    Keeping roosters together

    I have never had two roosters work out living in a pen. My free range flock on an acre have about ten hens and the roosters work together like ninjas. One was slightly older

    Dying Chickens--what is it and how spreadable?

    I'm not sure exactly what the USDA says all I can keep saying is here in the South lol. Definitely doesn't hurt anything and I strongly recommend it for any kind of illness I keep over 50 chicks and chickens and have a very very low mortality rate

    Dying Chickens--what is it and how spreadable?

    The oatmeal could do nothing bad bad idk where she is located but if it's cold nights I should have stated add then as a said I would throw the kitchen sink at this until necropsy is back . Like I said before no expert i just know what I was told to so from old southern( US) farmers

    Dying Chickens--what is it and how spreadable?

    The Apple cider vinegar does help with adding vitamins it is nearly constantly in my water as well as tons of other byc members , I'm not saying it will help this particular situation but a cap full definitely wouldn't hurt anything, and even old timer remedies may be all she has while awaiting...

    I am no expert but if it were my flock I would immediately add Apple cider vinegar to the water , feed some medicated feed ASAP

    Good treats for baby chicks?

    Anything hard like corn, but soft like boiled egg ( remove shells ) or yogurt should be fine without grit. I will introduce grit at 3 weeks of age
