Thank you both for your replies. She doesn't even come for treats

My giant beautiful Sussex hen is sick, she doesn't move (I picked her up easily), eat or drink. Yesterday they were all eating a big molded apple. The time I realised there was nothing left, not a single seed. I think she has eaten a lot, as she is big and dominant. Today she's lethargic...

Is this my birthday present ? Such a small bag compared to the 365 eggs I laid and gave you.

do you mean cancer or canker ? As regards mealworms, he's usually sleepy but when he sees me giving worms he comes first I think he's got an anemia and needs proteins. If it's bad for him, what should I feed him ?

Yes he has grit, mealworms, hen food. I dewormed him 2 days ago but no improvment so I'm afraid it's a disease

My Serama rooster eats a lot, his crop is big in the evening, but his comb is very very pale (light pink) and he has lost one quarter of his weight. He's very weak and doesn't want to leave his cage. There is undigested food in his droppings. That means he's as light as a feather. What can I do ?

Hey Master ! Special offer for you, 30 mealworm$ a ride !

I'm sorry for your loss. One morning I found my favorite naked neck hen dead. She was laying huge eggs. It wasn't due to egg bound, it wasn't cold, I still don't know what happened. It was so unexpected that I was sad all day and night, and still think of her. I had a rooster who died due to...

Any idea of my chick sex 2 weeks later ?

2 weeks later, here are five pictures of my chick. So he's supposed to be 8 or 10 week old. He has not grown a lot : does it mean a pullet ? or a problem in development ? His weight is 500 grams or 1.1 lb

No state for me, except my state of mind. I live overseas.

Here it is hot, really hot, and my chickens don't really like it, they sit under a bush and wait for me to bring food ah ah. Me neither. I have to check many times if they still have water. If not, I have to wait 5 minutes before the water from the garden hose is just warm. I could make tea with it

I agree with Eggcessive. I've had a chick who had been stomped on and couldn't move his neck. I gave him vitamin E (actiselen) and he could move his neck again

My roosters are named : Matthew, Edward, Litchee (a Pekin roo...), Molly, Master (of pullets), Oggy, Kevin, Noe, Oscar, Label, Lady (dutch roo), Maxine.

The red hen is thinking : - oh shit, I came for my daily hug, and these b-hen-tches followed me ; mom can't squeeze my body like she does when I'm alone with her. Will have to change my schedule.
