He prescribed Ivermectin pour on 2-3 drops at base of neck, then again in 1 week. If no success, 0.02-0.03 ml injectable ivermectin given SQ. It has been 5 days since the first...

    Rooster feather loss and red skin

    Unfortunately I got a stomach bug overnight & barely got out to open the chicken pens this morning. I have an automatic coop door that lets them into a small pen but then I have to open a door to a larger pen for them. I’m glad I got everyone treated yesterday. I have a mixed flock, 30 Hens & 1...

    Can you help me identify these chicks from Greenfire stock?

    Unfortunately, we had to train her with a shock collar. It only took 2 shocks & a couple of vibrate warnings. However, this was only after weeks of attempting to train on a leash. I’m kind of embarrassed about it. Over 20 years ago, I trained a Golden Retriever to be safe around chickens in a...

    Yes, I just noticed the feathers on their legs. I thought the Isbar looked like a light blue. Didn't realize it was a splash. Here's a pic of my Isbar chicks. My splash chicks were yellow or yellow & black

    4th pic down will be a Splash Isbar. Attached is a pic of mine from GGF. I'm not sure on the others. Maybe going to their website & looking at pics will help ID the others. Good luck. They are very cute. I love babies!
