    Horrible molting experience

    I have thought of this , I am more inclined to giving them a better home , we had to move to a house that was not rooster friendly in a neighborhood . It wasn’t what we wanted but price wise we didn’t have a choice . Our neighbors have not complained , but I am concerned the roosters will make...

    Horrible molting experience

    I didn’t think of doing that , they haven’t seemed to develop spurs , my Roosters are black diamonds . Honestly we went through a move and I don’t think there is enough room at this point , I have tried to separate everyone evenly but I have hens that want to be with other hens . I have a space...

    Horrible molting experience

    Honestly it’s gotten so bad I’m embarrassed , no one has open cuts or sores . But they are just bare on their backs and when the feathers do try to come in , it just seems like they get ripped out

    Possible bumblefoot

    I recently posted about a chicken that was limping . I think it’s bumblefoot or some kind of infection , it has seemed to form a scab that I took off as much as I could . I’m scared to really cut into it but it doesn’t ooze pus. It does bleed really well though . I have been doing Epsom soaks...

    Possible bumble foot

    I will try tomorrow , it seems to have the typical scab of bumble foot I tried to pull it off and open it , but it’s very tough and I didn’t want to have to cut into too deep. I soaked it in epsom salt , sprayed with vetercin spray and wrapped it , i will definitely be checking on it tomorrow...

    Possible bumble foot

    I have a rooster that has started limping , he seems to have a bubble with possibly yellow pus underneath, I’m thinking it’s bumble foot and want to treat it . It’s in a toe not the foot pad . I’ve heard soaking in epsom salt helps and possibly wrapping the foot . What do you guys think ? This...

    Possible fungal infection

    She was in the sapphire gem brooder at rural king, but she is laying olive eggs, so I believe she is some kind of cross making her an olive egger, some of my Easter eggers have this coloring on their ears as well
