    Diagnosis?????

    We have a full grown hen approx 2yrs old. She has poop cakes on her butt like a baby chick with pasty butt. Also her feathers where she was being mounted are still very straggly looking and now have a bare spot on her back. The rooster has been separated out where he can’t get to her for a...

    Stumped on this diagnosis....

    Her barely being able to stand is what has me confused along with zero signs if mites or lice. So yeah maybe internal parasites. :hmm

    Stumped on this diagnosis....

    She hasnt recently laid. No sign of mites or lice. Our hens have free range so thye leave the barn somewhere around 5am-ish so no theres no chance to feel her crop before she eats. They eat bugs and grass all day and grain once a day.

    Butchering

    Never thought about the heart pumping pushing the blood out. Does Decapitation work with their involuntary muscle contractions afterwards? I.e. Running around like a chicken with its head cut off. We have seen the cone methods and most likely will be using that. However we had seen some with...

    Butchering

    Novice question.... Would there be a reason against snapping the birds neck to kill it before blood letting? Does or would it compromise the meat? Not opposed to cones or flat out removing the head but not a fan of letting the bird bleed to death (i.e.; a cut that won't instantly kill the bird)
