    Pecking Heartache - Seeking Advice

    Also, I forgot to ask in my original post: If the injured one has a small open wound, would she still be okay to go in the coop with the rest of the flock during dark hours to sleep?

    Pecking Heartache - Seeking Advice

    Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction. I've posted there now. I didn't realize there are different forums. I've just created a BYC account in a worried haste.

    Help! Sick Hen!

    Hi everyone, I'm new to backyard chickens. I just got 4 Red Sexlinks a couple of months ago. They're now 7 months old. They've been giving me an egg a day each for the past month or so. Two days ago I noticed something that looks like small dark blood clots in some stool. In the past couple days...
