Should I try to avoid where they free ranged before and put them in a new space, so they have less exposure when I put them out in the evenings. (To clarify, I just give them a little outside time like 1-2 hours during the weekdays if it's not raining, and a little more time on the weekends.) I...

…if I can figure out how. And how to spell “thanks” properly. 😝

Thabks. I’ll delete this one. :)

Don’t give the vitamin E and selenium? Because I feel like she starts having more head control issues if I am late feeding it to her.

Hey Kiki. I give them BSFL very occasionally. Our chick with the wry neck came to us that way in the mail. I have a video of her struggling to stay upright in the box we got her from on the mail. I didn’t do it. She’s WAYYYY better now. I named her Miracle because it seems like a Miracle that...

Should I treat my “older” hens and roo too? I have 4 layers, 2 13-week-old hens and a 1: week old roo. We just started integrating the two “flocks” a couple days ago.

Thanks. She’s a splash Maran. Her feathers are coming in so beautiful, and she’s becoming one of my sweeter ones. ❤️ I really want her to stay well.

We have 5 young chicks (6 weeks) that we free ranged in our garden with our neighbor’s young chicks. They went out of town, so I figured we’d let them all hang out together. Now, 2 days after my neighbor came back to tend to their birds, one of her chicks is pooping blood. Seems like she thinks...

Does anyone have any name suggestions for our olive egger chick?

If this bird’s a rooster, shouldn’t it crow some by now? Or are Brahmas just super late to the game?

I need some help sexing this chicken. We’ve named her? Mulan-Prianka (since it’s a Chinese-Indian bird). “She” is 18 weeks, almost 19 weeks, old and a bit grumpy with other chickens. Our black copper maran rooster of the same age is subjected to Mulan-Pria’s grumpy outbursts of feather picking...

Oh thanks! I would very much appreciate help identifying the Brahma. Sorry, super new here. How do I go about starting a convo with just one person.

We technically have two, it's the one that the Brahma and Black Copper Maran roo spend the bulk of their time in. We have a 13 ft. tractor on our Eglu, and we are trying to free range them in the evenings. The Eglu we have is the bigger one, and from what I've researched, people can fit 6 of the...

Thanks. Our local NPIP certified hatchery with heritage breeds only has straight run chicks, no autosexed breeds. Seemed like a fun breed to have, and they are beautiful.
