Denagard works best if they are drinking on their own. I would inject IM with tylan 50 for 5 days at 1/2ml per day. Thanks Jason.

I'm sorry to hear that. It's sad that they will just drop dead like that. I was looking forward to breeding this Orpington because she was so beautiful and large. She was a funny soul, watching her run was hilarious and it lifted my spirits to watch her play. I really hate it. You just...

I know, makes you feel helpless. And worry about the other birds.

We live in Louisiana. I didn't think about maybe she still had something in her crop. She was so pretty and large! I will miss her, but it worries me on what really happened to her. It's been really cold here in Louisiana for the past week and raining last night but we have heat in the coop...

We had a large Orpington that was running around playing yesterday and was found dead this morning in the coop. She was just sitting there still warm but dead. My husband goes out in the early mornings and said she had something clear running out her mouth. She was fine yesterday and last...

Beautiful!

I'm hoping someone can help, bur my Orpington (about 4 months old) has started wobbling on his feet and seems to be stepping on his own feet. He is also off balance and his toes kind of turn up and shake a little. He just started this and we have no idea what it could be caused by. He is...

HI, Yes they are mounting some of the hens and they are definately roosters because there was a little hen in the clutch that hatched with them, 4 roo's and 1 hen. My husband just came in and said they are chasing hens and pulling feathers. But that doesn't mean they are fertile?

Hi All, I have 4 Rhode Island Red roo's. August 20th they will be 4 months old. I am wondering at what age they will be able to mate to my females. They are not crowing yet, and at times seem frightened of the older hens. Does anyone have any info on when they will crow and start to mate...

Hi I also am from West Monroe! Also, a newbie to raising chickens but am reading all i can find out. Hope to talk chicken with ya sometime!

Is there anyone in Louisiana that breeds pure breed poultry? Would like to get quality fertile eggs not to far away.

Thanks for your help. I'm watching him and get the feeling he is just not right. He won't eat or drink and so i put his little beak in the water nd he swallowed, but won't try to peck at the food. He does a lot of crying. Looks like his head is way to big for his body and he won't keep his...

Thanks for the link. This chick totally hatched himself. No assistance. I noticed the gooey blood on the incubator mat and saw he had the bloody long umbilicus. When I managed to get him out it just kept coming, and oozing out. It was the yolk. I just knew I had to stop it so I used the...

I have a chick that was born this morning and he had a long bloody umbilical cord with yolk at the site of the navel. It just keeps coming back out and I can tell it's yolk. Never seen this. I put some corn starch on it to stop it. Can someone tell me what to do? Is the baby going to die...

I don't know what I was thinking. I started my lockdown to early. The chicks are due this Sunday 4/25. I started last night around 10:00. Does anyone know if raising the humidity to early will kill my chicks or harm them? Thanks

My chicks were turned right, they just never even pipped the inside membrane. I have an egg turner on this incubator that rolls the eggs back and forth. As long as the large end of the egg is higher than the pointy end the egg is okay. You can lay them down or stand them on end or whatever...

I am hoping someone will have an answer for me because i am just sick. Spent the weekend waiting on some little silkies to hatch and every last one of them that survived were helped out because they lay pipped for 12-24 hours and made no progress at all They were sticking to the membrane. The...

Thank you! I had no idea. We are newbie's here. These are our first hatch and we are just trying to learn. I will certainly give it some time and get Jason to take a good look for mites when he gets home from work. My eyesight is terrible. It is always possible they have something, but i...

Thanks, They are in the house so maybe it is the feathers growing in. My husband just went by the feed store and the lady gave him some antibiotics for their water. She suggested he may have a cold. I'm keeping them with their eco-glow warmer and clean shavings. I tend to think it has to...

Hi all, I could use some help with my little 3 week old Rhode Island Red chick. He/she is constantly shaking it's head. I noticed it last nite while spending some time with them. He is the only one doing it, there are five i hatched out myself and they have been isolated in a clear sterlite...
