    Chicken butt mystery

    Alright so my OG (older girls) I have had for 2 years now. About 3 months ago, I lost my favorite hen to some kind of dirty butt thing. Now one of my leghorns is having the same thing. She has diarrhea, very tired, not really eating or drinking. Any ideas about what could be wrong?

    5~8 week old chicks died in one day

    To give more details since I just witnessed it. The chick appears to be very tired. So tired it can't move or moves very slowly and then it gets trampled by my other chicks and doesn't seem to care. It just lays there until it is trampled to death.

    7th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2016 Hatch-A-Long

    I love Cayugas. My girl out lays the pekin. But that could be because the pekin had everything wrong with it when she hatched. And my Cayuga boy is so friendly.

    Feed them the shells from the eggs you are getting. Crush them up and mix them with some yogurt. Basically they need some more calcium. But only feed the shells that your chickens lay nothing from another flock or store bought eggs to prevent any cross contamination. But it could just be a new...
