I just rehomed my two roosters due to one attacking me. I wanted to hatch some eggs while they are still fertile. Someone told me they would be ok to hatch as long as they didn't get below 50 some odd degrees. I've been collecting them about 3 times a day so they don't get to cold but they have...

I'm going to give my flock of 10 chickens who are over 18 weeks old Wazine 17 today but I'm confused on how much to give them. It says on the bottle to give chicks over 6 weeks of age for each 100 birds 2 fl oz in 2 gl of water.. but I only have 10 chickens. How much should I give?

I have two chickens with watery poo and one of the two has green in the poo. I have a good hunch what one has the green but the other with the watery poo I'm not sure yet. I'm not sure what could be causing it or how to treat them. Under the roosts there were two "puddles" in the sand. I say...

I have 8 BO and BR.. one is a runt who I think is a roo and 3 other roos they are all 12 weeks old. Today I got 3 EE hens that are about a year and half. The lady I got them from said she never had problems introducing new chickens and they hers were non aggressive and if mine weren't they...

My runt BO is 11 weeks old. She looks more like a 6 weeks or so old. She does not look to be getting any bigger in the last several weeks. When she was younger she had feet sores so we separated her then she felt with being picked ok. She got a few sores from that but seemed to heal ok. I read...

I am thinking about putting sand in out coop but I have three questions to ask that I couldn't find the answers to. 1.) Why do you change out the sand every six months if it doesn't hold moisture or poo. (Maybe a dumb question) 2.) What do you do with all of the sand when you do change it out...

I have 8 chicks. 2 Bared Rocks and 6 Buff Orphingtons. They are 5 weeks except for one buff she's 6 weeks. I recently had to isolate my runt due to feet sores. She is mostly better and we decided to put her back with the flock. I tried a few days ago and all the other chicks chased her around...

The smallest of my 8 chicks has me somewhat worried. I called him the runt but I'm not even sure if chickens have runts. lol One of my 8 was a week older than the rest. The runt was born on the same say as the others but it is so much smaller than the rest. It almost looks a week behind the rest...

About a week or two ago we have 8 baby chicks. 2 Bared Rocks and 6 Buff Orphingtons. Everyone seems healthy and I've been feeding them meal worms about once a day from hand so they get use to me. Most of them love the treats but both rocks and one orph seem to not care one way or the other...

Do you have any ideas for brooder feeder and waterers? My peeps keep knocking over the feed and water.. My small bowls are not working =) I hate to spend the money on something I'll only use a few weeks.

I have six 6 chicks that a friend of mine got about 6 weeks ago. We are going to build out coop this weekend and they still aren't ready to be out in the spring weather. But I was wondering on nice days should I let them out of the box in the grass for a bit? Will they come back if I do? Also...
