    Hi, my Chicken is 6 yrs old a Rodel island red. She was fine yesterday, today I see she is just laying in the coop outside and doesnt want to get up.

    Hi My other chicken is trying to peck her head. They are all healthy no problems until today. Its been really hot here and I don't know if its that. She won't drink either. Her feet are sort of curled up under her. Is she dying? What can I do to help her? HELP! Thank you, Jeanie

    Thank you! I will give her some electrolytes in her water, I have been giving her oregano water to help as antibacterials. The other chickens are ok. The fluid wasn't amber or dark green, just lime green. I wondered if it was bile. She is looking much better at this moment.

    Hi, My chickens love oatmeal! I cook it and put 2 eggs in it and they cant get enough! when its cold out I add peanut butter and make it like a thick mash...they really love that. They eat it so fast that they are trying to talk and eat at the same time..lol
