Are there probiotics you recommend?

She's a speckled sussex. I need to weigh her but, I wouldn't say he's a large bird pretty average.

Yes I can currently get Safeguard Horse or the Goat Liquid. I just called the one vet locally and they only do farm calls so it would be 96 to come out 86 for an exam and 100 for a fecal...seems a bit much for one chicken. She's consistently had kind of a messy but for a long while but...

What dosage do you use for your chickens? I have a couple girls with messy but and it doesn't stink and it's not white or yellow like vent gleet so I'm thinking worms. I found Safe-Guard AquaSol is meant for chickens but, I can't find it anywhere. it says : Safe-Guard® AquaSol in broiler...

8 week old Blue Red Laced Wyandotte (hopefully pullet)

So I had purchased four pullets of different breeds and have gotten two cockrell's for sure. I want to make sure this little girl is an 8 week old Blue Red Laced Wyandotte pullet before I drive back to the Poultry Farm.

I could really use some help. I know Light Brahmas tend to be harder to sex early on but this one has me worried it's a Cockerel. She's supposed to be 9 - 10 weeks old on Friday. It's kind of a bully which I didn't think was typical forl Brahmas. Her/His feathers are also not as developed as the...

I agree...which is so odd right?

At a feed store in Camarillo, CA. Local ag kids sell coop ready pullets. I found this thread and it looks SO MUCH like her. She has the little ear poofs that are small and round and I see a lighter spot near her ear. Not sure if her comb will go red or not...

I picked this beautiful girl up yesterday. She was listed as an ameracauna but, looking at pictures and finding one discussion on here I'm thinking she's an Olive Egger - half Isbar and half Maran? What do you think? Either way she's beautiful and super chill and a sweetheart already. But, is...
