I recently lost 6 4 month old chickens.1 every other day..i treated them with corrid...the others were fine for a few weeks and now its starting back up again,i just lost 2 in the last 2 days.. and its with the same flock..symptoms are they lay kind of on one side and cant move very well,they...

I agree..and if it continues i will get rid of both of them...but it has been 3 days since they have come after us..but that could change tmrw...i do have a question do they tend to do that at a young age and grow out of it or once they start thats it?? They are going to be a year next month
I walk in with a riding crop and pushed him back with it as he came at me..didnt phase him one bit..and im not afraid if him and go straight towards him and he still comes after me..and hes doing it to my husband too..the only thing i can think of is he has no place to go when we go to feed them..
Im a newer chicken mom and my rooster just started flogging me and i have no idea why..i feed his little butt everyday and you would think im trying to kill him..are there any tricks in stopping this behavior??
