    sulfadimethoxine

    Hi--I am confused and looking for help! One of my chickens has a respiratory issue and the vet recommended that I use sulfadimethoxine for 5 days. This is a laying hen and the instructions say not to use on chickens over 16 weeks old (?) So if I do, when can you eat the eggs again?

    bantams and standard chickens

    Has anyone had success in introducing younger bantams to older standards (not adults)? Or is it impossible?

    introducing older "regular size" chickens to bantams

    We have regular sized chickens that are 10 weeks old and enjoying their coop and run. We also have 6 week old bantams. When and how do I introduce the bantams to the big chickens???

    Hi--I am a new chicken owner and need some advice!

    thanks for your thoughts! I am nervous about how old they should be before I begin this process! I do have a small cage I can put out in the run during the day--but what do I do at nite?? They are so cute and friendly, I don't want them to get hurt!
