    2 chickens with reddened skin

    I have 2 chickens out of 7 that have redness under their feathers near their butt. One has redness on top. What kind of ointment would work well in reducing the swelling and the redness? Would calendula or neem and lavender work or manuka honey or aloe. I have tried the honey not working.

    changing a bandage on a large wound on the back of my chick

    one year old. she may have scratched herself on a wire bc it was a large wound that seemed to have gotten bigger and using silver and manuka honey packed in the wound with vetrap but it did not stay on. We isolated her from the rest. Home treatment only.

    chicken molting and loss of feathers how much do I give of the feather fixer?

    I read that we should separate our rooster (now one year old) and that we can mix feather fixer feed in with their layer feed. How much of that should we mix in with the feed? about one cup or more? The feathers my girls are all plucked out on top of their backs. I wish I had known how to fix...
