Looking Like A Roo
Meet our feathered enigma, "Looking Like A Roo"! This cheeky chick is one of four sapphire gems we rescued from the "pullet" bin at Rural King, and it seems to be strutting its stuff a bit too confidently for my liking. With a noticeable white dot on its head and a rapidly growing peacomb, I suspect this little one is not a hen after all. While still figuring out how to spot barring on its feathers, I can’t help but notice it’s the oldest and fastest-growing of the bunch. It’s also the friendliest, always the first to greet me at the brooder door and eager to chill on my arm. Fingers crossed it’s one of the rare 10% that turns out to be a hen!

URGENT - Please Help
URGENT - Please help our delightful little friend, Ferocious Beast! She has always been our happiest, most energetic feathered companion. Recently, however, she has been slowing down and showing signs of distress. Today, we noticed her puffed up and closing her eyes more than usual. While she still managed to run around and play a bit, we kept a close eye on her. An hour later, we saw her twitching and gagging, so we carefully placed her in a cozy cat carrier for some rest inside the house. Although she started to fall asleep, she suddenly stood up and displayed concerning behavior. We are genuinely worried and want to help her without causing more harm. Has anyone experienced this before?
Mom's chicken watching a short film
I stumbled upon a heartwarming moment that perfectly blended my mom's love for her chicken with a powerful message. As I watched her cradle her feathered friend while they both focused intently on a short film, I felt compelled to capture the scene. Little did I know that the subtitles flashing across the screen would touch on the sensitive topic of bullying—a struggle I'm currently facing. The unexpected timing of that moment made it feel all the more poignant and meaningful. It reminded me that even in the quirkiest situations, important conversations can arise. I’m truly grateful I snapped that picture, and I sincerely hope for an end to bullying everywhere.
