HI! So she was separated and I actually got home last night, I checked over her wounds the best I could and I didn't see anything too bad. Shes been sprayed and is back in the coop (still separated but is let out with close supervison). She's doing a lot better.
I forgot to add photos but it isn't bad at all. My neighbor was asked to remove her but the rooster is being the problem with being a nuance. Thank you
Currently I am on vacation and my neighbor is watching my chickens. Today she called me and told me that my year old buff orpington was on her side and refusing to walk.
We were able to get her up and walking again by removing her mating saddle but her back is bloody. She's being bullied and...
Two of my buff orpingtons backs, sides, and head had been basically plucked clean almost and I'm trying to encourage new feather growth.
I had gotten a mating saddle (idk if those are consaverial but they are the only way I've seen that protect birds backs) for them and I haven't seen any new...
Bit ashamed in asking this but yesterday i noticed tgat my chickens poo was really liquidity. It doesn't seem bloody or anything but i began to start the slow process of cleaning their run up. Im hoping this will help but I want to make sure she will be ok.

Could be a few different things. Have they molted? Sometimes they could just be on break. A way i tell they are on break, or just freeloading is their comb. Bright red they are laying, pale comb means shes being a freeloader for now.
Currently my golden laced Wyandotte is broody, and for the past two or three days she has been keeping a lot of eggs under her and none of them escaped. I had taken them all away and left her with a ceramic egg so she wouldn't be over flowing with eggs.
But today we had an after shock from a...
I think this question is in the right place but if it isnt ill just delete it and try again .
I have a few questions regarding molting for chickens, mostly about early signs, care tips, and why it wouldn't be happening.
My chickens are almost a year old and quite honestly i though i would see...
It looks like the middle could be a boy. I wish i could help more. But when you hear a crow id sit outside and watch them closely, eventually someone cracks
How many birds, breeds and age? If you dont know the breeds i would try to find out. Ages is hard but i just go off of when you first bought them and add a week or two depending on how big they are. Egg production when you first get chickens is slow and a bit frustrating. But it could also be...
Ive only had a white silkie roo so i cant help with coloring but i can help with one thing, if you look at their head the boys will have longer more scraggly feathers on their poof! Their waddle thing will also be bigger! I hope this helps, but pics will always help
