    Alert! Your Chickens May be Molting!

    One of my hens is going through a heavy molt, it's reassuring to see that it is normal. I hope we do have a cold winter....I know that sounds odd, but I live in TX, and would love some snow

    Dark Green Poop

    Yes it was purple grapes! She's pooing white with some green in it. Stopped eating grapes, but will eat finely crushed cheetos...still hand feeding her and water every hour or two. She sleeps a lot too. Do hens that are egg bound behave like this? How can I check for that? The antibiotic...

    My hen sounds like she is sick in her chest area

    Posted earlier and when I checked for lice I noticed she sounded congested in her chest area. Is there anything I can do? Please look at my earlier thread where I answered all the diagnosis questions. Thank You!

    Hen having trouble laying egg! Please help!

    One of my hens has been acting strange the past few days. She refuses to leave the box that she likes to lay her eggs in. I take her out into the run to make sure she eats and drinks, but after about 10-15 min she will return to her box. She seems healthy, she's able to walk, eat and drink...
