So I picked up one of my chickens today after being away for a week or two and she has these little round, black mites under her wing. What can I use do kill/get rid them? Preferably something I can order online because I live in a small town that’s vet sucks. Tia

Hey, So yesterday night I was going out to lock my roosters up when I saw this hen laying on the ground. She looked like she was sun-baking but without the wing. It’s her left leg and it has no response to a perch or anything. She can’t walk. No injuries. I’m just going to let her rest and see...

Does anyone know what the hole on the lid is used for? :D Ta.

Just wondering what these hens X these roosters could potentially look like. Not like the Silkies crossed Silkies but like the Silkie crossed OEGB. :) Thanks Roosters: Silkie (white) Plymouth Rock Sussex (But he never got coloured neck feathers 🤷‍♀️) Lillian Small black and white D'Uccle cross...

We are going to get quail soon and we haven't had quail for like 10 years. So just a few questions. What type of cage? Would a modified rabbit hutch be OK? Or would it be better to build one from scratch? Should the cage be resting on the ground, and should it have like, an upstairs bit? What...

All my chickens lay eggs but I can't figure out why this one won't. Anyone know? 🤔

What's better? Fahrenheit or Celsius? Which one makes the most sense? To me, Fahrenheit makes no sense, why wouldn't you have it at 0 (degrees) at the temperature water freezes? :idunno

Hi, sorry, me again. :oops: How do you delete draft articles? I just can't figure it out!

Every now and then this comes up and it's kind of annoying.

So today this family was dropping some wood/old pallets and the like at the local tip- dump, whatever- and someone just randomly drove up, into the tip- dump, who cares- and wound their window down, and threw, yes, threw a baby goat out the window. It is maybe... 3, 4 days old. The family picked...

Should I get my hair cut short? Like, short, short. I've always had shoulder to chest length hair and I'm getting frustrated with my hair. Also, hair can grow back. (If you didn't know ;) ) Has anyone here gone from long to short hair?

Facts: The chick is nearly 2 months old. Hatched at the right time, on the 21st day. No complications with his hatch. No problems with any other chicks from his hatch. He can see. Not any problems with his eyes. No lice/mites. Normal poo. Eating, not skinny. Symptoms: Tripping over his own...

Anyone on this site written a book? :fl

Quandong is 4 months old tomorrow, and is a Coronation Sussex. (S)he is annoying me. I can't decide what (s)he is. Her/his comb is paleish, but quite large. (S)he has curly? tail feathers, maybe her/his sikles or hackels or whatever that bit is called. Her neck feathers (sickle/hackel, can't...

Read the title. ;) (Also, if you check the box 'Never Tried It' then you must try it)

Young albino sparrow. Do you think it's a boy or girl? Going to catch it soon, tomorrow maybe. So still waiting for better pictures! I think girl, but just randomly guessing! I think it's about a month old? (Albino birds are really quite rare!) (Fun fact: I hate sparrows)

I've got a seven year old hen who has bumblefoot. Never dealt with it before. Some of you might know this hen from all the other trouble she's caused. (Buddy? Does that name ring a bell?) I'll get some photos soon. I noticed she was limping yesterday. I wrapped it and put iodine on it. Today I...

Okay. I always have random questions. Just random. But no one I know seem to have the answer to them. So I thought I'd make a thread to see if anyone has the answers! I prefer getting my answers off real people. And not just off the internet. Anyone can use this thread!

*Just read the title, and answer the question*
