My chickens chased after the raw purple onions I gave them. I hope they will be ok! They loved them & gobbled them up so fast. I thought onions have a ton of health benefits.

Ive been having issues with my flock over the last 7 months, 11 birds died. Have waiting this long to get necropsy because I was unaware of what to do. Took sick chickens to the vet, didn't work and they died. Shipped one out to get Necropsy, diagnosis was Pox, which didn't add up to the chicken...

Finally found a diagnostics lab with a very kind vet to help me! I literately talked to Dr Ficken multiple times and he never rushed me or made me feel stupid or like I shouldn't be raising chickens, in which other vets have over these last few months. He was willing to work with me and gave me...

My wry neck chicken has had a bad spell over these last 2 weeks. Hardly can come out of twisted neck. Been giving her Selenium, Vit E, Performance Poultry Probiotics & Electrolytes. Unsure what to do now. I have had to hand feed her while holding her neck and continuing to unswist her neck. Any...

UPDATE: I had three silkies die recently. Shipped them off to get necropsy because everything pointed to Marek's Virus. Thank the Lord that I finally got some results: COCCIDIOSIS- Eimeria Necatirx.Treatable with Amprolioum and preventable for future up bringing. So thankful. :) Wish I would...

He was a gorgeous Rooster! so sorry for your loss.

Thank you for this post! How's your chicken now?

Do you have pics of the marek's split posture? Mine feel ill for a few days wings dropped & wobbly-then either bounce back or go downhill. Droppings are runny/smelly/and usually green. Not eating, drinking little to none, laying down, head droops, eyes close, breathing slows-see a lot of butt...

The birds that have survived Outbreaks were given: selinium, vit E, poly-vi-sol, lavender & oregano essential oil. Either in their water or mixed in with feed. I've also added rooster booster to all flock feed routinely. Apple cider vinager in water routinely, sometimes add 2 drops of oregano &...
