    Chicken unsteady on feet, collapses and sits a lot

    Thank you for saying that. Some are too quick to say “cull” but I only have 6 and they all have names and allow me to love on them. I KNOW they can have a hi mortality rate, but… 🙏🏼 Thank You

    Something attacked my duck!

    You can get them in the pharmacy at Walmart. It’s just what you would use on yourself if you got hurt. I like the aerosol version of normal saline because it comes out in a stream and allows you to clean the wound a little better than if you just poured it over the wound. Betadine is what you...

    Watch Dates on Poultry Feed!

    Thank you so much for the post! I’m a new chicken momma and had no idea about expiration days! I have been buying from TS, and will check my stalk for out of date feed. Again, thank you for your post! 🐓

    Easter eggers

    We personally got into them for the eggs, but when we watched them and interacted with them, each has their own personality. They are entertaining, affectionate and talkative. One Leghorn hen, Bevus, ALWAYS has a lot to say. She is nosey and will let you know how she feels…lol Her hatch mate...

    Wheezing and sneezing

    Now I see this on my little Tilli’s comb. It appears to be a scabbing. I never noticed any of the flock picking on her. I may have missed it 🤷🏼‍♀️ Her comb has never been any larger but never noticed this. As I was washing her face and head, I thought it was dirt. She LOVES her dirt baths. But...

    Wheezing and sneezing

    Thank you this helps me as well. I’ll do this next time. She is a small Bantam, doesn’t feel like she is losing weight. She is wheezing, sneezing and had a little draining of the right eye. We did just put some new straw down in their run and pine flake in the roost. She is eating and drinking...

    Wheezing and sneezing

    I have a dolce bantam hen that I just found today was wheezing. Can’t get into a vet until the third. Any suggestions? I have separated her from the flock and I know this just started.

    Animal attack

    I had a chick that had one wing torn off. The bone was clean cut so no trimming. Cleaned with sterile saline and used triple antibiotic ointment worked. She’s all grown up now and doing just fine.

    Odd behaviour please assist

    Hi. I’m in California and our summers get hot too ( not as hot as yours) I make sure my Duccles (I have 3) and the 4 big girls, have electrolytes in their water during summer. I also freeze large water bottles and place them randomly in the run. They seem to play with them, but most importantly...

    What did I get?

    Thank you! I was afraid of that. I got them for eggs. Well, I really like to watch them and talk to them all. So, I guess I just have 3 small egg layers.
