I have 20 ten week old chickens, all seem to be healthy, a few have been having yellow diahrrea and I don't know what to give them to clear it up. Any suggestions??
No my pen doesn't have a top, but it's 6 ft wire. They seem kind of flighty in the coop, I just don't want them to get out because I have a stray cat running around.
My chicks are currently 5 weeks old. In a couple of weeks I want to let them out into the pen. I've clipped my older chickens but I'm not sure when the soonest age is that I could clip my chicks.
When I git my rooster last year he was a good bit younger than my hens, so they picked his rear end a good bit. The feathers grew back for the most part, I figured after the first mold he would staiten up, but his tail feather aren't as high or as colorful as I'd like them to be. I'm open to any...
Well, that chick died and one other since then. The hatchery thinks the chick may have had a birth defect (mentally). The other chick was acting lethargic and later died, now I have another and its acting the same. The hatchery told me to put a drop of honey on it's beak and that should perk...
I just picked up my chicks from the post office this morning. I just checked them and I have one austalorp that stands for a while then starts jumping and chirping while scratching violently at its head. Does anyone know if this is normal or what might cause this?
Thanks
