Hi,
I'm from Quebec city and I have 2 orpingtons, 1 minorca, 1 brahma and 1 ameraucana. I want to buy one pullet/hen marans or welsummer but I don't find anything... Can you know marans or welsummer breeder's in Quebec city?
Sorry for my bad english, i'm french.
Ok, thanks!
It's weird because her sister, at my friend, has the same probleme... She not laying too. And she don't taking care of chick, no health probleme....
I'm sure that her not laying outside. I looked several times.
And no, she's not taking care of the chick. First, It's one chick and two, he is 5-6 months old, It's look like pullet than a chick haha! :P
My orpington is not moulthing, I'm sure too.
Seriously, I don't understand! ....
Other...
Hi,
My orpington is 14 months. She laying since 7 months old and she made 3-4 eggs a week (normally).
But, when I gave her a few chicks, she stopped her eggs production. Is normal, I know. :-)
The probleme is.... her chicks is 5 month old now!
No parasitesexternal and/or internal, no...
Yesterday, everything was normal and this morning too, but this afternoon I noticed that my chantecler hen's head was crooked. She drinks, eats, acts normaly but for a few hours now her nead is on her right side. I cannot say that she is loosing her balance but it seems to bother her a little...
Thanks soooo much for the link! It's very instructive.
So, now I'm sure is chewing lice. I have pyrethrins powder, is it ok?
What do you recommends? 1 treatment/day for 7 days, after 1 treatment/week for a month?
*sorry for my bad english, I'm french.
Hi,
I discovered many lices on my chicken this morning. This is a little video of this lice. No lice eggs (nits) a the moment. It's not a mite, not a northern fowl mite. Do you agree with me, that is lice?
.....
Dahhhh.... I will waiting a other month for sure, but I think your right.
I'm very unlucky this year. I bought 12 chicks and I was only 2 pullets.
