Thank you so much for the help!

She seemed a little better this morning and actually ate some feed. I attached a picture of her poop from yesterday as well as a picture of her. She is a bantam cochin (the white stuff on her comb is just yogurt). Still waiting on the corid.

Yes, all hens were brought in and raised together.

I can get a picture tomorrow. I don't have a feed store near me but it should arrive either tomorrow or the day after, is there anything I should do in the meantime?

I noticed one of my hens not eating anything this morning and also see some bloody poops so I just ordered some corid for coccidiosis. This is my first time dealing with this, and my hens are three years old. So far I have just noticed one acting this way, but is it safe to give all of my...

The bugs were no bigger than a speck of dirt and were brown/grayish in color

Got it, the permethrin I ordered is from a brand called martins however it says ready to use on poultry on the bottle so I’m not sure I need to dilute it https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01LVWREWJ/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

thanks for the reply. Do you know if this works for lice as well?

This morning i was holding my chicken and after I put him down I noticed small brown insects on my jacket and naturally am very freaked out right now. I've read that permethrin spray is effective for such infestation but am unsure of how to use it. Can I spray permethrin 10 directly on the...

Thanks for the reply. Will get a picture first thing tomorrow morning

I’ve noticed in the past few weeks that my rooster has been avoiding running and jumping. Lately it’s gotten worse and he has trouble keeping his balance when I put him on the ground and has to use his wings to regain his balance. The temperatures where we are have gone up and down like crazy...

I believe my bantam rooster may have had an encounter with a predator about two weeks ago as we found him with a bloody comb inside the coop. We cleaned up the comb but I think his leg may have also been injured because I’ve noticed that he’s been avoiding running and jumping lately. He’s also...

yes, we did! we had two more chicks hatch and everything has been great so far, thank you!

thank you! i wouldn't say she was poking it aggressively, I think I just panicked. We put her back in everything seems to be fine so far.

We had all three of our hens go broody at the same time on 3 eggs, and just a few hours ago one started hatching... the hen that was sitting on the egg started poking the chick so we took the hen out and let another hen sit on this chick (which is now doing well) but why was the other hen poking...

will do!! Thank you so much!

Thank you!

One of our bantam golden laced cochins had started laying eggs in late December when she was 6 months old, and we have a rooster so she may have laid some fertile eggs. She’s been sitting on them and is all fluffed up, so she has probably gone broody. I've heard it is dangerous for a hen to go...

not sure, was she always like this, or has this behavior just begun?
