    My hen is blind

    Our 6 month old hen has been acting strange the past few months; walking into fences, walking into other chickens and avoiding the flock completely. We had a feeling she was blind or something wrong neurologically. On closer inspection we’ve found her eyes are indeed cloudy which is...

    Spoiler alert: The coop made it to the finish line. Just three years and a whole life chapter later.

    Hey, hey! Remember me? We started to build a chicken coop and it never got finished….. until now. 3 years, a baby, many weddings and funerals, and a whole lot of chaos later, my coop is finally done! The only thing left is filling in the dirt around the edge of the run and extending the skirting...

    We are confused

    So we know the gender of all of our chickens other than these two…. Agatha (White) was believed to be female but her comb and overall attitude makes me wonder Lloyd (grey) was believed to be a male because he grew his comb out at the same time as Rip (I’ll add him at the bottom. Rip and...

    Gender

    I'm posting again lol for help with my light brahmas. They look so much different. I'm wanting a rooster, hopefully the one ine the first picture is one. It still has a fluffy tail, no actual tail feathers yet. The other one has tail feathers. They're around 8 weeks old

    Duccle’s porcelain’s and Millie’s

    I know they are very young still approx 3 weeks old but I noticed 2 are noticeably larger than the other 3. Has anyone that raised these before noticed that the larger ones were roosters ? I’m hoping to have 2 roosters anyways so it won’t be a bad thing! The tail also looks bigger already .

    Gender guesses / what breeds do they look like... (they are backyard mix so the breed part is just for fun)

    These are my 6 chicks. They are about 8 weeks old. Back yard mixes. I have my suspicions about some of them sex wise. Just want a second opinion before I return some of them. Breed is just for fun I know they are mixes so nothing will be accurate. Double points for anyone who can guess who is...

    Fluffy Tailfeathers

    Hello, I have one hen that has had fluffy back feathers for maybe a month now. I routinely check her for lice and the q-tip looking egg bundles, but I haven't seen anything of the sort. The feather shafts look normal and my other birds are fine. She does seem a bit smaller/lighter weight than...

    Gender?

    I have 3 7 week old chickens I need help sexing. I'm pretty sure the brown one is female. The two light brahmas im unsure of. The middle chicken looks different than their sibling. Comb is different and wattles are more red. I know it's still early just wanna see if anyone has any opinions.

    What’s wrong with my ducks foot?

    Good morning, does anyone know what is going on with my duck’s toe? She doesn’t bumblefoot but her toe suddenly swelled up a few days ago. I tried feeling it to see if it was broken, but it seems like she can bend her toe ok, but she flinches when I touch it. I’m not sure what happened. Any...
