    Hen limping but no obvious/visible foot injury

    Today I let her feet soak in some warm epsom salt water. she got really stressed and kept panicking but i managed to calm her down with some towels. i put some blu-kote over the potential bumblefoot, and then wrapped it. i stayed outside with her after putting on the wrap for a while, to make...

    ***ENDED*** Chicken left about to hatch eggs, ice cold, can they still hatch?

    ah, im sorry that they didnt make it. on the bright side, if you still want chicks, you get the chance to either a- try again and go thru the fun process of hatching again or b- go and buy some bucketlist breeds that youve wanted for a while :)

    ***ENDED*** Chicken left about to hatch eggs, ice cold, can they still hatch?

    depends on how long they've been out. personally, i've had eggs i thought were long gone hatch. (my story is that i had a broody hen, we let her hatch some eggs, and a few days before hatch day, my grandma accidentally collected my hen's eggs with all the other eggs. we found them far into the...

    Hen limping but no obvious/visible foot injury

    I gave her a bath to try to soak her feet so I could clean them and get a better look. I took more pictures Above is the foot that is noticeably bothering her. Below is pictures I took of her other foot, which also looks a bit suspicious.

    Hen limping but no obvious/visible foot injury

    Hello, I have an orpington hen who is limping on her left foot(left foot being the hurt one) I checked her foot and bottom leg for Scaly Leg and for bumblefoot and any other injuries.

    sick hen and swollen rooster face

    im more concerned about the hen because she’s not active. the rooster is still active, just has had a lump on his face for the past couple days. he’s acting as normal. but the hen isnt moving, and the way shes standing almost looks like a tom’s strut. shes very lethargic and isnt eating much...

    My beautiful mutt, Pepper

    Another super cool thing about pepper, and 2 other chicks we hatched, is they have heterochromia. they get it from their dad. Oreo, the other white ameraucana mix, has it the coolest- hers is split down the middle. Pepper’s is most like his dad’s, where it’s more blotchy, but still beautiful.
