    Chicks dropping like flies

    Chicks dropping like flies

    Chicks dropping like flies

    I don’t see any blood. I treated for cocci & still had them dropping. They’re literally golden & then I check on them & one is passing randomly.

    Chicks dropping like flies

    Ear Infection? Canker?? HELP!

    Bump! I’m currently dealing with the same issue but my chicken eye was closed shut with gunk. I put Terramycin in her eye and am planning to now give her Tylan tomorrow as soon as I wake up! I am worried it is somehow a canker that spread to her ear so I’ll be double checking for that too!

    2 chicks hatched both with slipped tendon

    I’ve easily hatched 30 chicks. The last batch I hatched one was born with a slipped tendon. Just had 4 more hatch & 2 of the 4 have a slipped tendon. Is this something to do with their parents, incubator, or just random? Idk what to do. I’ve tried splinting them. Ones leg is bleeding & I feel...
