    Lash egg? How to help?

    Great news! Missee has basically made a full recovery - with the exception of her refusing her layer feed!! Long story short, my dad and I have her injections of .5 ml of tetracycline twice a day from Saturday through Wednesday. Saturday’s dose was just once. On Tuesday, my vet and I decided...

    Lash egg? How to help?

    Thank you for your replies! We were in the middle of a blizzard so my vet was snowed in yesterday. I went to the feed store per my vet to get medicated feed and oxytetracycline. Missee has had two injections of it, on top of some electrolyte water. Missee ate a spoonful of oatmeal this morning...

    Lash egg? How to help?

    Hello, My hen, Missee, has had quite the couple weeks. She is going through a moly and has lots of pin feathers on her underside. About three weeks ago, Missee laid a rubber egg and the next day laid a thin-shelled egg. I’ve been giving her aspirin as instructed by my vet and then gave her...

    Not sure what is going on?

    Oh! I hadn't thought of that! I bet they'll love that. Do I need to be careful of what kinds of wet cat food or tuna to feed them? Missee ate the best yesterday than she has all week, but today - Saturday - she took a step back or two and didn't eat much. She is still acting pretty normal, though.

    You aren't kidding about how they can keep a person on their toes!!! I've been trying to feed her whatever she will eat. I was at Walmart last night and read that you can feed chickens parakeet food as a treat. My dad separated them into to side-by-side dog crates. She's eaten more at this point...

    Not sure what is going on?

    I have two young hens, Millee and Missee. Millee is very dominant, and Missee is rather meek and quiet. A few weeks ago - maybe 3? - they both had some frostbite on the tops of their combs. They seemed to have been doing fine. Then, earlier this week, I fed them and noticed that Millee was...

    Beak Repair

    Thanks! It was definitely worse than my other one's broken beak. She's eating fine and it's cleaned up a lot.

    Broken beak? Is it severe?

    Thanks. It's bled some. In fact, I've put flour on it twice tonight to stop it. She seems to be eating hard boiled eggs tonight.

    Broken beak? Is it severe?

    I posted a month or two ago about one of my pullets having a broken beak. That one was pretty minor and grew back just fine. Now, my other one broke her beak. I think it got stuck on the cage that I had stuck some treats into. It's bled some, but it's pretty much stopped. I have used the...
