    Chicken De-worming

    Thanks so much, I might get the Safeguard for goats as the review on it seem pretty good. Everywhere I've read it says to put it in the water, but would it be better for me to put it into a syringe and put it into their mouths directly?

    Chicken De-worming

    We’re in Massachusetts, the weather is definitely warming up which is why I don’t think her fluffing up is cause the cold. I don’t feel her lower belly but she is incredibly skinny. I haven’t seen any lice or mites. I don’t think she has been eating too much to begin with as her crop wasn’t full...

    Chicken De-worming

    My black langshang pullet (first started laying this past December) stopped laying eggs a few months ago, I didn't think much of it cause I've read that they can stop however I think she may have worms. She is really skinny and isn't as active as she used to be, her comb is dry and is a pale...

    What breeds are they?

    I adopted these three female ducks, the owner was unsure of the breed but said they possibly could be blue Swedish. They do have the white feathers at the tips of their wings but there’s more than 3 that’s typical of blue Swedish (that I have read)

    Should I bring molting chicken indoors

    I was planning on getting some chick starter but I think the turkey feed might be better. One of my leghorns just started showing signs of molting yesterday, I hope she doesn’t go through as heavy of a molt haha

    Should I bring molting chicken indoors

    I didn’t give her a heat lamp, our garage stays warmer than outdoors but I would certainly not call it warm ( a rough estimate would be 20-30 f) my birds are typically pretty friendly, but she is one of the wilder ones, I had her perch on my hand as I moved her, I didn’t even brush her underside...

    Should I bring molting chicken indoors

    I’m outside right now, she’s the only one who’s staying in the coop and her comb is turning white and black. I’m bringing her in. Thanks for the reply!

    Should I bring molting chicken indoors

    I think this is my black sex link girl, she’s having a really heavy bolt whereas my those island reds are going through it much slower and don’t exactly have baked spots. It is 15 degrees f (-9 C) outside right now and we’re supposed to get snowed in on Thursday (12 inches) with temperatures at...

    Hen pelvic bones

    Hi all, I just got a couple of 1-2 year old hens from a friend. When I ‘privacy tested’ then I found that I couldn’t only fit 2-2.5 fingers in between their bones whereas a laying hen should be able to fit 3-4. Do these bones move back into place when they get more sunlight in the spring or are...

    Silkie Chick In Fall/Winter Weather

    Thanks for the reply, I live in New England so it does get pretty cool in the winters, this week it was pretty mild staying at around 50 and high 30s at night. My house stays around 65-70 in the winter. I currently have four chickens with my ducks now (1 isa, 1 Aussie, 1 leghorn, and 1 Easter...

    Silkie Chick In Fall/Winter Weather

    I'm getting two leghorns and an australorp from a friend this coming week to add on to my flock of 4 pullets and 3 ducks (so they can stay warm in their new coop) he is also selling a silkie chick which is 3 going on 4 weeks old. He had said that it was fully feathered so I'm thinking it should...

    Hello from New England!

    I have three babies (blue swedes, they act like toddlers sometimes xD) and four chickens (one sex link, one australorp, one leghorn, and one easter egger.) They are absolute darlings <3
