Hello! I had a hen die slowly for a 3 day period. She stopped eating and drink, and just laid around or was all hunched up. She was only 4 years old. Now another hen is sick and acting the same way. Also only 4 years old. PLEASE HELP ME SAFE MY FLOCK!
I have a Black astralap who is hatching her first clutch. So far one of the 5 eggs has hatched. She was off the nest to eat and it is trying to follow her and she was ignoring it. It's pretty weak. Once she got back on the nest, I put it back with her and she kept pecking it. So how do I help...
I have 17 week old pullets they are not roosting with my other hens. they just lay on the floor of the henhouse. how can i get them to get up with the other hens or should I just leave them alone?
I have 10 week old chicks and would like to move them in with my hens due to space issues. I know they're not supposed to have laying pellets but how big of a problem would it be with them at this age?
