I do believe you. I was questioning it to begin with. I’m sure it works at killing the mites but probably isn’t great for the chicken. I’m just not sure if the Vaseline will do it completely or not but I’ll give it a try. All I have currently is petroleum jelly or aquaphor do you think either of...
Can someone tell me what this is? If it is scaly leg mites, what is the best treatment?
I have some new birds coming later this week and I know scaly leg mites are contagious. Do they have to come in contact with the affected birds to get it?
I have way too many roosters and need to move a few along. I have a couple buff/blue buff Brahma, a couple Isabel Brahma, and a couple black Ameraucana. All of these I got last year as hatching eggs from good breeders and had them shipped to me. I hatched and raised them. I am located in Marion...
Well I posted in the July hatch a long about my very first attempt at hatching and how it ended in 0 chicks. I tried again and this time I dry hatched because the first hatch was too wet, we have very high humidity here. This time I happy to say that I have 3 beautiful serama chicks. My first...

I have 2 sebright pullets, they were about 10 weeks old. I just noticed last night that one was acting weird. It didn’t run at all when I tried to pick it up, was pretty lethargic. It went to roost early and wasn’t interested in mealworm treats. I hadn’t noticed anything wrong up until this...
My 2nd attempt is coming along. Seramas are developing well and so are the ameraucanas which are a few days behind the seramas. So hoping I can get some chicks to hatch this time 🤞🏼🤞🏼
