    can you train a dog to not hurt your chickens?

    I had all five of my dogs around my chickens - even in the coop - with no problems. Then they flew over the fence into the dog's yard and the Dachshund got all three. The other dogs even ignored the dead chickens but the Dachshund is such a prey driven dog that when they flew in front of him...

    Runny poop and loss of appetite

    Got powder for mites and lice. Only wormer they had for chickens was Wazine 17 (piperazine). Looks like 1 ounce per gallon of water?? Also got Corid but it is 20% not 9% so not sure how to use.

    Runny poop and loss of appetite

    She looks fine except for runny stool. She barely walks and acts like her feet hurt - but they are not discolored or swollen or anything. She has not eaten today or yesterday but has been drinking. She doesn't smell except for discharge stuck on her rear feathers. Not sure what mites or lice...
