On the caption contest thread, and on other threads, I try to post a photo but it loads 100% and is blank. The only thing that I can do is delete it. Since I got back to BYC, that's when it started happening. When I reloaded the page it either showed or vanished completely, and that was...

My BPR, Kali, got a strange lump behind her earlobe. It started in December but I thought it was simply swollen because she got pecked, and that it was going to go away soon. But a week ago, I noticed that it got super huge. In this photo, taken in December, you might be able to see it forming...

My sweet Little Bananas has impacted crop. I know how to treat this, but when I massaged her crop, food spewed out of her mouth. She is definitely lethargic. Little Bananas is one year old and this morning her poop was very stringy and stuck out of her vent. Of course I pulled this out. She is a...

Muffin has been having leg problems for a few months now. I am not sure if she was hatched with that problem. She is roughly four months old, and is an EE. One of her legs seems to be slightly swollen in the hock and leg. The other leg is normal. Also, it seems that one of her legs is in the...

My hen Ginger was being lethargic and standing on the roost yesterday so I took her off. She pooped a normal-ish poop when I took her out of the coop. I put her in my chicken hospital, a dog cage with some mash and wet-ish layer feed. I heard of a few herbs that are good for chickens and I added...

I want to get my chickens some garlic but I'm unsure how much to give them. I have ten hens and one rooster, how much do I give them? Do I add it in their water?

I had a hen, Bananito, who I am supposing had an issue with an eggshell gland. I processed her this morning because she stopped laying eggs. When she did lay eggs though, the eggs were very weak shelled. The last egg she laid had a strong eggshell on the bottom, but only membrane on top. I'm...

I have an approx ten week old EE pullet. She is displaying some symptoms of slipped tendon. She doesn't want to put weight on her left leg, and doesn't want to eat or drink even though her crop's empty. I force fed her mash and egg yolk yesterday, and also force-watered her but it seemed she...

I had a 3-year-old hen, Mabel, that was showing strange symptoms. She was lethargic, and had some kind of yellowish-green poop stuck to her backside when she normally doesn't have poop stuck at all. There were no other symptoms displayed, but she wouldn't even eat raspberries which she normally...

Hi all, I have a hen called Bananito. She is approx one year old, maybe less because I got her as a pullet in June. Last year she laid nice hard shelled eggs but in mid May she started laying real weak shelled eggs. They have lots of oyster shells and ground up limestone to eat, and I give her...

All it is. Just a thread to talk. @RoyalChick @notabitail @Ponypoor ? @Sally PB @Marie2020 if I missed anyone please tell me, and I will tag you guys!

Not again some of you will say. Yep it's Lhicken again, that same old Lhicken. She is my favorite chicken. Must I wonder why the favorites always get sick and hurt??? Anyway, she is very lethargic, and it seems to be "taxing" just to stand for her. I gave her DE, not sure if it'll help or not...

My "rescue" pullet Dawn has just been making exceedingly weird noises. It sounds like a sneeze with a little crow-ending. I had some hens that were getting picked on so I put some "stop-pick" stuff on there that is supposed to be repulsive to them. Do you think she ingested this stuff and is...

I've got a very cool-looking pullet called Ellie. She looks like a ghost. I'm not sure of the dad, but I think it's this guy. The mom is this lady This is what the lady-in-waiting (Ellie) looks like. Another picture of daddy with one of his ladies (not the mom of this pullet) And another...

Help! My sister was over and she was checking for eggs in the big coop, but there is another space right next to "General Population" which the GP door opens up into. In GP there is a rooster, and in the "outside chickens" (The chickens that are injured or just are getting bullied too much)...

I set eggs from my neighbour's EE's and a few of my blue ones, so I have some coloured eggs. I was planning to have a coloured egg hatchalong :)

My 1 week old chick is smaller than the rest even though she hatched at about the same time. This morning she was lively as ever, but now she is lethargic and standing in the corner doing nothing and closing her eyes. She is also attracted to heat. This is my favorite chick please help save her

I am right now kinda scared. I bought 50 meat chicks. One of them died yesterday, and now today one of them has a problem with it's leg. There is swelling on the leg and it looks red. What can I do for it? I don want to lose it.

Some of you know my hen Mrs. Clean-egg, who I saved after she was attacked by other chickens (cannibalism). I took her in for a bath this morning and she was really lethargic, then she let go a yellow poop. That morning she had let go a white poop. She is drinking lots, but not eating very...
