My 2 year old Rhode Island Red hadn't laid in almost 4 months and her belly was hard as rock and slightly distended. I brought her in a few months ago and started giving her warm baths and oiling her vent. Then all my girls started molting and in the middle of the molt we moved to a new place...
I picked him up at our local feed store that when my 6 girls made the move from city to country chickens they would have a man to take care of them!! But they didn't know his breed and I site don't either. And how would I determine age? ?
Over the next 2 weeks I'm going to be moving from the city to the country, which means my girls are moving as well. They are afforded quite a luxury in my backyard with space to roam and not having to be locked up/let out every day. My main question is how best to keep the stress to a minimum...
