    Chickens are dying (1 a week)

    Thank you all! Update: she is doing well. We found out the bloody comb was from her fighting with other hens ( when she wasn’t looking well, they approached her and pecked at her- this is why she had the bloody comb). Now she is eating and free ranging and poop is looking better. We dewormed her...

    Here are a few pics that I took this morning. She is eating but walking slowly and wanting to lay in shady brush.

    Chickens are dying (1 a week)

    Okay. Do you happen to have a picture of what they look like? We do a thorough coop clean once a week and use dimecious earth each time.

    Chickens are dying (1 a week)

    We are located in the US- NH. We have seen a decrease in egg production, but assumed it was because they are 3+ years old now. We do get eggs everyday but only half the amount that we used to. Thank you for your help!

    Thank you all for your insight and support! I will pick some deworming medicine up today for sure. I did not know that I could send the chicken somewhere. Thanks. I will look into that too if I lose another one.

    Chickens are dying (1 a week)

    The poop appears normal for all but 1 that we just isolated this evening. She is lethargic, won’t walk around, pale droopy comb, and green poop remanence on her hind feathers. They all seem healthy and happy until we find one the next day dead. This is terrible. Not sure if there is anything we...

    There are no signs of any predators or attacks. We have seen rats in the run in the past though.

    Chickens are dying (1 a week)

    Hi, I was hoping to get some insight here. We have had a flock of NH Reds for 3+ years. We have noticed over the past month that 1 chicken a week is dying. They all look healthy, we keep their run and coop clean, no signs of illness. We let them free range once a day. We don’t put any...

    Chicken wheezing

    Thanks for the response! We kept her in the house, in a crate for 1 night. The next morning, there was no more wheezing. We have paid extra close attention to her and nothing so far. We are hoping it was something she ate.

    Chicken wheezing

    Hello All, One of my hens is wheezing but not often. We noticed it when we were free ranging her yesterday. It seems to last longer when she is excited/stressed (picking her up). She is eating, drinking, and pooping fine. We tried the olive oil trick to see if something was stuck in her...
