    Deworming multi size chickens

    I have so many mixed breeds from Serama to Brahma and every size in-between all in 1 big coop. What can I put in their water to deworm them and how much do I put in it? They all drink from the same source. Fox and raccoon got into my other 2 structures and can't currently separate the chickens...

    Fox attack / Rooster hanging head

    I checked his neck again today and see it's all blue from bruising. Must be really really sore. I've been giving him half a baby aspirin morning and night but don't think it's making a difference. He's drinking a little bit but doesn't want his mushy food. Think it hurts to swallow. He's still...

    Fox attack / Rooster hanging head

    I believe he is in shock. He's not panting today but head still dropped to the floor. He's laying down a lot now. I make him get up and I dip his beak into watered down chicken feed and every so often he'll snap out of his daze and take a drink of the slop. It's like he's coming in and out of...

    Fox attack / Rooster hanging head

    My rooster fought off a fox. No visible injury but he can't lift his head and he's panting. Drooling cause he can't lift to swallow. He's a giant Brahma the size of a turkey I don't know how to help him. He won't lay down so his head is fully stretched hanging to the floor. I'm worried if I...

    (**UPDATE PHOTOS**) Dog chewed through chick leg what do I do?

    (**UPDATE**) It's been 10 days since the injury. She's still alive and "well". Drinking, eating and pooping. Unfortunately her leg isn't doing any better. It's hard to tell what's healing and whats getting worse. Her bone is still exposed and despite the splints I put on, her leg is starting to...

    (**UPDATE PHOTOS**) Dog chewed through chick leg what do I do?

    I have to thank you for the hammock idea. I had wrapped the leg up with a splint and the poor thing was freaking out trying to walk and keep it's balance. I didn't know how to keep her out of her own poop or how to feed her water safely. I came on here hoping for answers and your hammock idea...

    (**UPDATE PHOTOS**) Dog chewed through chick leg what do I do?

    My puppy got a hold of my 4 month old polish chick and chewed it's leg. The bone sticks out when the leg is bent. The bone also appears to be fractured. I soaked the leg in salt water and flushed the wound under the tap. I shaved the area clean and now the leg is air drying. What should I do? I...

    Is this White Silkie a Rooster or Hen?

    Okay so these 4 month old silkies are poor quality from tractor supply. I love them to death but this one is a mystery to me. The wattles are longer then the other silkie hens, yet shorter then the other silkie roosters. The hair on the top of its head is slicked back like a rooster would be...

    Swollen Vent but not Egg Bound?

    We have a small bantam hen who's a year old. She used to lay 1 egg every day until she became broody. I let her sit on eggs for 30 days and then had her free roam again. She's been fine for 2 weeks, still not laying eggs but not broody either. This morning I woke up to hear her squaking her head...

    What breed and sex?

    I own a bunch of chickens that free range my yard. I woke up this morning to find a new chicken in my yard with my chickens. I asked my neighbors if they knew who the chicken belonged to and they believe someone dropped it off at my place and left it. I'm not sure the breed or the sex so I was...

    Vent size??

    Okay so this isnt the sexiest coop in the world. I've never built anything in my life and I was using pallets I had to take apart. I'm working on the roof right now. I'd like the 2 triangles above the doors, the 1 in the front and the one in the back to be where I place the vents. The triangles...
