    Coryza or MG??? HELP

    I do not wear the same shoes. Each coop has their own designated shoes, I wash my hands and change clothes after each coop. I also have not used the same equipment since all of my birds got sick. You still think there is a strong chance that my new flock will get it?

    Coryza or MG??? HELP

    I plan to schedule an appointment for a necropsy today! Just worried about my current birds I just got and my chicks that are inside the brooder. Hope they don't catch anything.

    Coryza or MG??? HELP

    I culled my entire flock! I cannot risk disease in my flock. I sell birds and hatching eggs. I have many up and coming chicks about to move from the brooder, though.

    Coryza or MG??? HELP

    For my coop to be clear? I culled the birds. I read that coryza is mostly spread through bird-to-bird contact or through feeders/waterers. I culled, cleaned top to bottom, cleaned feeders and waterers, and waited a week before getting new birds. I am worried I did not wait long enough.

    Coryza or MG??? HELP

    Hello! I have two flocks that are in separate coops and runs, about 50-75 feet from each other. One is my 2.5 year old flock, and then I have another flock that is separated. I got them a month and a half ago; They were in quarantine for 30 days because I bought them as pullets from a lady...

    Can my chickens catch the flu from humans?

    But I tested positive for the flu yesterday at the clinic. My friends at work are sick too. But can my chickens catch the “human flu”? I have read mixed feedback on google & I am scared. Please relieve my stress :’)

    Back again. I have never had so many issues with incubation before. I think my husband accidentally unplugged the incubator last night when I asked him to check on temperature and humidity. I assume it was unplugged for about 10 hours. It got down to 67F. I candled a couple, still saw a bit of...

    Incubator temperature issues

    Day 10 of incubation: My incubator worked perfectly the last time I incubated. This time, I cannot keep the temperature at the correct spot. (Of course because last time I just had BYM eggs in there, and now I have an expensive fancy breed lol). Anyways, it fluctuates CONSTANTLY from 97.5F to...

    Are these fertilized?

    Cool! My cousin already put them in the incubator a couple days ago. I just decided to crack some open to see if any even had a chance of being fertile.

    Are these fertilized?

    That’s what I want to hear!! I told her I didn’t know if even one of the 12 would be fertile. It’ll be cool to hatch eggs from my own flock. I have always bought fertilized eggs rather than hatching from my flock.

    Are these fertilized?

    These are from two different eggs. I gave my cousin some free eggs & she wanted to throw them in the incubator because they were pretty greens lol. Anyways, I had a rooster up until about a week ago. He was young, but I couldn’t keep him because he started crowing (I live in town). I didn’t know...
