How are they now? I just had a hen die a few days ago and now another one is acting weird. No signs either except this one is acting slow, not wanting to eat or drink and just wants to lay down. Been dealing with mites too.
I just had one hen die the other day. Now I have my polish acting like this… she hasn’t laid eggs yet. Shes only 4 months old. Didn’t leave the coop this morning. Acting really slow and not moving around much. Doesn’t wanna eat or drink.
Also been dealing with mites. Still trying to get rid of...
My top hen has a red bottom... it's been red lately but now it's the worst. We have no roosters. I checked for lice/mites. Their is none. They did have mites but it's been over a month since they have been completely gone! She is molting so could this be the cause of it?? What can I do to help...
Now that I think about it, this soft shell egg was in my coop a week ago but it was under their roosting bar. I've been thinking it was from one of my new laying hens since they were above it but now I'm wondering if it was actually her....she has laid a normal egg since I found this one.
I don't have it anymore. 😕 I did open it and nothing was inside it. Just thin... she seems to be acting fine although she was back in the nesting box first thing this morning. She laid this last night. I'll have to check on her again. She has been losing some feathers. I don't know if she's...
Thank you so much! Elector psp is what i used. :) i tore apart my entire coop to kill them all and then I had to spray one more time on Thursday. I'm hoping they will officially be gone! It's been such a mess. I could tell the mites really bothered her compared to some of my hens. Hopefully she...
My Buff orphington is about 2 years. She laid this last night... the yolk was broken in the nesting box and this was barely hanging out of her. I've been dealing with mites and I've gotten almost all of them gone so would stress cause this? The mites definitely liked her more than some of the...
For weeks we have been hearing some type of animal inside the wall of our garage. At first we thought mice but it sounds a lot bigger. I couldn't find any opening where an animal could get in until the other day. i realized... our doggy door to the garage 🤦♀️ it's opening it and climbing behind...
Do these little bantams look fully feathered? 5 weeks old. They've been in the coop without heat. Temps have been 90-100.. except tonight it is 40ish degrees so I brought them inside. Also what breeds do they look like? I know their easter eggers but idk what they are mixed with.
This is mostly just for fun. 😉
They are only 5 1/2 weeks
and 3 1/2 weeks
The first two pics are of the 5 week olds. One is a crossbeak and is probly why she is smaller.
The 3rd pic is the 3 week old which I'm sure will be super hard to guess what it will be.
I'm gonna be doing gender testing so...
