    Texas

    NE Texas here - Commercial Chicken Farms are plentiful in our area. But not many that know about general chicken well being. I have learned soo much on this site and owe my favorite chick's life to a few that helped me in a crisis!

    Baby Chick pulling feathers,not growing and now acts sick! What to do with Agnes....;(

    Tonight I just cried - Agnes was following me around and acting as close to normal as I have seen in a week!! She still looks rough with her feathers pulled out but I am thinking we are on our way to recovery. We did find another with a swollen eye so we treated her with a quickness!

Keeps me busy as I am having to change the water out daily - I am also adding ice on those killer days of 100 degrees!

The Tylan 50 - we were a little taken back that all we found was in a inject-able form. But we extracted .05 mil...

    My 4 month old Agnes has not been growing as her other companions her age. She has no neck feathers or tail feathers. Over the course of the past week she just hasn't been her perky self, getting worse by the day. She hasn't been sneezing or coughing - just acts exhausted. But it has been...

    Hello from North East Texas !

    Grew up on a farm in Minnesota some 30 years ago. Swore off any farm animal for most of my adult life....but now as I am growing wiser and much more relaxed and comfortable with my Nonna status. Those chickens keep calling me! So after some gentle persuading from my husband I agreed to have a...
