I just read that mice won't come near peppermint. Anyone else heard of this? I assume it will work with rats too? I'm going to crush up peppermints or perhaps get peppermint oil and put around the chicken feed, etc. ????
I have a 4 year old barred rock rooster that has an 'orange' head. He is eating, but sets around alot. All the others have bright read combs, etc. His is orange??? What's goin on with him?
Thanks

I have a 8 week old chick. IT was fine the first 7 weeks of it's life. A week ago I found it laying in the cage on it's side. It eats, drinks, poops, peeps, etc. just great! But it can't walk or sit up. It's as tho it's left side isn't 'working' right. It's left wing droops down and left...
Do you worm ducks the same way as the chickens? How long do you have to dispose of the eggs when you use Wazine? Can loss of feather be from worms too? Besides roosters
Thanks

She doesn't seem to be eggbound. BR do go broody...but I don't think she is. Most of them are just finishing up molting...don't know if that could have anything to do with this 'problem' or not???? She doesn't act sick or peck at me, as if she was going broody, or in pain.

I have a barred rock hen that seems to be lying flat on her breast. Sometimes she 'ruffles' her feathers around. Her legs are under her. She can walk...prefers to be in a nest or on the board in front of the nests. Her head is up and is eating OK...but somethings just not right????? Any...
