    Respiratory issue?

I gave her doxycycline that was left over from a previous chicken. Also gave her some water by syringe, and nutri drench...

    Letting new pullets out

    Thank you.Maybe I will give them a couple more days.The run is under the coop, so I don't wanna have to crawl around under there to get them back inside at night... Once I get them adapted to the small area, I have another big run attached to it.But probably shouldn't give them too much...

    Letting new pullets out

    So they are in a coop with an attached protected run. I open the door to the ramp every morning but none of them will come down the ramp to the run. I'm wondering if I should force them down the ramp into the run or just be patient and let them do it on their own? It's been 3 days now and they...

    Letting new pullets out

    I just purchased five pullets, and I have them inside the coop for 3 days now. I haven't attached small run.Would it be okay to let them in there and out of the enclosed coop. Will they know to go up the ramp back inside at night after these three days?

    Any thoughts on bizarre Hen behavior

    I have a one year old buff orpington. Two weeks ago I found her on her side in the coop. I thought she was dead as she was barely moving. I brought her into the garage. She would not stand or move anything but her head. Her movements looked like something neurological. Couldn't stand, head...

    1 yr old Hen not behaving normally without any other obvious symptoms of illness

    I guess it could be possible....they free range during the day with sheep and goats. Not sure what but perhaps. Any thoughts on what the vet said about her feet curling when I put her down? Once she's down she has no trouble walking?
