Looking for gallina padovana chickens in the Sd, Mn area

Thank you, we treated her and she was doing good until she molted. She just went downhill after that, no symptoms but lethargic and barely eating. She died a few days ago

Thank you so much. We have a few books but were stumped. I'll call the Hotline tomorrow. Hopefully it doesn't cost a lot to have an autopsy done

I hope so too. I can't handle losing another baby. Thought I was going to cry again today. I'm such a wimp

Don't know, she had bumblefoot about a month ago, we treated it and then she molted and she has just been lethargic since. We had to bring her to her food and water which she barely ate and she lost tons of weight. No other symptoms. She passed away 2 days ago.

I'm not positive on what happened to her but nothing else seemed to be wrong. I also don't know a lot about chicken illnesses. I have no idea who to go to for help if anything else happens

Does anyone know of vets that will treat chickens in the Sioux Falls area?

Our hen had bubblefoot about a month ago which we treated at home and it seemed healed up and she was doing good. Then she molted and throughout the weeks she went downhill. We brought her to her food and water daily. She ate and drank half heartedly. Today I found her dead. Could this be...

Any idea what is wrong or what to do for her?

Good luck

My husband said I could get one more hen, so we compromised and we got 4.....hahahaha. We found some girls, two red star and two cochins. One orange and one barred. They are soooo cute. Now to get all of the girls to roost in the coop again, instead of our top step. Any ideas? The little ones...

I'm so wanting to get another hen. Just one. One that Laurlays dark brown or Olive colored or speckled eggs. I already have a teal and two tan egg layers. Any ideas where I can get one of them in the Sioux falls area or within an hour or so away. I've been looking forever.....I need a chicken...

Well I've been wanting to get another girl for awhile but we are definitely waiting. So far my girls seem in great health. I've thought about selling the eggs but so far we just give them away. I have been periodically putting garlic and vinegar in their water to boost their immune systems...

Thank you for the answers, I also have a question about one of my girls. I noticed a month or so ago that she was coughing, nothing bad and not very often. She seemed good otherwise. What if anything should I do for her? Also what do I do for this same hen because she is laying wrinkly eggs. We...

Hello, I'm not sure if I missed information on here about this yet. What precautions should backyarders be taking because of the bird flu? Any changes in collecting eggs, free ranging, cleaning coops, etc? Thanks, Angela
