    Very Red But and To Of Trail

    Hello, We have 19 hens the coop is 12x12 inside the barn and the height is 9 ft so they have high roosts as well for winter months. The run is 20 x15 . We do let them free range in an attached area that is 40x15 so I don’t think it’s crowding. I feed 16% crumbles but I give them sardines or...

    Very Red But and To Of Trail

    I am having the same issue. I have used no peck. I am going to try to use the blue kote. Has anyone gotten back to you I don’t see any replies? I have 19 and 6 of them look like yours. Not sure who is doing the feather eating so I need to look into peepers. Good luck.

    Girls were getting 16% layer pellets. Since last week we started on 18% crumblets. We only give veggies for treats never any bird treats. I occasionally give sunflower black oiled and chia or quinoa etc fruit I keep to a minimum but we do give it several times a week. And yes it is the latter. I...

    I have a second girl in 1 week with a prolapse vent. I found Mable late afternoon in the coop in our barn between the nesting box and the wall. Not sure if she crawled under or fell from the top. I just saw here flapping her wings struggling. When I moved the box and carefully picked her up I...

    Prolapse and egg binding ?

    Haven’t really been able to. I read we weren’t supposed to feed for 24 hrs. She would poop while she ate so because it was overnight I picked it up as usual( she ate up until about 4:30pm) today she has eaten very little. We have a large coop in the barn and a run. We have an area where they...

    Prolapse and egg binding ?

    I have a 25 week old Rhode Island Red that I noticed was prolapsed this afternoon. She definitely was not in this condition yesterday. So we brought her inside and realized she had an egg inside the prolapsed . Couldn’t find any information on a prolapsed egg bound chicken. We soaked her for 20...
