    Sexing silkies

    Blind silkie lethargic

    When she eats she opens her eyes. They are clouded but her pupils seem ok. She shows no sign of an eye infection. It's hard to tell with a silkie cause the eye is black. When her eyes are open her head sways back and forth. Like she can't focus. And when she pecks at food shes off to one side by...

    Blind silkie lethargic

    She is only eating because I feed her. Every hour I wake her up and put the food in her face so she pecks randomly and I make such sure her random pecks obtain food.

    Quarantine question

    Quarantine question

    I do not have central heat. And my air exchanger has no vents in those rooms when the doors are shut. Also both pullets come from a vaccinated environment for coccidiosis and Marek's

    Quarantine question

    I have my regular flock in the coop. And the new ones are in separate rooms of my house. One is in a room in the basement and one in a spare room on the second floor. I'm changing clothes and washing up between visits. It's the best I can do with the space I have. Is that enough for a biological...
