I need help identifying my 2 roosters! The white one, and colorful one. I’ve recently been given them, and am clueless on what breed they could be. please help!
This can't be happening, no way one of my babies is getting sick now.
For context, my dad's boss is looking after my chickens while my folks and I are moving (stuck at an AirBnB in the interim, chickens are allowed), and I'm 20mins away from them.
We also had a good couple days of straight...

Hi guys. I need some advice please. A friend had gave me bird eggs they found earlier. We don’t know how far along they are. I did the float test on both of them. One of them sinks. However, when I did the candle light method on it, I saw veins. It appears to still have a yoke inside so maybe...
Im super worried about one of my ducks, she looks to be in really bad condition and i don't know what to do. She has feathers missing and one of her wings is drooping but the thing i'm most worried about is her face. Her eyes are red and watering and her face is covered in clumps of mud and poo...

Hi friends! I have four beautiful hens, and tonight when I was putting them to bed, I noticed one was injured. It was one of my other birds picking on her, not a wild animal. She has a wound on her comb which is bleeding a lot all over the place. I have had this issue in the past and didn’t...

So I've gathered that my duck feed is eaten more by wild birds than the ducks! I keep the ducks' food and water in their coop but I leave the door open so they can enter and exit to eat and drink throughout the day, however, this means that the wild birds that come to my backyard do the exact...
I'm new to backyard chickens as I am in the midst of determining the breeds and genders of my two ducks. When I first got them, I was told (by a person who was unsure) that they were Muscovies... they're definitely not. At the moment both ducks are 10 weeks old. Cielo is the slightly larger duck...
