    Could my hens have a disease ?

    Okay I suppose we could try. I called the feed store and said they have it for horses and cattle- do we use the same stuff just the dosage you say ?

    Could my hens have a disease ?

    It’s seems likely- I wasn’t able to see any lice though. My son checked the roost for red and nothing. We also sprayed with doktor doom (with .50 pyrethrums ) and “shake and baked” them a few weeks in a row , also just threw a bunch of diatomaceous earth on them and around the run and coup. I...

    Could my hens have a disease ?

    Not that we can see. We just took some more pics. So it looks like two Rhode Island reds have very red breastbones- possible hard lump. The one barred rock has possibly early signs of this

We recently started feeding them higher protein feed and they have oyster shells and grit but I’m not...

    Could my hens have a disease ?

    I thought they were moulting at first too, but they have been missing feathers for about a year and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better. We were feeding them normal hen feed but recently we tried higher protein food to maybe help them lay. Their coop is always clean with roosts three...

    Could my hens have a disease ?

    It is the end of June, and my son’s 5 hens haven’t laid any eggs for months. Very occasionally we get a single soft-shell egg, and once we got the most disgusting thing that didn’t even resemble an egg. My son read about Lash eggs, which sound right - however, our chickens are seemingly healthy...
