    Large bloody mass on my hens butt! What is this?

    Thank you. No I haven't tried to push it back in, it's so big, I didn't think it would be a good idea. I was hoping it would shrink a little bit, but it doesn't seem to be going down any. Will it hurt her if I try to push it that big into her?

    Large bloody mass on my hens butt! What is this?

    She is separated from the flock due to the rooster started to attack her a few months ago. She seemed to blossom not having to deal with him, however it's been since November that she has laid an egg.

    Large bloody mass on my hens butt! What is this?

    Thank you so much. I can't see if there is an egg inside it, it's very bloody and dripping. I did manage to get her into a warm bath, but couldn't hold her in there for very long. I wiped as much stuff off as I could. I have poultry+aid and sprayed that around it as much as I could. Really can't...

    Sick with worry! HELP!

    I had this issue when I had one hen and one rooster left from my flock. I thought it would be a good idea to get three pullets to give the older hen a break from the rooster. After I introduced the new hens, everything was fine for a couple of weeks, but then all the sudden the rooster started...

    So I know this is going to annoy everyone, but I live in MD. and they don't sell anything for deworming chickens. The only Fenbendazole I have been able to find is for either goats or horses. Is this what your suggesting I use, I bought the ivermectin because it was suggested by an employee...

    Help! Wormy poop

    Thank you, I found ivermectin paste 1.87% is that the correct strength? Also, is it safe to eat their eggs that have been laid before I knew they had worms? I know not to eat them after we administer the ivermectin.

    Rooster attacking older hen

    I'm having an issue with my Rooster about 3 years old. He has always been a very calm good natured rooster, doesn't attach or chase. Due to natural occurrences, since the winter there was just him and his hen and she was stated to look rough due to all his attention. So I order three pullets...

    Rooster of the week!

    This is such a great idea! I always have questions about my rooster and can never find anything! This is Mister Lee, I was told he is an Americana, he is a very nice Roo, about 2 years olds, protective of the girls, but a little rough on them (I only have 2 hens). Thankfully he is not aggressive...

    None of the others are showing any signs. It happened so quick, one day he was fine, the next not. I've never heard of permethrin, I will get some. Thanks!
