    Young Pullet Won't Stay Awake! HELP!

    I got a 10 week old black polish pullet last week from The Oregon Spring Poultry Swap. Today I went to let her outside to play in the sun and she just stood there with her wings drooped and her tail down. She kept her eyes closed and looked as if she kept falling asleep. She would drop her...

    One of my chicks got sick and had a cough and was sneezing and was shaking his head. I gave him duramycin and he got better. So I put him back in with his siblings. Now they are all shaking their heads, but no coughing or sneezing or acting lethargic. Should I be worried? Should I give them...

    How much duramycin should I put in a quart of water?

    It says 200-400 mg a gallon for infectious synovitus and 400-800 mg for crd air sac disease. How much for a quart for a chick that has a cough, sneeze, and runny nose. Also he is shaking his head.

    DIY dust bath?

    My chickens have been trying to dust bathe in their bedding that is in their coop. I want to make a place for them where they can dust bathe. Anyone tried this before? Maybe a kids sandbox? Would I use dirt from my yard or something else? Thanks!

    Is this poop normal?

    I've never seen my chickens have this kind of poop before. One of my chickens has been pooping this kind for the past day. I was just wondering if it was normal for it to look like sausages stringed together.
