Thank you! This also seems like a good option. I have about 70 birds that I would need to treat, so this might be a better option for me. :)

That is what I'm hoping for! :)

She's not laying yet.. I'm excited to see if she will lay a blue egg or a green egg.. She is an EE. Her father was a bearded EE and her mother was a silver laced wyandotte. :)

Thank you! I have read that some people used Frontline. I didn't know it was safe for meat chickens though! :) Out of curiousity, how much did you dose each chicken?

I have a young chicken that looks just like the one you have standing on the cinder block! Except she has a different comb. :)

Oh! Thank you! You are sweet! I had forgotten I posted this question here. Thanks to everyone for the advice. Is DE safe for meat birds? I would like to be able to eat their eggs still.. Or maybe not, since I'm overrun with them.. But they are meat birds and I don't want to eat a bird with...

So I've discovered that my favorite hen has mites. It must not be bad yet because they were only found under her wattle, non under wings or vent area. How should I treat a large flock (60+ chickens)? Also, the majority of them are for meat and I would like to treat them with something safe.. Any...

I'm sorry to hear that she had to pass away, Mo. My condolences! I am happy that she went without you having to cull her though.

Princess No Legs started to move around on her own last night. She moved about 3 feet from where I sat her. Then, before I put her down for bed, we did some physical therapy and she was about to sit on one hock and one foot. Very wobbly, but she is improving every day! This morning, I noticed...

Oh, Maggie! He is gorgeous! Princess No Legs seems to be doing a little better today. She doesn't want to sit in her basin anymore and has been able to position herself comfortably the way she wants to lay. This morning, she is showing movement in her other leg. So now she can grasp with...

More than 24 hours after the dog attack, my chickens all seem to be back to normal! I'm very happy for them! The pullet that can't use her legs seems to be getting more strength back in her legs, more so in one than the other, but it's a big improvement after yesterday! I've dubbed her Princess...

Thanks you two for the advice! As the day goes on, they seem to look better. I will definitely give the pullet a few days to a week to recover, unless she shows signs that she is declining. Tomorrow is another day, and hopefully they will all be happier then! Latestarter, these neighbors are...

Today started out horribly for me and my chickens! The neighbor's dogs got in my back yard and killed 10 of my chickens and left the rest of them very traumatized and two that are more severely injured. One of my pullets has no puncture wounds, but she is unable to use her legs. She seems very...

I'm very sorry for your loss! I am praying for you and your family for peace and comfort.

Welcome, gretabee! :) How exciting for you and your husband! I love the planning stages of chicken anythings!

Good morning, Colorado! Today, I could hear one of my cockerels trying to crow. Maybe later on today, I can do some spying to see who is the culprit. It's always kind of funny when a cockerel is learning to crow. :)

Hey! We just reached 2001 page! Go us!

So many pretty birds! The little easter egger looks a little like mine. The duck looks absolutely adorable! I wish I lived closer!

Wow. Sounds kind of random!! Nothing but some wind and hot weather here..

I love moose! Hope everyone is having a fabulous day today!
