    The skin is still covering, no puncture or fluid. All seems to be internal. I'll try to get a picture soon, she seems to be doing fine, walking around with the others and foraging well. I'll look for anything else that could give a clue!

    Help! Chicken struggles to poop, abscess below vent

    Thanks! We did the Epsom Salt bath. After that, the prolapse had gone back in by itself. We applied the cream, and she seems to be doing much better. We will keep checking on her periodically.

    Chicken killed

    Hey there, we just had a chicken that got killed. Photos attached. Was it a hawk? Also, we had 8 girls, 4 went to the coop and 3 ran off. We found one under our deck. Was silent and still and we'll hidden. Will the other 2 come back if they are alive? No signs of their feathers. Can we eat her...
