    Chicks Dying

    Sounds like it could be the ramp it is pretty steep. They are all fully feathered and have been for some time. I know the coop is not too small, and they have all died outside in the run. I think I will just keep them in the coop for awhile till they understand that is where they need to be...

    Chicks Dying

    I have lost 6, six or seven week old chicks this week. They are outside in a large coop and good sized run. The first three that died seemed to have been squished by the other chicks in the night, because they were outside in the run instead of in the coop under the heat lamp. So I started...

    Food Grade DE???

    Thank you everyone for your help. If you google Food Grade DE you should be able to find many companies that sell it and will ship it but shipping is 25 to 35 dollars depending on where you live. Thats on top of the $30 per 50 lb bag.

    Food Grade DE???

    I just bought this bag of DE at my local feed store. The clerk said it is food grade and that he knows people that feed it to their animals, but it looks different from other stuff i have seen on the internet. Is this food grade?? [

    UPDATE: Chickens can't walk and now four have died.

    Should I cull anybirds that have been exposed to it?

    UPDATE: Chickens can't walk and now four have died.

    Ok so everything that I have read about Mareks disease so far says "Paralysis" of the legs or wings. My two hens that are still alive can move their wings and legs but just seem too weak and off balance to stand up fully. So does that qualify as paralysis with this disease?
