    Runny Eyes & Disintegrating Feathers

    Several of our chickens have had problems with runny eyes and with their feathers around their necks disintegrating (see pics). We have tried both tetracycline & sulmet and it seems to clear up a little for a while but comes back. It has been going on for several weeks. Does anyone have any...

    Susquehanna Poultry Club Show

    We too had a wonderful time. It was our first show and we really enjoyed it. We met a couple of you and would have loved to be in the picture. Congrats to all the winners.

    Mixing Roosters

    Can roosters be caged together w/out hens? We have several roos and would like to seperate them especially to give the hens a break but don't have a lot of room to put them in individual cages. Thanks

    Chickens Outside in the Chill & Snow

    We have silkie roos and hens who were inside for about a month until the other day. Now they are outside in a pen w/ a rabbit hutch w/ insulated panels covering the screen parts and a heat lamp.

    chickens in the rain?

    Help Sick Chicken - Listless w/ Diarreah.

    We tried to get Ampro yesterday but the feed store doesn't carry it so we got Sulmet and added that to the water. What should we use for a low protein diet? Thanks

    Help Sick Chicken - Listless w/ Diarreah.

    She is better today. We made sure she drank water w/ antibiotics in it all day yesterday and fed her oatmeal. Last night she was eating regular chicken food from my hand and today she is eating from the feeder and drinking normally. All 3 are on the antibiotic for now. The silkies exhibited...

    Dog Kennel Coops

    We are looking at ideas for coops and pens. We have at least one rat around that has gotten one of our hens. Does a dog box such as the one shown raised on cinder blocks work for this? We are looking for ideas for easy chicken coops. We have 2 dogaloo dog houses we'd like to use but are afraid...
