    Sick chick

    I have a silkie who's about 6-8 wks old who's not eating and not acting right. I separated the chick & have it in my garage. I did hear it sneeze last night. What should I do?

    Invasion of flies......HELP

    Are you guys having problems with the green flies or just plain old flies? I'm having the problem with the green ones here in NC.

    Invasion of flies......HELP

    It's an open run about 30x40 with 10 chickens. No bedding, just dirt & grass. We haven't had any rain in a while, so it's very dry.

    Invasion of flies......HELP

    All of a sudden we have flies galore in the chicken run. We're not having a problem in the coop, just the run. Any suggestions on how to control the flies?

    Silkie thread!

    I ordered 7 white silkies, straight run, mix of bearded & non bearded from a hatchery. This morning someone had said that usually the hatcheries only give you non bearded. Is that true? How can I tell if these babies are bearded or not. They're only 5 days old. Can you tell this early?

    Introducing new or just doing away with the old

    We plan on breeding them eventually. That's why we wanted pure breeds, not just for the eggs.

    Introducing new or just doing away with the old

    Right now we have 9 hens & 1 roo that are 7 months old. We bought them from a backyard breeder who said they were australorps. Well.. they're mixed, & we really wanted full breeds. So, we ordered some full breeds, 17 pullets & 2 roos that are currently in the brooder and are about 4 weeks now...

    So, how do you keep them from getting to the point of being mean?

    tetracycline

    They have not been wormed yet. That was going to be my next step after getting her feeling better.
