    Blind in left eye and unstable.

    My young hen tilts her head to the right when she's looking around. She also seems dizzy and unstable. No signs of injury, swelling or infection. She eats and drinks fine.

    Two mother hens

    Yes they were. Everything went well over night! This morning I noticed the one hen picking on the other hens chicks. A couple had moved over to the nicer hen. Before long all 9 were under the nicer hen so I moved the more aggressive hen out. All is well!

    Two mother hens

    Cough but happy

    None of the above for symptoms. I stared her and the flock on Duramyacin a few days ago just as a percaustion. I have been feeding her probiotics for a few days and today she had scrambled eggs. I have seperated her from the flock. She's funny since she runs around the house like there is...

    I use this 3 watt light in my coop. Low wattage! I hooked it up to a timer with the transformer. http://store.aquascapeinc.com/products/productdetail/part_number=98927/1784.0.1.1.19455.1176.0.0.0

    My neighbor complained that the chickens are tearing up her landscaping so now I need to keep my free range birds cooped up. I'm planning on building a run for them. How long will it take for 13 chickens to kill the grass in an area 10 x 15? Will this confinment affect their egg laying? THey...

    Turkey ate posioned ants

    He ate the ants yesterday. My husband was spraying insect killer and the turkey was caught eating the dead ants. Today he is lethargic. It's been very hot here so I brought him in and tried to get him to drink some water. What else should I do?
