    Chicken stumbling/losing weight/crop not full

    I just had a vet come out and confirm it was Marecks. She was put down and they took her with them. She was around my newest chick so we shall see if it was passed on. The vet said I would know for sure in 2 weeks. I hope I get lucky though. We sure will miss our Pearl girl.

    Chicken stumbling/losing weight/crop not full

    I don't believe she was vaccinated. I have been giving her a scrambled egg but will try the NurtriDrench. I do have her separated. She did seem to be limping but I don't see any noticeable injury. Thanks for the advice.

    Hen attacked by dog

    Some told me that after a day or so if they look like they are healing dont flush anymore just keep up with the neospori. And I did and she did great. I wouldnt force anything yet. It is traumatized as it is. Maybe if she starts acting lethargic and such. They are unbelievable things that...
