    My chicken died today

    Rhoda had vent gleet. I have been cleaning her butt feathers the same way for the last few weeks. Holding her backwards to clean her up and treat with medicine. Today I guess some fluid from the crop came up and must have went into her lungs. She could not clear it. She died a few minutes...

    Feathers lost on backside of chicken

    Protein level is 16% Dumor organic layer crumbles. I give them mealworms and sunflower seeds for treats. I have 12 chickens in decent sized run. The run has some access to some plants on the outside of the fence. Wouldn't the problem be in more than one chicken if there was an issue with food.

    Feathers lost on backside of chicken

    I do have a small coop that I could put her in to isolate her, but still be seen by the others and see if that works. How would I know if it was mites?

    I have a speckled sussex 11 months old that has lost all her butt feathers. How can I get them to grow back? I think others are pecking on her.

    Limping chicken

    My 2 yr old Rhode island red is limping and favoring her tonight foot. Still eating and laying. The bottom of her foot seems a bit swollen, but no scab or black spot. Is it bumblefoot?
