    16 wk Cuckoo Marans Hen or Roo?

    I was giving 3 CMs, told all 3 are pullets. However, the head/neck of this chicken is noticeably whiter than the other 2, and it’s a bit bigger. Not significantly bigger, though. I hope this video posts. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/3ZFca1GBFraQDKES/?mibextid=WC7FNe I know CMs are really...

    So…I totally didn’t even think about egg withdrawal …Endocox 🤢

    Wow, I guess it’s a good thing that the pullets won’t be laying for another 2 months and 3 of my hens are molting. I will toss all the eggs I have from the time I started with the Endocox. It found recommendations for Endocox here in the forums, but would have never given it to my flock if I...

    I was given 3 pullets a month ago. After separation time, they integrated it’s my older flock without any problems at all. Yay! But about a week later, I noticed bloody ick in one of the pullets poo a couple days in a row. It’s been very wet here and chances are the pullets weren’t immune to...

    What to do in a power outage at extreme cold temps

    I heat cinderblocks on the woodstove. Switch them out with a warm one every hour or so. Can also put metal water bowl on it to keep water from freezing.

    Since nothing so far is an actual fix, I am hoping it fixes itself. I actually wish they would molt and stop laying. Maybe all would be good when they start laying again. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Has anyone been able to fix thin shell problems?

    Yes, some feather loss but not very much. I thought they molted in the fall rather than in the spring? I’m in Alaska so spring happened just last month. I did retreat with drops of ivermectin pour-on about 3 days ago.

    I think that may be an issue with these hens also. Even though I feed back their egg shells to them and there is calcium in their layer feed, and this hasn’t been a problem with them in the 1 1/2 year they have been laying until recently. It’s very distressing.

    I have always fed them back their crushed shells as well as oyster shell always available.

    They have always had layer feed and are on high protein layer feed right now.
