Hello, recently got a new rooster and put him in with his ladies he grew up with next to another run with another roo in it. I didnt think it would be a problem, since there is a fence between them, but they constantly fought, and jumped at the chicken wire fence. My new roo jumped at it so much...
I hatched out two chicks a few days ago and neither of them did well. The first one had a breathing problem and paralyzed feet, not legs, like the toes. The other had split leg and the paralyzed toes. The first died a few minutes ago, and now this chick is all alone. I might move it into the...
So I was letting my hens free range, and I noticed she looked like she had spurs. She is 2 years old, give or take, has a wonderful rooster who is a great protector and doesn’t overrate, and lays about 5 eggs a week. She is a RIR, her name is Shiloh, and I don’t know what to do. She only has one...

I decided to buy ayam cemanis in hope to breed and sell them, I know quite a bit about them but if you have any tips on their proper breeding, best ways to sell, how much to ask for, and other things like that about the breed I would greatly appreciate it!
If you would be interested in buying...
For anyone who doesn’t know, ayam cemanis are a rare breed whom are black inside and out, including organs. They are showbirds, only laying about 170 eggs a year. Their eggs are light tan, happy birds with a good temperament. They don’t breed true, but mine would be high quality for anyone in...
One of our meatbirds we noticed had a lot of poop on her butt so we decided to check it out, and it turned out to be very bad flystrike. The hole is from her wing to her butt. We are very concerned for her, but really, really don’t know what to do. We are bathing her giving her peroxide spay and...
We hatched out some of our favorite silkie’s chicks, going for five but ending with four. We call them Spice, Brookie, Peaches, Strawberry Shortcake, shorty for short 😜. The smallest one, Spice, developed a severe case of split leg. We adjusted her cast/splint every day, until we had to leave to...

SO we just received 12 br chicks from 4h, and one is acting a little odd.
First of all, it is a lot smaller than the others, secondly, is is a lot less active. It eats and drinks perfectly, is quite plump, though not too fat. Is does run and forage sometimes, but mostly stands there with its...
So my California White has been down for the last month. About a month ago we split our flock, breeders and egg layers. We made additions, also, and for a period of time all of our original hens stopped laying. We discovered that the new hens brought along worms, so we treated those. All the...
