    Bullying

    she is one of 3 chicks my other hen hatched and raised with the flock. They’ve always all been together. I have 2 bosses they are act identical. Should I separate them? And how?

    Bullying

    I have 3 hens that are bullies. My other newer hens run away from them and are fine but I have one who lays down instantly when she sees them coming and lets them peck her repeatedly. She doesn’t even try to get away. I put a saddle on her today because her back feathers are gone. Any advice...

    Roosters

    my hens are all 3 years old. The 2 roosters are about 9 months they were hatched by one of my broody hens (I gave her fertilized eggs) Only one of my hens has a bald back. I’ve watched both roosters go after her at the same time. The other hens seem to fight back so to speak, I’ve seen them...

    Roosters

    Ok. One of my girls is getting a bald back. There’s no aggression with the two roosters though.

    Roosters

    I have 7 hens and 2 roosters. Should I get rid of one rooster or is that an ok ratio? Thanks

    Broody hen

    I have a broody hen who’s about to hatch some chicks. She’s bullied the most so I’m worried about her chicks when they hatch. Where she’s nesting is perfect for a baby gate. Would that be enough safety or do I need a top?

    Limp

    Valbazen kills all worms that’s why I specifically bought it. I’m not new to deworming. Just wanted to know about her limping. Thanks.

    Limp

    .5 ml valbazen in a small piece of bread twice 7 days apart? That’s what I’ve done in the past.

    Limp

    It’s the ones that look like rice. I’m not sure how long she’s had them, I noticed she had a limp last night and wouldn’t rooste so I quarantined her today and saw worms. Initially I thought she sprained her leg or something. And it’s just one foot. She tries to walk but ends up laying down...

    Can worms cause a hen to limp?

    Bumble foot?

    One of my girls has a swollen toe. Thought it was bumble foot but when I opened it there was no kernel just blood and the tissue looked fairly healthy. I sprayed it with vetericyn and put neosporin and Prid on it then wrapped it up. It is bumble or not? I also soaked in epsom.
