She passed away tonight. She was doing well. She still seemed a bit dazed but she was eating and drinking. In fact she was eating a lot. I have been focused on a tragedy that happened early this morning and I didn’t notice she was getting a severely impacted crop. It’s the size of a golf ball...

She is doing so much better today! She is still not moving around a lot but she is responsive and she ate. She didn’t have any interest in her pellets. She wouldn’t eat scrambled eggs. I popped open some tuna and I think the smell revived her a bit and she went to town on the tuna almost eating...

Thank you. I really do feel awful and I appreciate your kindness.

I was distracted and didn’t realize one was coming in and I accidentally closed the door on her neck. She immediately fell down and started...

I am super confused about tea tree oil on chickens since I ran across this...

Ok. I am super confused. I have always been under the impression that tea tree oil could be toxic to chickens. Then I stumbled across this...

I'm super confused about this topic now because I just found this. There is so much conflicting information. I've sprayed my coop with it and have never had problems though...

She actually broke her brood at the first treatment. Her eggs are literally still hatching right now. I put them in my incubator.

I ended up just using a lice comb to brush neem oil through them.
