I read molting is usually between June and early fall... what exactly is molting? This is our third year with chickens... I think, lol. I haven't really noticed any sort of molting signs before, unless it's more than just feather loss..? Sorry, three years and I still feel pretty new at...

I will have to look for those, thank you!!

They do get supervised free roam on pretty days, but other than that they're in their coop. Here's a recent photo.

Hi ya'll! So it's mid-June, I'm in NC. We had 3 roos with four hens (in one coop/run) until we recently rehomed 2 of the roos (a month or so ago) we rehomed them due to our hens getting wore ragged. We've sprayed Blu kote to help with feather regrowth, hasn't helped much. So my question is, is...

So someone uploaded a picture of their hen on a fb chicken page. It looks so much like mine, she says hers is a svart hona..? I looked it up, but they look almost identical to the ayam cemani...? I guess I won't know for sure until she reaches full maturity, huh?

Wow! I can see that too! So many possibilities o.O lol

See, that's what I assumed. I told my husband I think he wants to say they're ok to eat, but legally he cant, which is what's really messing with my mind. If that makes sense.

He did say he raises chickens, but still. I just don't know.

I know. What he said, he said to my husband, and my husband told me. My response to my husband was "so?" Lol. Its just everyone's telling me yes or no, but I wanted to hear it from the FARAD guy.

Ahh! Thanks, haha!

FWIW...? I created an egg selling fb page, a while back, but haven't sold eggs in a while. I do give a carton or two away of the (NOT) wazine eggs. I give them to customers I clean for, or send a couple cartons to work with my husband for the guys he works with.

A police officer (he was visiting the neighbors) basically said the same thing, that they're fine to eat... but idk, maybe if the FARAD guy wasn't so back and forth with his answers, then we'd be using them... but just the fact he couldn't give me a straight forward "yes or no" is still messing...

Chicken keeping pages on fb, at least 5 different people stated the same thing... such as "after treating with Wazine, your chickens are basically just lawn ornaments"

Wow! Thanks so much for all the info! I read through the link, and luckily I have plenty of coconut oil! I'll treat for the impacted crop, if it persists I'll figure out how to make a crop bra for her! Thank you so much! ♡

I got a lot of good feedback last night. Hoping for some more. My EEs are about 2 years old. One has had a swollen hard chest for the past 4 months. On fb, I was told to massage it, that itll go down, but it's only gotten bigger and harder? Is there anything more I can do for her? She's not...
