    Bathing chickens

    OK so this is my first year owning a flock. And my question is obviously about bathing the hens. I have never actually bathed the them. I have wipe them down with a warm cloth with Teatree oil and that is all. Any suggestions on bathing them. I live in a very warm area so I think a bath would be...

    Found something attached to yolk

    I did. Sorry, but everything looked the same inside all around.

    Found something attached to yolk

    Yes. What would cause that?

    Found something attached to yolk

    No I do not think so. Either way it would take some time to develop right? This was laid this morning.

    Found something attached to yolk

    So I went to fry an egg and noticed this attached to the yolk. It looked almost like a piece of oatmeal(I know that's not what it is). But didn't look like a worm. Any ideas? Should I be concerned?

    Wound on my easter egger.

    I was in the coop this afternoon and noticed my Easter Egger has this nasty scab near her tail. I don't think there are any other culprits besides my chickens. Any advice on how to treat and take care of it, or if it looks infected or abnormal? Or if it might be something other than a wound?

    They are about 5 to six months.

    Male or female

    Thanks. I actually found a brown egg in a nest this morning(which is the color a buff would lay, right?). I figured the Buffs were both hens, and even from a young age thought the Barred Rock was male.

    The Buffs.

    Can someone tell me if my Buffs are hens or not? I think the Barred Rock is a rooster, but I'm not terribly sure.[/IMG]

    Not roosting "properly"

    Also it makes sense then that it's the older ones roosting on the cage.
