Yes. Always been together

Thank you! I think you’re right. I think the space is too small and they are bored. I’ve started adding more things to do in the pen.

Yes, Dot is shorter; but she weighs more than the other Dominique’s. My Orpington is massive … height and weight

Oh no 😳😳 i really pray that isn’t it. But she is eating, scratching and active… she’s no different than the other girls…the bullying always involves food…she roost with everyone, they scratch together. I’m definitely keeping my eyes on everyone though

They are laying. I do a layer feed (free feeding). And a grower feed once a day(mash)…Treats are cracked corn, sardines, bsf larvae; Once a day, Alternating the 3. The pen is 8x8. No clutter. The nestera coop is raised so it’s a little shelter under the coop. I can post pictures when I go out...

They snap at her body too. I see it when I give them treats and if Dot finds a great place to scratch in the ground for bugs… Mona comes over And snaps at her or pecks her to make her move…so Mona can takeover her area

Thank you! I’ll look for a water gun.

Thank you! I think you’re right about the free range then in the pen. And I’ll get the peepers

I have 4 girls all 9 months old. One buff Orpington and 3 Dominique’s …the buff Orpington (Mona ) just starting picking on one of the Dominique’s (Dot) now my second Dominique (the twin) is also picking on Dot. They are in a 8x8 pen. Have a nestera coop. One large hanging waterer an over easy...

Thank you so much everyone!!!! 😘😘😘

My girls just turned 20 weeks old and one started laying. So I switched them to layer feed. We have 3 week old chicks in the house on starter/grower feed. My son mixed oyster shell with the starter feed and now I can’t give it to my little girls. Can the 20 week old hens still use the...

Does anything I sent look like Mareks? She’s not getting any worse, but she’s not getting any better..

Thank you…I treated her with corrid for 4 days. It didn’t seem to help. The other 3 girls are doing well. They eat very well and I don’t have to alter their food. She has a bit of a snotty nose. When she sneezes snot flies. The sneeze has been going on for weeks. I just started grinding her food...

Feed us crumbles but she’ll only eat it if I grind it to dust. Poop has a slight green tinge. She’s in my tub. And see that leg that likes to be out in front of her.

Oh and like 2 days ago, she starred losing feather like crazy! I don’t see any bald spots but the tub has a lot of feathers in it. She almost reminds me of a broody hen. Oh and she’s a buff Orpington

First I noticed sneezing. She still had a good appetite and looked well. At 6.5 weeks I moved them outside. I’m in Georgia so it was about 65° in the day and 48° at night. I used a heat lamp and heat plate the first 3 weeks. Then I alternated weekly the heat plate and lamp. By week 5ish I only...

I moved them out of the brooder. But their brooder was in my jacuzzi tub.. now they are in a 8x8 covered run with a nestera coop. They are on organic feed specific for their age. I give them suet once in a while…and grit. She has been on the poly so vit for about 3 days.

Please help..I’m so devastated. Jan 16 I bought Marek VACCINATED baby chicks … fast forward 2 weeks ago, one started sneezing a lot. Then the next week she was very lethargic and had diarrhea. The 3 week, she can barely walk, is wobbly and the poops are looking normal. I think it’s Mareks. My 3...
