    How to keep gnats away from coop??

    I currently have a flock of four birds in my backyard and previously never encountered gnats, as they’re not very common in Malaysia. The gnats(I think they are, tiny little flying black bugs) are always on my chickens heads sucking blood(but the gnats don’t bite us at all) and one of my...

    When can I introduce younger chicks to a 10 week old chick?

    Good morning everyone! Update: I added the chicks at 5weeks old to the coop with a separation, and after two weeks I removed the separation with supervision just to see what would happen, but the older chicken(it’s a kampung chicken, a bit aggressive breed) chased them around the coop and pecked...

    Chick with bubbly eyes?

    Here’s a picture of the label more clearly. I’ll start adding it to their water tomorrow and see how it goes. Thanks for everything, I really appreciate it!

    Chick with bubbly eyes?

    Thanks for showing these options, I checked the links but these only ship to US and I live in Malaysia, so I won’t be able to buy from here. Would the 10% work though?

    Chick with bubbly eyes?

    Hi all, I had to buy a different Tylosin tartrate 10% because the link you sent was out of stock. However I’m not really sure how much powder to put in their water, it says here 10g per gallon for 5 days. Does this sound right? Just checking because this medicine is for larger animals as well

    Chick with bubbly eyes?

    Hi all, I have a backyard flock of 3 chickens and recently noticed one of my 2-month old Lohmann Browns had bubbly eyes, and the shape didn’t seem as they normally are. Poop is normal, eating and drinking well, active as usual, but last night she was chirping more than usual, especially when I...

    When can I introduce younger chicks to a 10 week old chick?

    Hi all! The older chick, now 13 weeks old, has been added to the coop, and the younger chicks are almost a month old. The lowest temperature it can get outside during nighttime is 23C, so could I start putting them in a cage in the coop or are they still too young for the temperature?

    Help!! My chicken was attacked by a cat!!

    Okay, the mites have been treated and her wound is almost fully healed so I put her in her new coop yesterday. She’s doing fine, however she has some trouble flying, because when she falls she can’t really balance and somehow ends up on her side.

    Help!! My chicken was attacked by a cat!!

    I've taken a closer look at them, and they are indeed mites. There aren't so many, I will treat them soon. The neosporin and saline are helping, and she is resting well, eating and drinking. Thanks all for the quick advice. I will update.
