Yes I can try and do it tomorrow. It is weird like she does come out of it. She is in a trance but then like she also runs around and is acting feisty. But also zoning out/in a trace like Well. She’s back to normal today. She woke me up this morning very vocal and singing her egg song. Trying...

Thank you. All signs pointing to broody. I’m going to hold off on the vet for a few days. She doesn’t seem uncomfortable or in pain. No issues breathing or upper respiratory stuff. I’m gonna keep her inside a few days and keep monitoring her and it seems broody I guess I need to figure out how...

I will definitely check them all tomorrow. She just seems dazed. When she lays down she does pancake out too so I’m like that also seems broody.

I think her feathers are all there. I did give her an egg and she didn’t aggressively put it under her but she did roll it to herself and sit on it.

My 1 ye old barred rock this morning was puffy and sluggish. We immediately separated her. I checked up her vent for an egg but nothing. She’s pooped three times since this morning and it’s solid. No runny or worms. No blood in the poop. No mites I checked her. Vent looks fine. She’s eating. I...

Nope. They all look fine. She’s the only one doing it. She keeps rubbing it on her back and then scratching with her foot.

No lumps. No worms. It’s not cloudy. Looks healthy to be honest but she keeps messing with it.

Hi. My 6 month old leghorn is showing some irritation in her right eye. I noticed her wiping it in herself (you can see it on her feathers in the pics) and she keeps closing her eyes. There isn’t anything like visibly in there and maybe it’s a little lightly crusty. She’s also shaking her head...

Thank you. I’m going to use the spray for the interior of the coop and then get the dust when I can get to a tractor supply. I live far from one.

Thanks. I ordered permethrin spray and was going to use it today. Maybe I need to go to the feed store and buy the dust too?

I am so stressed out by this. I was cleaning the coop yesterday and noticed these tiny little mites. They’re like reddish brown color and active during the day it seems. I hosed the coop and bleached it and out DE in the cracks. I’m terrified they are red mites but maybe they are just harmless...
