    worming Hens using eggs?

    If they will eat the egg willingly then by all means give it a try. I have personally found with my wifes girl that cheese works for her

    First the Egg (problem), then the Chicken (is sick)

    The thin shells sounds like a lack of calcium. If needed add more oyster shell to their feed. You might also want to check for worms

    Puzzling Pullet Problems

    If the droppings are coming out as you say it sounds like a gut problem. You need to take her to a vet and get her checked out. The sooner that is done the better her chance for recovery. Good luck

    How many treatments for leg mites?

    Vaseline is in my exp. one of the best things to use it will take a while to git rid of the mites. Keep putting the vaseline on their legs till the scales recover as for dish soap you can use a soapy water solution to clean the coop and remember the roost

    broken foot?

    The best I can tell from the photo is that it does appear to broken. If it is all you can do is tape the toe straight if she will let you. Be gentle doing so as not to hurt the little girl. Outside of that keep an eye on her and a lot of TLC never hurts

    chick can't walk

    Goldie had the same problem. with alot of care and about 6 weeks of working with her she was walking on her own with a limp. Her leg never fully recovered but she was not in pain and lived a good and very loved life to the end. So stay positive and please keep me informed.
