    Blue Ameraucana thread!

    I am in the Kelowna area and have a splash roo. The women I got all my ameraucanas from doesn't breed the specific colors together so they are not show quality and I have no idea if they breed true. This probably isn't what you are looking for but if you're interested let me know and I can send...

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    We decided to put her down today. The last two days she stopped eating and I didn't even see her drink. She was starting to breath out of her mouth and was getting very thin. She hadn't really been pooping much and her crop was empty. All of the other birds seem fine at this point. If any...

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    I have been adding vitamins to her water. Her one squinted eye seems to be better, but she still isn't moving around at all. I talked to the hatchery where she is from and they really don't think it's Mareks disease, which would be wonderful. They said the squinted eye could be from ammonia in...

    They didn't really recommend vaccinations. I also talked to my feed store and they hadn't heard of people worming their chickens around here... How long would I have to throw out the eggs if I wormed them?

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    I will look into worms to see if the symptoms match. I talk to the women I got my 6 ISO browns from and she got them from Millar Hatchery out of Alberta. She got them unvaccinated and also didn't feed them medicated feed. She talked to the feed store she bought them from and they really didn't...

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    I went and checked her for lice and mites. I remember doing this with my dad as a child, but didnt have any. She does seem worse today, not really moving at all. I did get her to eat a little COB. I put poly tonin in her water yesterday and again today. I am going to call the women I bought...

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    Thank you, I am in Canada and have found a vet that will test her if she dies. She does seem to be a little better on her own. She is eating and drinking I also gave her some yogurt and she liked that. She also layer an egg. I really hope it's not Mareks as I am just starting my flock and would...

    So I just went out there to separate her. She was on her side/back she still seems to have her wits but can't really move. Her one eye is still squinted but it hasn't changed color.

    Thank you, I will separate her tomorrow. She is 8 months old, not sure if that relates to Mareks or not.

    sick ISA Brown Hen?

    Hello, I would love some I'm put here. I have 1 ISAbrown hen who I noticed has a squinted eye about 5 days ago. I thought maybe she had been pecked and have just been watching her for the last few days. But this evening when I went out to lock them up she was lying down in the hen house, she got...
