    Eye infections in flock from breeder. How do I stop it from spreading

    Bought this new flock from a local breeder that I never used before. One chick died the day I brought them home. The second one seemed to recover and a third one only had one eye (that 's what it looked like at the time). These chicks are mixed ages between 3 to 4 months. Anyway, I've had...

    Thanks so much. I did let her out and she is now fine. Didn't go near the nest boxes all day. Your help was greatly appreciated.

    Trying to Un-Broody a hen.

    Thanks so much. I did let her out and she was so funny. She ran from the goat barn (where she was in the cage) and quickly ran into the chicken run to grab more food although she had plenty in her cage. From there she ran outside and starting rolling in the dirt. I checked the coop and no...

    Trying to Un-Broody a hen.

    I have a broody hen that I'm trying to get un-broody. As it states all over this site, I put her in a wire dog cage 5 days ago. I thought she would lay an egg to let me know she wasn't broody anymore but she hasn't. Is there any other way to tell if she's not broody anymore besides letting...

    broody hen in cage, how do I know she's not broody anymore?

    No, No, she was broody but I'm trying to un-broody her. It says all over this site to put a broody hen in a wire cage which I did 5 days ago and I'm wondering when I know she is not broody anymore besides starting to lay. Thanks

    Please help!! 12 week old chicks with blood and mucus stools

    I am using food grade. Do you think I could have put too much in their food. Someone told me to put 1 cup to 25lbs of feed. I only had a little left in my can so I just sprinkled some in with that and mixed. Maybe I over did it??? Thanks for checking those med for me.
