    Limping Hen with Green Poop

    Hi, my polish hen has had a limp for months now, I can't remember how far back. I'd wrapped it with vet wrap, over and over. She'd always get it off, and just pick at it relentlessly until she'd get it off. She seemed to get better, but just had a limp that never actually went away. So I stopped...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    Thanks! Ya, I seem to be in a good area for selling males and eggs! I know what you mean, I normally really had to work to get rid of the males! I think it's actually because there's a lot of predators around here, so people lose their roos unfortunately. That's great that you may have another...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    Hi! Both in the picture are cockerels. Out of the 8, I got 3 pullets and 5 cockerel. I actually purchased them off Craigslist for $10 a piece at 6 weeks old which I felt was a great deal! I was able to sell off the boys one at a time on Craigslist. I sold that darker one first, and basically one...

    Is Sweet broom/ French broom/ Spanish broom toxic to chickens?

    Hi! I'm putting in a small pond near where my chickens roam. I want to put some plants around it. I bought a sweet broom, a dianthus, and some alyssum I'm going to plant into the yard somewhere. I also have a French broom and a Spanish broom that are waiting for a spot in the yard as well. My...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    The dark gray is the only one out of the 8 with a comb like that. Out of the 8, I think I got 4-5 cockerel and 3-4 pullets though. Based off of large combs, cocky attitudes, and little hackles. But I read a thread on here where the girl had 8 silkie chicks, she thought all but 1 were males, and...

    I had darker ones like the one in the second picture too, but I gave them away. They were really aggressive!

    What are these 2 hens?

    Hi! I was given these hens a year and a half ago. They are about 2 years old. Does anyone know what they are? The black one is next to her silkie boyfriend, so you have some size reference. They are basically bantam sized. They lay a cream colored egg a little bigger that silkie eggs. The black...

    Silkies, 9 week old, both cockerels?

    Hi! My 2 chicks are 9 weeks old today. I bought 8 of them at 6 weeks old. These 2 are the cockiest by far, fight and pick on everyone else. There's a couple more that are very cocky as well, but these 2 are the top. I do know that fighting and cockiness are not the only determining factor...

    Using Safeguard de-wormer for chickens, I need help

    I just wanted to give an update on that lady. I gave everyone the 5 day safeguard mash, and that solved my problem. I specifically gave her a full dose by mouth, the 2 times, as directed. She did recover all the way and is all better now. So I just wanted to mention, it had to be the worms, and...
