    Sick hen—can’t walk. Ideas?

    Her walk is sort of a right, left left, right, left left. Sit. Not really using her wings. She is dropping feathers like crazy. I don’t feel any enlargement. Near her lower abdomen.

    Sick hen—can’t walk. Ideas?

    I have an 18 month old RIR hen that can can’t walk. She can shuffle around the coop floor, but can’t stand up fully. I don’t see any injury, but there could be something that I just can’t see. Her comb is a good red, but she looks like she is hitting a hard molt. She last laid an egg...

    What to do with a mean girl?

    I have added a couple of places to hide but I worry about her getting cornered. She tends to want to go up to get away, so i have several options for her to do that, too.

    What to do with a mean girl?

    I’m looking for some suggestions! I have 5 hens, just over 1 year old. They have been together since they were chicks. Within the past couple of weeks my black maran has turned on my barred rock. She gets after her to pin her down and peck at her head. I separated the injured one out to...

    Will pullets start laying or is it late in the season

    I’m in northwest Iowa and my RIR and Barred Rock are just getting started now, at 20-22 weeks. It’s my first group of chickens and it’s so fun to find eggs!

    Coccicidiosis, maybe??

    Ok. That makes sense to me. Thanks!

    Coccicidiosis, maybe??

    Hello! I need to continue this conversation because we are beginning the 5th day on Corid and I still see bloody, runny dropping in the morning. It was only in one spot under the roost. All 6 pullets are active, eating and drinking, and seem to feel fine. I do think it might be from a different...

    Coccicidiosis, maybe??

    I got it figured out and it went well. She looks like she feels a little better today. Thanks for the video link!

    Coccicidiosis, maybe??

    I am pretty sure it is only one at this point. I have seen her drinking the water, so that’s a start. If i mix the corid with rice and buttermilk, will she eat it? I also don’t know how much she weighs? She is 15-16 weeks old, a Maran (seen in my profile pic) This is all new to me, so thanks...

    Shavings. It is a new coop, built this summer. Vinyl flooring, so it is easy to clean out.
