My uncle asked if I wanted to try & save a new chick before he culled. I've had her for 5 days now & nothing I've tried is helping (did "fix" her original splayed leg, have used the cup trick, & I've wrapped her in a "sitting" position off & on to try to encourage her bones to form correctly)...
Can anyone post a photo of their satin paint silkie HEN here so I can compare to mine. Actually, roos are fine too... I'm just really worried that my very favorite chicken is a boy 😭😭💔💔 please, help a girl out...
Hey guys, I have two calico bantam cochins that I originally thought were a male & a female, but the "female" got brighter red, literally overnight 😭😭 now I'm thinking both boys 💔💔 they're my first cochins so I just don't know. I heard that you can typically tell males at 4 to 6 weeks, but they...
I can't tell if this is a pullet or roo, my first single comb silkie. The comb is v shaped, but all the single comb silkie pictures I can find lol v shaped. I can't tell if those are streamers on the crest or not. Any ideas? She/ he is 8 weeks old today.
I'm currently treating my polish girl for a uri, she is getting better, but the congestion is just so extreme in her mouth & throat. Is there anything else I can do to help or break up? 🥺🥺
Ugh, not here on a happy note today...I just noticed my best girl has some sorry of injury/infection in one of her eyes, I don't believe it's fowl pox because no one else has any sores or symptoms. She's very social & was acting normal earlier today, but I knew as soon as I came out just now...
These are my cousins chickens that she got from a neighbor awhile back, I'm not familiar with these breeds, can anyone tell me what they are? I'm including a picture of their eggs as well. They eggs match the chickens on the same sides of the pics.
I know it's early, but I'm pretty sure I'm right, just looking for confirmation. Three chicks, two pictures of each. I believe the first two are cockerels & the third is a pullet...
Now that I've found this group I'm going to ask a million questions.
#1 being because I'm an extremely impatient person & I can't ever wait for babies to grow out, I want answers now!! Lol #2 because I'm curious & like to learn.
So I am not a breeder, nor do I show, my chickens are for my...
I picked these guys up yesterday, I know the orange & white is definitely a mix, but what about the other one? She doesn't have the puffy cheeks, so some not have them or will she get them later? They are said to be around 3 or 4 months...
my name is Angie, I have had chickens for about a year & a half now & I absolutely love them!! I don't breed or show, they are strictly happiness bringers for me. I currently have one partridge showgirl rooster, two polish hens (one golden & one white crested), one blue splash ameraucana hen &...
I purchased for turkens a couple weeks ago, one of the babies developed strange lumps on her neck. Initially I feared it was pox, but have since realized it's something else. The lumps are not hard, but not soft either. They're almost like cysts, but I attempted to open one a bit & nothing would...
