    Possible sick chicken, not sure what to do

    I'll have to sign onto my computer to re-upload the video again. She's doing better today, was actually staying with everyone else instead of being all by herself and not moving much. I got more of that liquid mixture in her today too.... The gasping appeared to be reduced too. I just don't...

    Possible sick chicken, not sure what to do

    Here is a video of her last night. This morning I held her for a while, it appears when you see her beak opening, that's when shes breathing because I can't feel her breathing otherwise. And its long pauses between the open mouthed behavior. She is also now separated from the rest... meaning...

    Possible sick chicken, not sure what to do

    No discharge and none of my hens are laying yet. The only "symptoms" I see is the open mouth behavior and the roundness of her...also her legs appear shorter than the others

    Possible sick chicken, not sure what to do

    I am in a training all day but when I get home I will be tending to her and will post a video/picture. It isn't hot here, we've had cold weather the past month and the warmest it's gotten is 77.

    I have 4 hens and one rooster, they are all Rhode Island reds. They've all been doing so well and just reached 19 weeks. Yesterday, I noticed the smallest of them was acting off.

    My dog killed my chicks

    I have a puggle (pug/beagle) and a black lab mix. Beagle looks at them like dinner but mostly ignores them and my lab is slightly afraid of them. We have pictures of the baby chickens climbing all over the lab, she just hides.

    De-worming and Wazine Concern

    Hi All - So I found this with my 4 week old chicks yesterday... Went to the feed store for more feed and to get some advice on what it could be. Showed the manager the picture, he recommended Wazine to deworm. The chicks are also still on medicated starter as well. However, after...

    blood in baby chicks stool

    I just found this! Our chicks are 4 weeks tomorrow and on purina start and grow medicated. Unsure if it's blood or intestinal lining. What do you all think?

    Newbie brooder question

    Hi there! Our lows are mid 70s right now at night. The lowest projected temp for the next two weeks is 68. We've already turned the heat lamp off in the garage for their brooder because they were sleeping away from it and separately because I think it was too warm after they were 3 weeks old.

    Newbie brooder question

    My chicks are almost 4 weeks old. We are here in Florida where the temps have remained in the 90s-80s. Our winter is very mild obviously and it probably won't even get "cold" until January. Do you think 6 weeks is ok to put them outside in their coop, with this weather? They are RIRs. Thanks :)
