    22 week old Wyandotte pullet injured - looking for advice for care at home

    I wanted to give an update on Martha. I separated her from the others for about 4 days. I kept her on a wire dog crate in my house. She stayed calm once she was away from the others and I covered her crate at night. I put a limb from a tree in for a small roost and she seemed to use it. I mostly...

    I have 14 hens which are about 14 weeks old. They are in a coop and secure run which are large enough to give them all plenty of space. They were vaccinated when I purchased them online and received them in the mail. I didn't know better yet, so I gave them medicated starter food, then...
