    Hen squawking periodically (Gross Picture)

    She seemed to be doing better, she was sitting up, walking around and this morning I found her passed away :( I saw a couple posts about Nutridench killing chickens. We put poultry cell in out water, we have since chicks. Could that be contributing?

    Hen squawking periodically (Gross Picture)

    I didn't see any maggots, just lots of poop. She hasn't laid an egg yet. We got her in May, so she should start laying soon-ish, but not yet. She is looking better. Haven't heard any sqauwking yet. However, have her seperated in our quarantine coop & run for now until we are sure.

    Silkie won't go into the coop at night

    I am not sure if she did. I know her owner had like over 100 silkies on their farm so its likely she didnt roost, thats a lot of roosting bars!

    Silkie won't go into the coop at night

    Hello! We purchased 2 Silkie Hens (2 year olds) a little over a week ago. Our white Silkie will NOT go into the coop at night. The Brown Silkie has acclimated just fine and goes into the coop and roosts with the other hens. I have been putting the white one in every night. I tried putting her...
