    Hen dripping slimy clear liquid from beak

    Hello, it’s me again. One of the 2 Rhode Island Reds with presumably Coccidiosis started dripping a slimy, yet clear liquid from her beak. It’s on and off, and I’m wondering what it is from. I don’t have to worry about quarantining them from the flock, as they’re new and haven’t been accepted...

    Chicks first night in coop

    I have some new chicks that are about five and a half weeks old. They’ve been staying in my room with me since I got them, but what I had them in was getting a bit too small for them. I put them in the run tonight with the big girls in a dog crate. I’m going to introduce them using the playpen...

    Rhode Island Red hen?

    I have 3 larger RIR’s one I know is for sure a cockerel his tail feathers are far bigger and so are his saddles. I have 2 like this and their tails look like hens and they’re also not trying to crow like my male. And my male’s tail feathers are more pointed towards the end. These two have more...

    Egg Yolk Peritonitis Help!!!

    Hi all. So I have a 4-year-old RIR hen named Ruby who I adopted about a year ago now. She’s a fantastic girl. Really really sweet. She hasn’t ever laid an egg since I’ve had her and I assumed she was just done and was too old. But, recently, when the spring rolled around, she was sat in the...

    Rhode Island Red chicks

    My chicks are about 4-5 weeks old. One whom I have a feeling is a roo. He has been making movements like trying to crow. Do they practice crowing before they can actually make the sound? This is my first roo.

    Bully

    We have a flock of 8. 2 RIRs (9 months old), 2 golden comets (4.5 months) and 4 EEs (6 weeks old). My one RIR bullies everyone. She goes out of her way to peck and chase everyone except the other RIR. The EEs are separate but my RIR will reach through their pen and peck and pull feathers out...

    Hi, from our N.C., USA, family horse farm, w/ ten new chickens & renovations on ancient chicken house!

    Hi, from N.C.! It’s great to find communities out there to share with and provide support for people who are into chickens as well as perhaps all-things farms. My husband and I are back living full-time on our family horse farm for the 1st time in over 25 years. No horses for now, we are living...

    RIR Hen Won't Stop Attacking Dog

    We have a 2-year-old RIR hen who will constantly attack our 3 1/2-year-old male labrador retriever. I knew that RIR's were aggressive, but not this aggressive! It started small, she would peck at him if he got to close or tried to sniff at her. But then she started running up to him, to the...

    Different Chicken Egg Colour: Is This Healthy and Normal?

    My RIRs usually produce a nice reddish brown colour. But today I collected the eggs and found a really dull coloured egg. It’s still the same size as normal. I’m hoping that my RIR is healthy. Does egg colour difference mean they may be unhealthy?

    This is the first time these girls have seen grass. Poor things are still recovering from abuse at their previous home.
