    Cockerel and pullet bonded pair?

    I have two 7 week old EEs, one pullet and one cockerel. Obviously, they were in the brooder together, but they are absolutely inseparable. Neither goes anywhere without the other and they rarely interact with the older birds (some 10 week olds and some 1 year olds). My question is, how normal is...

    Two mystery chooks

    Alrighty, I’ve got two babes here, the speckled Americana I’m really thinking is a roo based on leg size and redness of comb (~7wks old) The buff (~9-10wks old) had some troubles with tail feathers growing in that were still working on. But it’s face is MUCH more red than the other buff, whose...

    Bumblefoot or no?

    This was really hard to get a photo of, but it’s this normal looking?There’s a spiky texture to the bottom of her foot and a small soft lump in the center. Is it bumblefoot or something else or totally normal?

    Pullet feather problems - can I help?

    I have two month old pullets, all have been fully feathered for several weeks. All except for this one. We just got through treating a nasty scab on her back from her picking at herself (hence the purple stain, thanks Blu-Kote). Now her feathers are finally coming in there, but they look…...

    Marek’s Disease is the Worst

    My girl started stumbling Thursday night and made it to this morning with only some worse stumbling/leg collapse. I’ve seen most places that Marek’s usually progresses over 24-72 hours. None of the others are showing symptoms that I can tell. I’m taking this as a good sign?

    Marek’s Disease is the Worst

    I took our girl to the vet and the diagnosis was Marek’s, they put her down. I guess all we can do is hope for the rest of the flock and keep an eye out for symptoms? Silly question- is it strictly an avian disease or are other pets at any risk?

    Mushrooms causing neurological issues?

    I’ve been posting on here about my chicken that is having balance and coordination issues, falling down. I just was in her favorite foraging area and found this mushroom that appears to have been nibbled on. Does anyone know anything about mushrooms and if this could have caused it? She’s been...

    Chicken seems off balance?

    Ah yes, I have her within eyesight of them during the day and just bring her inside at night, but I was thinking if she’s not worse tomorrow, I’ll put her back with them. I’m hoping she’ll be better, but the same is better than worse. I was afraid it could be something like Marek’s. I’m not...

    Chicken seems off balance?

    Whoops!! I meant to say I’ve been giving her E, I got some B Complex as well today and gave her some of that. Do you think I should continue to keep her separated from the flock? I quarantined her when this started in case it was something contagious but everyone seems to think it’s vitamin...
