    4 month old Pavlovskaya pullet.

    She is no better and maybe a little worse. I have been torpedo feeding her to make sure she eats something. Dribbling just water into her beak. I use the special feed with poultry cell and egg yolk. Not sure if I have any other options. I have contacted the breeder to see if there is any problem...

    4 month old Pavlovskaya pullet.

    Fecal float test said no worms or coccidia. I am going to torpedo feed her and see if that will induce her to drink water.

    4 month old Pavlovskaya pullet.

    No mites or lice-although I have a problem with about half of the chickens in my coop! Clean out time tomorrow. The have a couple of good dust baths but it has rained so much that can't go into their usual dusting holes...

    4 month old Pavlovskaya pullet.

    I have a 4 month old Pav who has been under the weather. Three days ago, I noticed her being kind of listless and hunched over. She has never been a ball of fire like the Swedish Flower hen and Hmong roo I got at the same time from Sugar Feather Farms. I have started her on poultry cell. She is...

    Wildfire Smoke?

    Lillian is alive and thriving. I thought she was near death so many times. All of the respiratory problems seem to be resolved also. 14 out of 26 had it (gasping and sneezing and breathing really hard).

    Wildfire Smoke?

    She is still alive. I gave her miconozole last night, let her stay on the perch with the rest, she is just no different, but this stool was from this morning and looks typical to what she has been doing.

    Wildfire Smoke?

    She certainly is having health issues, but it came on so suddenly. Two days ago she was wandering around and scolding me. Now she is so low. I started the miconozole. I am going to let her hang with her flock tomorrow. She is roosting with them tonight. Everyone has the air purifier. I have...

    What was the illness?

    Wildfire Smoke?

    I wonder if I should force feed her. I gave her poultry cell this morning and all her favorites. She is sneaky though and won't eat or drink when I am looking at her, so I have to go away. I hope she doesn't lay another egg today. That takes a lot out of them. She just falls asleep all the time...

    Wildfire Smoke?

    It was empty-a little spongy but not overly large. She is the same this morning. She is really not eating much.

    Wildfire Smoke?

    I live in North Dakota and we had a few days of critically dangerous air quality here. Keeping the chickens inside wouldn't have been helpful since they don't have a filtration system. The smoke has abated somewhat. Today, I noticed my Cuckoo Marans hen (4 years old but typically amazingly...
