    Dead Barred Rock

    Good morning all! I had a barred rock hen (just over a year old) that recently passed away and her sister is starting to slow down so I want to help her before she croaks too *sigh*😮‍💨. Maria (the deceased) was open mouth breathing, had stopped laying for about a week and a half to two weeks...

    911 IS THIS MAREKS?

    Well, a sad day has come. My husband put down Maeby this morning and she is being sent off today to get a necropsy done. She began to decline rapidly again and her quality of life was so poor. It's a sad day in our house. I'm thinking Peri, the white chicken, will be next. She's the blind one...

    Thank you so much for taking time and replying with such useful knowledge. :) Sorry, I have been meaning to get back to you for a long time but I have two little ones and they keep me VERY busy haha.

    911 IS THIS MAREKS?

    Thank you for your reply and insight! :) I have attached a picture of their food label. They have been on this food for a couple of weeks, before that they were on chick starter food.

    911 IS THIS MAREKS?

    I have a four month old EE that started displaying symptoms for an injured leg about five days ago. she was walking on one of her hocks and hobbling along. I put her in a Rubbermaid tote to force her to rest it, but it seems as though it may be getting worse. I took her out today to see if it...

    Chicken seeming to be gasping! Help!

    Mmm, I don’t think it’s because she is too hot. She does this even when it’s not very hot out! She is slower than the other chickens and keeps to herself a lot. Not sure if that’s a personality thing or if it’s a health thing. Her eyes are almost droopy and she seems very light in weight.

    Chicken seeming to be gasping! Help!

    She is still breathing like this, yes. She has been doing it for a couple weeks. I didn’t really think much of it at first because I thought maybe she was stressed from me holding her, but now I see that she does it most of the time. I checked her mouth today but didn’t see anything. I used to...

    Chicken seeming to be gasping! Help!

    Hi everyone! I am new to backyard chickens and I just got my first little flock a couple of months ago. One of my chickens seems like she’s gasping and unwell. She’s around 2.5 months old. I’m not sure what to do as I’m very new to chickens! here’s a link to a video of her gasping...

    Hello!

    1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I am new to chickens! Well.. I had chickens growing but not for probably 15 years or so, so I feel somewhat new to them. I’m finding out how little knowledge I have haha. (2) How many chickens do you have right now? I currently...
