    My chicken seems to be Eggbound - HELP

    Thank you for checking in. I’ll start just leaving the oyster shells in the run for them, and treats you would say is better to offer every other day? I don’t give them much - just enough for everyone to get a little bit, but I do it everyday and that’s probably too much

    My chicken seems to be Eggbound - HELP

    Hi! Shes not well at all. I’m actually at the vet now waiting for them to tell me how she’s doing. She smelled so bad this morning that I think the egg is broken inside of her or something like that :( Oh wow, I didn’t know I couldn’t give her too many treats. How often do you recommend? I...

    My chicken seems to be Eggbound - HELP

    I just gave her tums because I didn’t have another form of calcium. I’m hoping she’ll be able to pass her egg. She also has a bald spot on her back that I suspect she’s been pecking and pulling her own feathers. About a week ago I’ve found a soft egg as well, so I’m thinking it must have been...

    My chicken seems to be Eggbound - HELP

    Hi everyone! This morning I discovered my young Polish chicken - whom only started laying eggs about 3 months ago - was acting strange, barely moving and very lethargic. She’s usually very energetic so I went to check on her and she was not okay at all. I checked her and her tummy, but I can’t...

    Loud barred rock

    OMG mine does the same! I love her to death, but omg she's so annoying. She just walks back and forward complaining. I am looking into making my chicken run more interesting and she if she will get distracted somehow

    Recommendations for chicken run design, plans, or companies that sell it

    Hi all! I am replacing my chicken coop and run since it's super run down because of rain, etc. I purchased a Nestera with the intention to try it and return if it does not work (I was btw Nestera and Omlet). However, the run that could be purchased through nestera is small and not "walk in"...

    Help! My chicken just pooped white worms :/

    Hi all! One of my healthiest chickens just pooped a bunch of white worms. I clean their coop regularly and it’s the first time I see this. What treatment should I give them? I have safeguard for goats. Also, what’s the dose and should I stop eating their eggs while I treat them? Thank you!!

    Mites!

    I actually just looked it up and seems that is Poultry lice and not mites. Will that treatment you’ve recommended work for that too?

    Mites!

    Hi there! So, I just discovered that two of chickens have lice (or mites, I can’t tell the difference) it seems that it’s pretty recent as I haven’t seen any eggs and they are only visible in one part of her crop. What treatment do you have recommend me? I’ve been reading online but there’s a...

    Hii! Just wanted to let you know that today she’s out and about with my other chickens and she seems okay 🙏🏼

    Is this a Broody Hen?

    Aweee this makes me feel happy. I had her and my other silkie for half a year so I wasn’t familiar with their behavior. She is out and about now, nothing seems to be bugging her 🥳

    Is this a Broody Hen?

    Yesterday after I finished cleaning her and checking her up, she took a big healthy poop in front of me - so I know that she’s alright in terms of that. She also walked away okay as well, but went back to the same position as soon as I put her back in the coop. I am waiting to see if she steps...

    Is this a Broody Hen?

    I can’t tell if it was hers or my other silkie. I’ve been trying to figure out if she’s laying just yet or not. What should I do if she’s trying to pass an egg? Maybe she’s egg bound. After I took her out of the coop she seemed to walk okay. Should I help her out tomorrow if she doesn’t come out?

    Is this a Broody Hen?

    Thank you for your reply. Her poop looks normal and healthy, she had a bit of a poopy butt so I cleaned her and checked her for lice and mites. She seems okay on that - I give them organic chicken feed from Mile four, oyster shells here and there - they go through it pretty quick. I give them...
