    Pullet limping and constantly peeping after attack

    I feel just awful. Her and her siblings would huddle so close i couldnt tell where one ended and the other began. I really thought her sister would make it. I hope she can build this relationship with the other pullets her age. I was able to get her out and examine the leg. I felt no breaks and...

    Pullet limping and constantly peeping after attack

    I raised three pullets and unfortunately a hen became very aggressive and while I was away killed one on Tuesday. The other two survived the day. One had a bad head wound that I washed and applied triple antibiotic ointment too. The other had only wounds to her comb which I applied ointment too...

    Pasty butt help! 4 day old chick

    Almost 12 hours since I cleaned the initial blockage. I have cleaned her a few more times today and it still looks like she may have a little blockage. I went down for a final cleaning before bed and there was nothing to really clean off so I just added a little veggie oil. She was actually...

    Nutrena or Purina?

    I only buy Nutrena, I have bought other brands, but always go back to Nutrena. You can literally smell the freshness.

    Pasty butt help! 4 day old chick

    Rough day.... I've been keeping a close eye on her all day. I watched her poo, but she struggled to push it out. She isn't eating that I have seen and she is barely drinking. I gave her a little electrolyte water on the side of her beak and she did swallow a few drops. She has stopped peeping...

    Pasty butt help! 4 day old chick

    I have seen many people using apple cider vinegar to help prevent pasty butt, I have always used electrolytes in their water. What does everyone recommend, and why?

    Pasty butt help! 4 day old chick

    I have a four day old buff orpington. Day 1 and 2 she was active, drinking, and pooping, no signs of pasty butt. Day 3 she became very lethargic. She slept most of the day and barely got up when you would touch her. She would get up, but then go back to sleep a moment later. She was still moving...
