Hi, I have 11 golden comets (4 years old) and know that they're on borrowed time now. I just have a hunch something contagious and possibly preventable/treatable is going on. They are really healthy birds and were doing fine up until the last few weeks. Things I've noticed and deemed normal...

Hello! I have a flock of 4 year old Cinnamon Queens/Golden Comets. I know they aren't supposed to live long, lots of reproductive issues, etc., but I still feel that something treatable is amiss. It's been on/off and has me so confused. It looks like vent gleet. How is that treated, and could...

Hello! I have 11 hens, not sure if they're golden comets or cinnamon queens. But definitely production breed. I got 9 of them in 2020 at a "brand new to egg-laying" age and the other 2 last year. I'm wondering if it's normal for them at age 3 to look a little more scraggly and for egg production...

Hello everyone, I went to collect eggs today and saw this in the nesting box with the other eggs. Any idea what it is? About the size of an egg. I didn't touch it, explore it, etc. any more than taking the photos because I was so shocked and upset that something could be wrong with one of my...

Last Friday, (10/21), three of my beautiful hens went missing. I had hope that they would return until I found concrete evidence. On Sunday (10/23), I noticed a pile of feathers where they usually free range. My guess is the pile was there all along but I didn't notice it. There was no carcass...

Hey All! One of my laying hens has had this red squishy mass for a few months. Initially I thought impacted crop, but after doing research when I first noticed it, I decided it looked normal and havent given it much thought. It didn't look overly large compared to the other hens. It doesn't...

I have 10 hens who have all been laying for about a year now. I've experimented with feed over the past year and I'm still on the fence as to whether I want them on organic feed or not. I've noticed repeatedly that when I buy the cheap feed (Producer's Pride 16% layer feed from Tractor Supply)...

Just found this from one of our roughly 10-11 week old chicks. I've never seen anything like that before. Does this poop look healthy or do they require treatment for something? They're on a Dumor brand 20% chick starter/grower feed. Thank you!

I've been raising these little angels since they were a few weeks old. We got them from a neighbor with no background info. My best guess is they're around 8-12 weeks old, but I'm brand new to chickens so any specific age info is also appreciated. What type of chickens are they? And does that...

Hello! We recently got two baby chicks from a friend. I have no idea what their life was like before we got them, but the bag of feed they gave us was just scratch. So I'm assuming (?) the food the chicks were raised on was just this scratch. I'm not sure if they would have survived on scratch...
