I have sometimes, mostly if I'm doing a big clean after not having time to do it, or more often in the Winter when my hens are staying in their basement set up. Typically my small flock (4 adult hens and 4 young chicks) isn't too messy.

Close enough! I wouldn't mind driving over. Can you message me for details? I tried and it wouldn't let me.

Prev owner said he's a coturnix, but I'm not sure honestly.

That'd be awesome!

Oops lol. I'm in MI, around the Detroit/Redford area.

Hiya. I rescued a young (11w now) male quail just a about a week ago. The owner was going to kill him, so I scooped him up. But now he's been screaming a lot. I feel bad having him alone, but at least he's safe. My family has fallen on hard times so my budget for friends is pretty dry. If...

Not so happy update 💔 I made the decision to euthanize after meeting up with a vet after work. She said the issues were very likely genetic, Thyme wasn't going to ever not be in pain, and it would spread to her other muscles before eventually ending her. I miss her dearly but I know she needed...

I forgot to mention, she's a light brahma. Which I've heard can have some issues. Of course I only saw that after getting her and two others. One of her siblings somehow escaped her pen and my yard and vanished, and I suspect had a neuro issue. The other was fine for a few days, then started...

Hiya. I've been having trouble with my 5m old hen. She started with just some trouble walking, one leg didn't want to work well. There were no injuries or signs of anything by look or feel by me or my mom, who has a vet tech background. I've been texting with other techs and a vet I'm close...

Hello! My name is Fritz. I recently got into backyard chicken-ing and have 5 hens right now, 4 are laying, one is still young. Juniper, Saffron, Ginger, Hazel, and Thyme. I'll be grabbing a few more next spring :) I joined since I've come here already for advice a good bit.
