    What should I do for my bantam's ear infection?

    I'm not a professional or anything, but it could possibly be Avian Flu or Infectious Corzya. I have had a few birds with IC, they had respiratory problems that could look like an ear infection. Has she coughed or sneezed or shown any signs of sick behavior?

    URGENT HELP WITH DUCKLINGS AND MUM

    Are you sure the neck is broken? Usually, when any bird is dead their neck looks broken. I would keep the other two separated, just in case of any diseases. Unfortunately, sometimes chickens/ducks suddenly die after hatching because they just aren't strong enough, just like some humans at birth...

    Hello there! :) I'm looking to buy some assorted bantams from TSC, but I haven't bought them from there yet and I'm wondering how much they cost per chick. I know it can vary depending on my store location and different breeds, but I couldn't find anything at my local store or online.

    They haven't squatted yet, but my roosters have definitely found their way to them.

    Is there any tips that encourage laying in the winter?

    Today I bought some straw and they seem to be loving it! They all were scraping and sitting in it, so maybe we'll be expecting a few eggs. Also, thank you everyone! I will for sure look into everything! :)
