We have a 26 week old Cinnamon Queen pullet that has been laying for a few weeks without any pause for concern. Her first egg was the cutest little fairy egg and all eggs since then have been on the smaller size but perfectly normal. Great egg shells! While our free ranging today, she “laid”...

Just came out to the run to check on my chickens. Saw one of my 14 week old girls poop this out. All poops up until this point have looked normal, maybe a lot more watery due to the ridiculous heat where we are. They all free ranged for an hour or two this morning. Thoughts?

Okay, y’all - this sweet little love is almost 14 weeks old and has always been smaller than our other girls, and even feathered out much slower (her wing feathers were always drastically shorter and took forever to get her tail feathers in). Even now, her tail feathers look drastically...

When I took my almost 4 week old chicks outside today, I noticed that one of my Midnight Majesty Marans has this weird thing growing out of her feet above her toes. She has them on both sides. Could it be a feather growing in? The other Midnight Majesty Maran has feathered feet while she does...

I would love to start giving my 3-3.5 week old chicks some snacks, even if it’s just to explore and have fun. They’ve only had organic chick starter and grower feed up until now with some occasional chick grit sprinkled on top (some of them like eating smaller pieces of their pine shavings...

I have 8 chicks of differing breeds that are about 3-3.5 weeks old (brought from TSC on 05/17 the day they arrived so not 100% sure on age). When can I start bringing them outside in a covered pen to explore? They would not be left unattended and it’s fairly predator proof. We are located in SC...

I have 8 girls I got last Wednesday from TSC. Today I tried switching from paper towels to pine shavings for the second time. The first time they seemed to get overheated and ended up drinking a ton of water, so I removed the shavings and waited another few days. Today I tried again and the same...

I have two chicks I bought from TSC this past Wednesday labeled as Cinnamon Queens. One of them has noticeably more tail feathers (the other still just has a fluffy bum) and much longer wing feathers. I know Cinnamon Queens are sex-linked but would feather growth be this different? Could there...

We picked up 8 chicks from TSC on Wednesday. Yesterday they started with loud chirping and some watery stools. Attached is a picture of some of their stools underneath the brooder plate. Any suggestions? They all seem to be eating and drinking well and are very active birds.
