    A sign of broodiness? Yellow droppings and odd behavior.

    I offered some mushy food yesterday with some acv, but both hens didn't seem to like it. I'll try again later with just water and crumble. I saw her drink a good amount of water last night just before bed. As for her diet, she seems to have taken a liking to a goji berry tree I have in my...

    Mareks? Mites? Help Please!

    Yes im working on the mites right now. I’m not too informed on Mareks but yes, I thought it could be a cause due to her legs. Other hens are walking just fine. Her crop is emptying and i can show pictures of her droppings in a second. As for vitamins, what are some recommendations? She doesn’t...

    @Wyorp Rock Her crop did empty but unfortunate she isn’t looking better today. Her foot placement is causing me concern.

    Update > got her to eat some eggs, and gave her some wet feed and veggies. Still off balance when moving. The sound in the background is coming from another hen.

    Can the spray also be used directly on the bird or just the coop? I’m planning to order it soon

    To answer egg concerns, she has not laid an egg in months. Her last was probably in spring, it’s now almost winter here.
