expelled what may have been egg material, Piper and Neutral are both vocal and do peck sometimes for food and Pecky is on the bottom for the hierarchy. I included a bunch of photos hoping that would...

    Thoughts

    Anyone have any experience with a pullet maturing faster than the rest. She or at least I think it's a she has no wattles, no shanks, and no crowing but her comb is definitely more than a pale pink, especially compared to the others. The comb started changing about a week and a half ago. For...

    Easter Egger Gender???

    Hello All! I hatched some Easter Egger chicks about 7 weeks ago. I am hoping someone might can tell me if these are hens or Roos? One is a yellow/orange color. And the other is a grey/orange color. Thanks in advance! :)

    12wk Hen or Roo??

    Is this 12wk old a pullet or cockerel? Not showing any rooster tendencies at all, no crowing, not dominant. Acts more like a pullet by being a bit more shy, my other roosters at this age were friendly. The comb/wattles are larger than my others.

    4.5 week old Gold Laced Wyandotte- boy or girl(s)??

    Hi all! I got a second round of chicks about a month ago & included in that bunch were 2 Gold Laced Wyandottes. I am thinking that the one who's comb is a bit more red might be a roo, although am really hoping that's not the case. I wouldn't mind having a rooster, but we're within city limits so...

    Hi there! I ordered some double silver laced Barnevelder (DSLB) hatching eggs in the mail. Due to the postal delivery crushing the box only one egg survived to hatching. Now this little, pullet?, is 3mo old to the day. Tiger as it is named, does not have the typical lacing of any of our other...

    Maran hen or roo??

    Pullet or Cockerel?? 10.5 weeks Mystic Maran. The black comb and wattles are throwing me off. This one is larger than the others. My husband said he heard a little one trying to crow and I’m trying to figure out who the culprit is 😂 Someone also told me that Mystic Marans do not have black...

    Lavender Orpington - Lazy, or something wrong with legs?

    Hi folks-- I have a lovely 11-week old Lavender Orpington pullet (Princess Kay). She gave me a bit of a scare early on when she was just a week or two old, not seeming able to stand for more than a minute at a time. I splinted her for splay leg, as well as gave her extra supplements (poultry...

    10-11 week old ermine ameraucana and ayam cemani - any thoughts on gender?

    I've tried looking at everyone's posts and looking up the anatomy of a rooster, but I still have no idea what I'm looking for. Help? Prepare for picture overload! Let's start out with this cuteness. Heat wave and still wanting to cuddle. I've posted when they were younger, and now I...
