    Ameraucana with strange breathing and sneezing, any advice?

    Ohhh I was confused because the chicken in my video is the one making that stridor sound, not the one in the background! 😆 Thank you SO much for your reply! The link to that other post was super helpful, that's the same sound and everything. I'll give her a once over and make sure her nostrils...

    Ameraucana with strange breathing and sneezing, any advice?

    What is strider? The other hen in the background (Olivia!) isn't showing any signs of being sick thankfully and that's what she normally sounds like. The hen in the video has sneezed a couple times that I've noticed. What should I do in the case of respiratory disease? I will definitely keep...

    Ameraucana with strange breathing and sneezing, any advice?

    Hi! This is my first time dealing with chicken sickness so I could use any and all advice, please! My Martha (11 month old Ameraucana) is making a sound every time she breathes. Video: I also caught her sneezing twice but I didn't catch that on video. She is otherwise acting normally...

    No it's not noticeably hot, I break up the ice and pour the water onto the ice. I swirl it around with my finger to make sure it's okay. I'd say the finished product is pretty lukewarm-room temp-y. PS. The chickens in your profile pic are gorgeous!!

    My girls won't drink water from waterer since it froze! Any advice?

    Hi fellow chicken lovers! I live in a place with typically mild winters and recently we've had temps below freezing. I don't have electricity at my coop/run so their water has been freezing overnight. I've been bringing out hot water every morning for my two girls and it stays liquid until...

    Olivia's mom & dad? (Olive egger parents ID)

    Thank you so much! I looked into Cuckoo Marans and Legbars and I think you're spot on. How neat! I love her little mohawk. Now I'm considering finding a little Legbar chick next spring for more mohawk cuteness! Thanks again :D

    Olivia's mom & dad? (Olive egger parents ID)

    Hi! I'm new here and this is my first post so please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong ☺️ This is my darling Olivia. I got her as a chick in March from my local feed store and she's an olive egger. I'm wondering what breeds her parents could be, just out of pure curiosity! What do y'all...
