    Limping Hen with Green Poop

    I thought her crest might be a problem. I have checked it, and she can see, but obviously not fully. In that picture, she was extra pulled in though. I'll definitely give it a trim. Her injury is on her right hock joint/ elbow joint. It's always stayed bigger than the other. I haven't found any...

    Limping Hen with Green Poop

    She's had this limp so long, and the joint where it's injured still has a large bulb. It's the hock joint or elbow of her right leg. I had a hen get bumblefoot for the first time ever. I'd never delt with bumblefoot before until last year. I had my fully free roam rooster of that same breed get...

    Limping Hen with Green Poop

    Hi, my polish hen has had a limp for months now, I can't remember how far back. I'd wrapped it with vet wrap, over and over. She'd always get it off, and just pick at it relentlessly until she'd get it off. She seemed to get better, but just had a limp that never actually went away. So I stopped...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    Thanks! Ya, I seem to be in a good area for selling males and eggs! I know what you mean, I normally really had to work to get rid of the males! I think it's actually because there's a lot of predators around here, so people lose their roos unfortunately. That's great that you may have another...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    Hi! Both in the picture are cockerels. Out of the 8, I got 3 pullets and 5 cockerel. I actually purchased them off Craigslist for $10 a piece at 6 weeks old which I felt was a great deal! I was able to sell off the boys one at a time on Craigslist. I sold that darker one first, and basically one...

    Is Sweet broom/ French broom/ Spanish broom toxic to chickens?

    Hi! I'm putting in a small pond near where my chickens roam. I want to put some plants around it. I bought a sweet broom, a dianthus, and some alyssum I'm going to plant into the yard somewhere. I also have a French broom and a Spanish broom that are waiting for a spot in the yard as well. My...
