    Sexing silkies

    So the two finally seem to be cockerels, but I have also got this one. It has much smaller comb than the other two. Is it a pullet? It is four months old. Thank you!

    Getting rid of coccidiosis

    Hello everyone. So we got results from the lab today proving we have a coccidiosis infection in our flock. We are starting Sulfacox, taking 3 days, then 2 days off and 3 days medication. I was wondering which day should I clean and desinfect the coop? When do they stop pooping the pathogens...

    Curing salmonella

    We have a suspicion of Salmonella in our flock. I am waiting for the lab results, they told me Salmonella and Campylobacter are suspected, they have to isolate it. I wanted to ask - in case it proves we do have Salmonella in the flock, can it be treated? I read many articles on this topic, and...

    Eye infection

    Thank you. I did return her to the flock, she didn't like the isolation, but otherwise she is totally fine. Another araucana had a bit sick eye, I applied the drops and she seems okay. Today another araucana seemed to me to have "blurred voice", hey eyes are okay. Are the araucanas more...

    Is this blood in poop?

    I found unusual poop, is it blood? I do not know which chicken's it was, none of them has symptoms. Two had inflammed eye in the past week, were separated. Also, one marans has this unsolid beige poop for the past 1-2 weeks, is it okay? Also no symptoms... Thanks for advice.

    Sexing silkies

    I know it is too early but any guesses what the gender of these two silkies is (before my kids get too attached to them)? I think the brown-beige is a vockerel and the grey a pullet. The brown is bigger too. Thank you!

    Eye infection

    One of our 7 week old araucanas started coughing, sneezing, had runny nose and inflamed eye and produced weird noise while peeping. She sat with closed eyes, did not run away from us like always. I separated her, gave her eye drops against infection, but it got worse. I decided to cull her...
