this rooster has been suffering for months. His eye is completely rotted out. There are maggots. There are really bad picture s. How can I kill him without blood? I'm talking like medication. Also there are no available vets. I just want him to stop suffering😭

One day, after a baby bird we had rescued died and broke our hearts, we decided we wanted a chicken (A small one, that is.). We searched everywhere; nobody had any. This was July of last year. We asked feed stores, friends, EVERYBODY. Then, one day, we got a text from our friend. She had found a...

After 21 days of patience and a LOT of angry screeching, the hatching day for our little silkie mix is here! Around 8:30, I checked under her, to find her eggs with adorable little pips accompanied by little peeps! I can't wait for her babies (Two OEGB crosses, and 1 mystery egg) to emerge into...

I have 3 baby chicks on the way. They are being brooded by a silkie mama, and I just wanted to know if there are any tips of how to make sure they thrive/essential supplies and medications to give them.

These are three edited photos of some eggs we just candled. We got 2 Old English Silver Duckwings crossed with mystery roo, and one egg that we have no idea about!

I've personally only had chickens eaten years ago, when we forgot to lock up the coop :-(. So, does...

I haven’t been active in a while due to lack of time, but if you saw my other posts, you’d know our silkie hen was broody. Welp, those eggs didn’t hatch but she is trying again. These eggs of hers are 9 days old. Any of them look fertile?

Just candled her eggs and all three were infertile ☹️ Might try to get her some fertile ones from a friend. Will keep posted

Our new broody hen, a ten-month-old silkie mix, just pooped out 2 big roundworms. she had a big normal broody poop and then a diarrhea with worms in it. We aren't sure what to do, since the only medication makes her eggs unable to eat and may affect her babies in the egg (also we can't get it...

I have a 10-month-old silkie mix that recently started sitting. Every morning, she runs to her box to sit. She didn't have any eggs until a few hours ago and we decided to let her sit on it. We moved her to the garage, since her preferred box is outside in one of the coops. will she abandon her...
