I'm not an expert on chicken diseases or treatments but penicillin, specifically ampicillin, (orally) has worked miracles for my chickens. Some may say it won't work but try telling that to my chickens that are running happily outside, even though they were almost near death last winter!

I'm looking for something that is automatic or at LEAST has a fan (but mostly automatic).
I don't really need a big one as I'm only trying to hatch just a few.
Before anyone...
My hen Tequila laid her first egg two days ago. I was wondering when she will start getting broody. I'm pretty sure she's laying fertile eggs because our rooster's been messing around with her.
I'm not sure of her exact breed but I've posted a picture and some BYC members think she's a Brown...
Cool! I really REALLY want some but I have to wait and see if my folks will give me the green light.
When are you passing by Houston?
Maybe I can convince them by then
I just hope that they're pullets!
