    Wormout gel?

    No, it shouldn’t be too hard, you’re right. But takes 2 of us snd there’s always one available. So, we’ll get it together and do your method- by color👍🏻

    New wormer

    Hello, Has anyone everbheard of “ wormout gel? It sounds as if it can go directly into the water of a flock of chickens instead of trying to administer panacur to each one individually?

    Deworming chickens

    Where do we get fennendazole? The vet recommended panacur! And a digestive aid along with doses. My son took the hen and his wife spoke to her regarding meds. What do you think? I also thought all chickens should get it. The vet wouldn’t commit because she didnt examine the flock?!

    mixing "show" birds and laying hens

    Is it ok to house fancy chickens and regular layers together? Do fancy birds need anything special? I don't know which kinds I want but looking at pictures there are some very nice looking birds out there. Would I want my rooster to be able to mate with her? Sometimes the run gets muddy and...

    2 yr old hen suddenly stopped laying, isn't broody

    I am having the same situation. The only exception is that I introduced 2 hens to 2 hens and a rooster. The former hens lived in a pen within the others pen so they saw each other daily. All the hens stopped laying. Is it the stress of new Ladies in the area?? The rooster doesn't play...
