    Fly strike & Hole - Odd Problem

    Thank you everyone for your help & guidance! The little white hen seems to be thriving now. We've provided her with her own coop (one of those store bought enclosures with the coop attached we got from a friend) next to the regular big chicken house. Now she's on grass all day with shade &...

    Oh my goodness everything you said makes complete sense..... Disheartening but I'm relieved to make sense of it all. The damage initially appeared extensive. I'm shocked she pulled through honestly. Up until the yolk cleaning, she was doing alright which seemed impossible. I found the above...

    Fly strike & Hole - Odd Problem

    Hi all! This is an extremely unusual health issue and I'm looking for any possible help. Three weeks ago I noticed one of our hens was sluggish & poo covered. I immediately took her for a bath only to discover the entire circular area under her vent/anus was covered in maggots. We rinsed &...
