I am loving all the dog and chicken pics and videos of little crowers
What a great way to start the morning.

I see gross poops from my heavy molters. Yes greenish and watery.
I think some of them go off their feed a bit while having a rough day.

X2 naked Amelia has had really watery, green poops since she started molting.

Thanks guys. I was worried that I had some other issues going on, I did just give them corid and safeguard so I was a bit worried someone had too much.

Here is my Serama Momma Monique and her babies. One is frizzled and one is silkied. Not sure of their sex yet. Hoping both are girls but I swear I heard one trying to crow last weekView attachment 1570538 View attachment 1570539

They're gorgeous! I love that little frizzle. I hope they're girls. Their combs look really similar though. How old are they?

They are 8 weeks. Do you think their combs look roosterish?

Have any of you seen poop that looks like this? There were 2 piles in 2 different areas of the poop board, though it *could* have come from the same bird. First time seeing it... It's green. Like someone ate a sea foam green crayon and pooped it out. View attachment 1570490 View attachment 1570491
Here's my sad little porcupine. She's an egger and mine seem to take 23784 years to molt and spend a lot of time in the naked porcupine phase. I'm hoping the extra stuff, fish and eggs, are helping. I'm so afraid someone will peck her and make her bleed, but so far, so good. He skin looks so thin and vulnerable. That cow behind her in the first pic is the female lav.

Eeeew! Lots of grass? I hate to worry about poop too quicky, so I'd just keep a close eye out for more of it.

Cooper just ran over to listen too! Look at his funny face! View attachment 1570497

Kiss me!!!

Here's Thoreau crowing his little heart out

He's a doll! And that's exactly what most of mine sound like. The last note kinda trails off...…

How old?? I'm guessing both cockerels.

8 weeks? 99% sure those are boys, dear.

Both cockerals? Oh I hope not

If so.....can I keep 3 cockerals with 15 hens?

They hadn't been outside the day before and their run hasn't had grass for a while. I'll watch for more. The vet recommended bringing some poo in for a fecal float after the 14 day withhold period for the safeguard is over. If there's still some of the green stuff I'll take that in too.

The usual suggestion is 1 boy / 10 girls. for girls. They're so pretty! They're little though, so maybe it won't be too bad if they are boys, esp if you have LF girls too.

Maybe. My seramas seem to be a little more forgiving of younger and multiple boys, and "share" better than other breeds. My cochin boys argue over the girls more. The bigger problem with the seramas is a short period when the boys first start mating, they are like horny teenage boys. If you can get past that, and if you have plenty of room, I'd give it a shot.
