    Not sure what was wrong with my Hen

    My buff Orpington, approx 10 months old started to act a bit strange. I found her hiding and not with her flock and chicks per usual. We just lost a chick but unsure what happened to it.

    Quail died, need help diagnosing

    Hey everybody, Unfortunately I found one of my button quail dead this morning, and I'd like to see if there are any signs I should look for with the body to make sure it wasn't a disease or parasite that the other quail in the cage could get. I thought the cause might have been dehydration...
