    Fleas!

    I am going to try DE today. I have been using Comfortis on my dogs and cats but I think they just pick up more fleas when they go outside. So today I am going to take up all the leaves and spread DE everywhere and maybe add a little Sevin! Ugh! I hate fleas!!

    Chickens have diarrhea ----- HELP

    Unfortunately I am not sure what else I can do. She is over 5 and has other things wrong. I cleaned her and put a DE & antibiotic ointment on her. I am taking her to the vet after this storm passes. I am pretty sure doc will want to put her down. Thank you.

    Separate the bully or the bullied?

    I have newer hens that aren't a year old yet. I introduced them to my flick of 4. Now the new Astrlop is bullying all the others. No blood but pecking and pulling feathers out. I know they have to find their "pecking order" but it has been a few months now and the bully is making it hard for...

    I have had my pullets in a tractor outside where th larger birds can see them. The Pullets are a leghorn and black astroulop and are 14 weeks. I hae RIR, Buff Orington, EE and a Plymouth rock. The RIR is broody so I am a little concerned about introducing them
