Hi there! Last week upon running out of chicken feed, my husband made a quick trip to the store and bought the only feed they had, layer feed. I only have 2 layers. The rest are still young and on grower. Anyway, I had no choice but to feed the layer feed to everyone until we were able to get...

No prolapse or injuries. I don’t have pictures of the poop. She didn’t eat much yesterday so I didn’t see her poop anymore. She did start eating again last night, though. She stood at the feeder and chowed down for almost 10 minutes. She’s continuing to eat this morning just smaller amounts more...

After battling coccidiosis and worms for a few weeks, losing 1 chick and almost losing another, but thinking it was now under control, I have a hen who is pooping nothing but blood. She has had one dose of dewormer (fenbendazole), second dose due tomorrow. We’ve treated for Cocci with...

I see what you mean. She’s just really hard to photograph and it’s just the way she’s standing. Her tail isn’t as large in comparison to her body as the picture makes it seem. She’s just weird lol.

She lays medium brown eggs. Normal egg shape. She’s not being used for breeding so no worries there. None of our Jersey’s are. But she should start gaining weight since we’ve dewormed. I haven’t weighed her since we started deworming but all the ones I have weighed are gaining like crazy.

Here’s a better foot picture

Here’s the pictures. She’s quite “spicy “ today so sorry if the feet ones aren’t great lol.

He acts completely normal. I’m not sure if he’d roost at night if I didn’t put him on there myself. All of the young ones only just started roosting recently. I help the ones that didn’t get the memo lol. He doesn’t seem injured. No obvious signs of pain. No illness. He walks perfectly fine. He...

Got her from a local guy. She’s not an Orpington. I wish she were. I love Orpingtons. But she doesn’t have the body shape for one. The original picture was her squatting to get a drink so she looks like one in that position. She’s quite tall and slender.

I’ll take some soon. Her comb is a little messed up, though. She’s missing feathers on her back and head too. Obviously was a favorite of her last rooster.

Here’s a picture of her body shape. She’s not an Orpington but the last picture made her look like it from the way she was standing.

I got her from a local man downsizing his flock. I can get a picture of her feet later today. I think she brought in worms, which explains her lower weight. We recently dewormed and everyone is back to normal and gaining weight. But I don’t think she’s got another 5lbs of growth ahead of her.

I got this hen, Gretchen, about a month ago. She is almost 11 months old. We were told she’s a Jersey Giant. But she doesn’t look like our other two Jersey’s that we’ve raised from 3 days old. Gretchen is brown instead of black like my other two. She’s now smaller than my Cochin rooster who is 4...

Here is a front view as well

Here’s an update! She is now 7 weeks old. Looks like a pullet to me except she’s now very red in the face and her legs are turning red as well. Thoughts now?
