Well her name is Roxy, when I first notice it that's what's was thinking. But it seems to be growing now.

Oh have a seven month old pullet with a very large bump on her back. It's just off center towards her right rear and covering about one third of her back. It seems to be getting bigger every day. I've gone through her feathers and haven't found any kind of wound or opening on it. She didn't make...

I'm sorry for your loss, you seem to be knowledgeable and handling it much better than I would have. Well done!

Welcome, do you already have a coop set up or a barn. That would probably make a difference in some of the recommendations.

Adding a light in not an immediate cure to the slowing down of egg laying caused but a change in natural light. My understanding is 15 hours of light a day for them to generate an egg a day as their body will allow. Fluctuations in light, protein, life cycle and such only assist in the function...

She need grit in her craw to help grind up her feed so she can absorb it. I would also recommend some free choose calcium for her to make strong eggs. enjoy

I've just recently turned on my light and timer. I've gone from 5 or 6 from my seven to 1 or 2, but I also have several going into molt.

Thank you for your suggestions, but I think it is more a case of pay back than calcium deprived. They have free a choice calcium feeder available right next to their feeder.

EldMntCove I had my battle last summer. I'm not sure where they came from but I suspect it might have been from my incomplete coop cleaning that spring. I did all the research here and other places, Sevin was why up there on the list including putting it directly on the birds. I got some from...

Meechhen I'm sorry for your loss I lost eight birds last year at different times and different locations If you could rig your setup where they can see each other for a coupe of weeks to the point they can peck at each other through the fence. The pecking order is and must be established for...

congratulations What color is it? Welcome to fresh eggs! I had seven out of eight girls laying today.

I'm sorry to here about your on going problems with the plucker! I can give you the email address to the kid I sold my mean bird to. He is starting a flock of birds on a farm out on the south west side of salt lake valley. He gave me 10 bucks for my one year old mean girl. I've checked up on...

Hoskins ElkMtn, I had a chicken like that and ended up selling her off to a farm out west, I’m the head plucker in my flock (more husband humor).
