    Coccidiosis or something else? Hen is acting tired and hasn't eaten or drank since popping out of th

    Hi. Sadly, the only time I actually get on here is when there's an emergency. I'm not sure if this one is, so bare with me: This morning one of my hens -- she's a crossed-with-who-knows-what yearling -- came out of the house. But she walked slowly, almost tiredly, and when I scattered the...

    Hen standing in the dark; not drinking or eating much. Broody? Coccidiosis? Too hot?

    Hi. Today I recently noticed my hen, who's named Myna, acting strange. She is an 1 year old mille fleur d'uccle bantam. Normally, Myna never has problems. It's most often my other d'uccle hen, Fluffy Cheeks. But today, my sister and I noticed she was standing the shade of our garage, not doing...

    D'uccle Thread

    Hey, I need some help with something: when I first raised my d'uccle "baby nuggets," I was very bonded to a particular one named Hadassah. Although she wasn't exactly what I wanted in my standard breed (she barely has any white and doesn't have any fluffy cheeks) she has such an amazing...

    D'uccle Thread

    Hello. I am sort of a new member, but I saw this thread and just had to join. I own four mille fleur d'uccle hens and one mille fleur d'uccle rooster. I must say, they are the most calm, reliable little birds I have ever had. They are nine months old and have recently began laying; their eggs...

    sebright thread

    Hello. I am sort of new to BYC, but I have known about it for a long time. The only time I really get on is when my flock has a problem. Anyway, I own four little silver-laced sebright hens. They are nine months old, and I am thinking only two or three of them are laying. I was curious: I...

    My Hen Has Coccidiosis, Now What?

    Alright. Through careful reading on this site and other sites around the web, I have concluded that my hen (a bantam Mille Fleur D'uccle, eight months old) has contracted coccidiosis. She has all the symptoms (minus the bloody stool; hers is a green/yellow and bubbly). I do have 9.6% Corid on...

    Strange Hen Behaviors in the Beginning of Spring -- Broodies?

    I have recently joined BYC, and actually made a thread on the "Emergencies / Diseases / Injuries and Cures" section on the fourm-- and I hope it wasn't against the rules to post another thread and again speak of the same hen. I have 8-month old mille fleur d'uccle bantams who have started...

    8-month old D'uccle bantam lethargic, puffing her feathers, meandering and not eating.

    Thank you so much, Egg! The scrambled-egg trick worked, and she started eating a little bit. I can't say that she's eating entirely on her own; she is sleeping a lot and pretty much doesn't stay with the flock. Although my parents and I suspect she's broody, she's not even thinking about eggs. I...

    8-month old D'uccle bantam lethargic, puffing her feathers, meandering and not eating.

    Hi. I have recently joined this website to post this topic (although my sister is registered and I have visited the site many times). My little hen has a problem, and I can't tell if it is a disease or she'd going broody. Since yesterday, she has been walking around very slowly; she hasn't been...
