HI AGAIN,
I have been seeing over the past couple of days that my birds, are opening their mouths and going up and down, all day long ? could it be because they are thristy, they have lots of water. ???
My hens started to lay eggs on August the 14th and now its the 27 and still only getting 7-10 eggs a day, I have different kinds of chickens, they were all born on the same day, and all the combs and wattles are red. and all of them are squatting ? maybe couple more weeks before they all start...
ashytle: when I had a very sick baby chick, I mixed medicated chick starter and mixed it in a small bowl, and made it into oalmeal, (more water) just very runny. hope it feels better.
here is what I use I made it the last couple of days. I put a clip on lock so no coons or any animals get in, I put a tarp over top so no rain get in and it is on a slight slope so that the grain can slide down to the bottom.
Hi again,
for next year I want to get a blue egg layer chicken is there just one kind of layer or is there different kinds, any help would be appreciated.
it happened to me a couple of years ago, I had 8 hens, I went out on a winter cold day, and from the day before I got 8 eggs then the next morning there was 11 eggs and could not believe my eyes.
I have I think 6 different kinds of brown egg laying birds, but yesterday I got a white egg, from one of the birds, I do have white birds, but they have red earlobes and should be laying brown eggs, but maybe just a fluke or not?
