    Growth in nose

    So tried about 10 local vets but none of them will take a chicken. I’ll try rural towns tomorrow. Tonight it’s bloody and fleshy. It’s not a bot fly. I cleaned it up and put antibiotic cream. She’s still acting normal, just upset with me.

    Growth in nose

    Help! Chicks dying one by one

    When the other ones were dying both of these were looking a bit ill. My husband isolated them for a day but then they started eating and drinking and so he put them back with the other two. He said the one without the gunky eye had white poop. He’s guessing that maybe they were cooked enough...

    The hatchery isn’t certified and my husband (as these are his babies) described the sick ones as having a “rice krispes” sound in their throat. -snap, crackle, pop.

    Help! Chicks dying one by one

    the brooders inside our house with a heat lamp that’s raised above. Currently they are in a guinea pig cage bottom (no top). We are feeding them medicated chick starter crumbles.

    Help! Chicks dying one by one

    12 days ago we purchased 5 porcelain d’uccles from a local hatchery. They were two days old. Then three days later we went back and purchased 4 Millie D’uccles from the same hatchery, same age as the first five. When they were one week old, we found a porcelain had died. Then two days later we...
