    Free Hens To The Right Home~S.E. Iowa

    I would like to find a good home for my 5 hens. Hopefully before winter arrives. They will be 2 years old in the fall. They need a home where they can live out their life and not end up on somebody's dinner plate.

    Please Help With Hen Not Feeling Well

    Yes! When it first started, it was much runnier, and not really white. But now its runny white poo (half dried, half wet) running down her whole backside.

    Please Help With Hen Not Feeling Well

    Worming with Horse Wormer

    So worm the 3 days in a row....and then do you do it again in 10 days or not. Then I understand you have to throw out any eggs for 14 days after the last treatment, correct?

    Worming with Horse Wormer

    My question is,,,,when using the safeguard wormer, do you worm the chickens 3 days in a row? Or just the one time, then a second time 10 days later.?
