California - Northern

@mg15 -- I have seen other posts about scabbing on hens too. I will ad pictures.

mg, what CAUSED the scabbing? Something new I haven't heard of in chickens?
Well I don't really know. So the second vet said her skin could not grow follicles and s would not be able to grow skin. She is soaking daily and put on silver sulfadizine.

How's everyone doing? What's new? Do you all still have poultry? This year is my first year hatching turkey eggs and I am pretty excited.
Still here, and my 8 pullets from last spring have now all "graduated" to full hen-dom! I've had no time lately to hang out on BYC since our daughter and 2 very small kids moved in with us in March... The 3 year old loves the chickens and is learning how to gently pet them and give treats.

So, hi, everyone, from far northern Cal's redwood coast where spring has definitely sprung now. Love reading your chicken news!
 
@Nifty-Chicken -- very good to stagger hen additions -- when one age group slows down egg production the new hens pick up the slack -- plus the younger hens learn from the elders -- and all birds young or old are great for the garden, fertilizing it and foraging for insects. However, all OUR birds are for pure pet entertainment and therapy with eggs being a side bonus that you don't quite get from a dog or a cat:)
