    Prolapse

    I had a horrific prolapse (my first) in one of my very favorite hens. It was graphic and bloody and horrible. We got the ax out twice to end her suffering and I couldn't bring myself to do it. I stuck with her and I'm going to tell you exactly how we fixed her. (Update:she's still alive and...

    Prolapse

    She has never quit bleeding, not bad but a slow leak. Our vet is high prices on farm animals so that is out of the question for us. What made you decide to cull her? That's what we are going back and forth with.

    Help needed! Hen is bleeding from the back of neck

    Hello-I am needing immediate help/advice about a duck problem. I have 3 drakes who just turned two, and one hen. Because my hen gets a bit too much attention from my three boys, two weekends ago I purchased 2 more adult hens the same size as my other 4. One of the new hens was easily accepted...

    Comment by 'ManawaGirl' in item 'Leghorn'

    I have one that was given to me. I already had an established flock, and believe it or not some friends caught Dora (our leghorn) in their residential neighborhood. After some introduction time, Dora joined my flock but she is quite the bully. She's definitely a hen, but she quickly...
