    New sneezing chickens

    I have linked a video of them below! I have Vikron-S on its way to me for cleaning. I videoed them for 2 mins yesterday and they each sneezed twice lol even if it is the infectious bronchitis, are you saying that will also never fully go away? Will it spread to my flock even with them isolated?

    New sneezing chickens

    I just checked on them this morning and they each have a little bit of clear mucous coming out of their nostrils. They are spunky as ever and flying all around in there, so definitely no lethargy. No eye swelling or foam. I have them in their own isolation coop away from my whole flock! Any...

    I transferred a bunch of roosters for a friend today and was given 2 leghorn hens as payment. The leghorns are sneezing and the owner said they’ve been treating with garlic lol I got them after dark and put them in an isolated coop away from my flock. So, I haven’t been able to full inspect for...

    How to manage a rude rooster?

    I need to find someone to help me! Haha I’d like to learn, but I’d like to help someone at least the first couple times - we would like meat birds at one point! I’m just so annoyed he decide to be mean randomly. He charged me when I was trying to get a snake out of my dogs pen. Thankfully I was...

    Thank you so much for the link! This is a fantastic learning platform, I am just not familiar enough yet to navigate certain info! Haha Also, he is fully secured in the coop & run!

    How to manage a rude rooster?

    thank you all for your replies! Ugh, I am just not ready to cull a chicken yet. I will probably have my husband or neighbor do it for me. I’ve done research previously and did see the broomstick method which seems to be the best. But then now I’ll have to do research on potentially dressing a...

    How to manage a rude rooster?

    Hello all! Back with more questions! We had MANY roosters out of our straight run chickens (8 out of 17) and we lost a few ones when younger and I was able to find homes for the rest. We kept 1, he was from one our first batches of chicks from locals. He’s an olive egger/BCM cross and seemed to...

    Normal vent?

    I have attached nutrition stats of the food I purchase for my flock (locally made & sourced)! I do have 11 hens (some still young) and 1 rooster. Would the grower be fine to keep them on long term as long as I have an adequate source of calcium? I have OS available at all times and they get a...

    Normal vent?

    Hey all! I’m a first time chicken tender and got my FIRST couple eggs from my RIR girl who is just over 18w old (hatched 3/7/25). She started laying last week - I found 2 just egg whites on their poop shelf and 1 super soft egg shell. I had 2 fresh eggs that week (one on Tuesday & Thursday) and...
