    Roo or pullet?

    I have a 5 week old olive egger. I know it is too early to tell if it is a rooster or hen but do olive egger pullets normally have combs that dark at 5 weeks?

    My pullet won't or can't stand up!

    2 days ago my pullet came out of the hoop coop limping. No matter how much space you give them they like to pile up like circus performers on the roosts so I thought perhaps the Brahma sat on her. We checked her legs and hips. Everything felt fine. I thought she would just work it out. She...

    Lethargic hen for 3 days with darkening comb.

    our 6 month old jersey giant has been hiding out on her own for three days. We had another hen get sick a month or two ago and recover after a day so we weren’t too worried at first. But now her normally bright red comb seems to be darkening and she’s really low energy. I thought it looked...

    Darkening Comb on Cockerel

    My serama/d'uccle mix cockerel had a completely normal looking comb until about a month ago. Since then, it has progressively gotten darker, and is now almost black. I am especially worried because this cockerel was born with a split in his breastbone. Also, his siblings still have perfectly...

    What Breed of Chicken is this?

    I’ve scoured the internet plugging in the descriptive features of this chicken and I can’t find one that even looks close! We just acquired her and one white leghorn from a friend who’s moving. She was a wanderer who arrived at a nearby farm, so her past is a mystery! Is her comb supposed to be...
