    I Gave Raw Peanuts to My Flock--Help!

    I feel awful. I thought I was giving them something great--I didn't think anything of raw peanuts, since roasted peanuts have been a treat for a long while. Now a chicken is dead. I didn't think to consider it was the feed until my mom thought the fact they were gaining weight was unusual. When...

    I hope these pictures help a bit. It took me a while to get them posted and some didn't upload, if these aren't helpful, I will try to post more that didn't load this time.

    Sick Chicken--What do I do?

    This is very helpful, hopefully, he may jump in here as well. I have not had a problem for the 1. 5 years on this diet for her, but with a hard molt, if that is happening, then it could be something different. Thank you.

    Sick Chicken--What do I do?

    I hope you are not emotionally upset. I'm not sure what you are responding to about what I feed them, but if you want me to list all the things in hopes that it helps, I could. If you read above you will see the other foods, it is so hard to list everything, so I just listed the first three that...

    Sick Chicken--What do I do?

    Thank you for your welcome. She even picks at the poultry feed--the kind that has the 5 gran scratch. I created my own, using millet, black oil sunflower seeds, sunflower hearts, oats, split peas, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, flaxseeds, canary grass seeds, and so many other things, as well as free...

    Sick Chicken--What do I do?

    I usually just feed them sunflower seeds, peas, watermelon, --i stay away from commercial feed. However, my neighbor bought the 5 grain chicken scratch, that I described above, and she used to just pick out the meal worms, but now, nothing of that interests her. she is not even eating the...

    Sick Chicken--What do I do?

    Hi All, I am attaching some pictures of the poop. The hen is about 1.5 years old, and while it is winter, she has continued to lay eggs up until about a week ago. Slowly I saw her decline and didn't think much of it until she started eating very little and stopped being energetic. Now she is...

    Help to re-home AZ Hen

    Hello, I saw your post about what happened to Martha's family. I am truly saddened by that, as that has happened to me. Martha looks like my barred Rock hen, and I have been looking for another breed like hers. I am in NC. I don't think that I am near you. I will be praying for success.
