    Is pet rat poop okay for the chicken run?

    Would you put soiled sheets on your bed? I admire your efforts in attempting to save the environment or what have you. Instead of putting it in a plastic bag you could always bury it or invest in paper bags to place it in. Cardboard box would work as well.

    Raccoon attack

    Deworming.

    I found this company the other day and thought I would share the information for those that are unable afford an expensive vet visit. They do fecal floats and have lab services for parasite diagnosis. http://midamericaagresearch.net/instructions.php

    Over copulation .

    Unfortunately no vet here has open availability due to hour and staff reduction ....COVID -19. I also now think there is an egg she is attempting to lay. Kind of at a loss on what I should do here.

    Over copulation .

    I have a male and female and the male has gotten overly aggressive with the female so much so that he broke her leg do to over copulating. I have separated them and am now attempting to heal her. Do I cull the male? How do I treat a broken leg?

    Neighbor Took My Chickens

    My neighbor actually went through the same thing. Call animal control and have them come get your birds with a police escort. You are going to have to slap the person who took them with a restraining order or no contact to prevent this from occurring again.
