Hello I’m new to hatching chicks (my 1st time ever) I received 3 Easter egger eggs from someone , 3 barred rock, 3 australorp eggs from another person. The 3 barred rock & 3 australorp all hatched day 20-21. Of the 3 EE, 2 failed to develop early (day 7-14) the last one looked promising, but...

@azygous After keeping her in for 3 days and she seems to be acting normal (she finally laid an egg) I’m going to put her back out in the coop and just watch her.

@Eggcessive This morning her crop was flat, she is eating and drinking. She is inside, she seems to be acting pretty normal now. This morning she was quiet and acting like she was going to lay an egg, but nothing. Her vent is clean and is pulsating from time to time. I did not feel an egg...

Question I gave her a Epsom bath and noticed these spots, do you think she has fowl pox?

I don’t know if anyone is reading this thread but I have a 2 yr old hen that was lethargic about 2 weeks ago I gave my girls (4 hens) some electrolyte water and she seemed fine like and hour later, yesterday evening she was lethargic again so I brought her in for the night. No real signs other...

She is sitting quietly and I think trying to lay, I just heard a splash sound and she pooped clear liquids with some dark material.

Also how long should she take to lay the egg? She’s quiet and just laying and standing and picking around in her bedding.

How much calcium would I give her? She’s @5 lbs. I have read somewhere about giving tums.

Thank you for your reply. I kept her in a Tupperware container in my house last night. To answer your questions the other day with the egg I did not notice her back end because I just assumed an egg got broken and cleaned it up real quick before anyone else noticed and tried to eat it. The egg...

I have 2 yr old RIR hen, about 2 weeks ago I noticed her out just standing in the corner of her run. I checked her over and couldn’t find anything off I gave her some electrolytes and she was back to normal. The other day I noticed she was standing in the nesting box when I was collecting eggs...

I have a hen (@2yrs old) she was standing alone and looks lethargic. She ate some oatmeal I offered her this morning, her butt looks clean, abdomen is soft. She is in with 3 other hens so not sure if she has been laying, I haven’t seen any diarrhea from anyone. Looking for suggestions of what...

Hello I’m asking the same kind of question. My girls are @6-7wks and over the past week we have been putting them out for the day and bringing them in at night. I live in southern Pennsylvania, it has been 30-40 night and 30-60 day depending on the day (it’s so up and down this year!) they are...

They have only been in a brooder, no outside still too cold here in southern Pennsylvania. I have given them a little tomato last week. Which I figured was possible cause of diarrhea but wasn’t sure about the ruffled feathers occasionally and if Apple cider vinegar and yogurt were ok to give. I...

New to the chick world. I have 4 pullets. They are about 3-4 weeks old. They are active but I have been noticing diarrhea in the pen (dark brown color) I am feeding medicated starter feed, I notice from time to time to of them looked kinda ruffled feathers and off to themselves. I was reading on...

I’m looking to start fresh this spring with chicks. We had 3 hens (2 sexlinks) 2 from tractor supply and one from a friend who purchased from a auction. All three of my hens (2 were 2yrs old and 1 was 3yrs old) had a bout of EYP. The 1st I took to a vet who said spay her or euthanize her. After...

Question...I just have a drop light with a 100w bulb for heat. I was thinking this morning that maybe having light on her 24/7 isn’t good for helping her with the laying issues, anyone have any suggestions for heat with the light without having to go buy a heat bulb?

Eggsighted4life thank you for the oatmeal tip. My other hen the Vet said spay her or give her these shots to keep her from laying. The shots were $500 and spaying was silly since I have my girls for eggs. I had reached out on here and someone told me to try tetracycline for fish and I did it and...

This is what her poop looks like.
