    Coccidis or something else?

    Needing advice on my young Speckled Sussex. About a week and a half ago I noticed he and another chick were acting sickly. Still eating and drinking but very slow moving, droopy eyes and very sleepy. Put electrolytes and probiotics in the water and put terramycin in the eyes. Other chick made...

    Potential Cross Beak

    Hi! I noticed my polish pullet has a gap between her beak a few weeks ago. As she gets older I feel like the gap is bigger. It doesn't seem to bother her or keep her from being able to eat or drink, but just curious if anyone else has had this before? It doesn't cross its perfectly straight but...

    Curious what yall think the grow out will be for this little one? I've never seen one with this coloring as a chick. Only Silkies in the breeding pen so not a mix

    Vent Gleet? Egg Bound? Heat Exhaustion?

    In Louisiana and it's over 100 degrees. We lost one last year from the heat so this year we put big industrial fans for them and they're completely in the shade. All the others seem fine but she looked REALLY rough when I got home. I thought maybe egg bound but there's stuff coming out of her so...

    Silkie Sexing

    Hi! I know there is no full proof way to know until they crow or lay and egg, but just looking for input on what it looks like at this point? Behavior wise very pullet, the breeder is a friend of mine and it is the smallest and most chill of all of them. No comb growth, etc. It is 6 weeks old!

    Bantam Cochin/Duccle Frizzle Pullet or Cockerel?

    Curious yalls thoughts on pullet or cockerel? I bought it around 3 weeks old from a local breeder, mom was mille fleur duccle, dad was black frizzle cochin rooster. It was the smallest of the group, like half the size of the others. It's very skiddish towards me but it's very fiesty. Really...
