    Chicken falls over and can't get up

    This raises a red flag for me. It sounds like a vitamin deficiency which will result in twisted neck or crook neck or wry neck (has many names) as well as the weakness you described. I don't believe any one feed supplies all that they need. If she is eating only a wet mash she's missing out...

    Chicken falls over and can't get up

    Was she injured that you know of? She sounds awfully weak. I always use crushed up B vitamins and feed scrambled egg or even raw egg yolk to sick/weak birds. I'll crush up a B or B Complex or B12 and mix with their water. Just depends on whether or not they are still eating on their own.

    The Welsummer Thread!!!!

    Very pretty girl and nice looking rooster you posted a few pages back. Are they from my eggs? The roos change in color a bit as they age so you won't really know what he will look like till he's grown. The girls pretty much stay the same. She's a beauty.

    A Journey Through a Different Way - Funny Story Pg. 69

    Thank you for the kind note. It was years ago that I started on this journey and began this thread. As I read back over it I remember times of joy and laughter and times of saddness and tears. It's been quite a journey. We came to this place and began our farm with 13 chickens, 3 cats and 2...

    The Olive-Egger thread!

    Awww - she's very pretty. Are the boys blue? This is the first year to get the splash. I've recently hatched my first splash offspring here that will reside here. This is several generations into my "project" of Olive Eggers which began with one lone blue Ameraucana who lived in my Marans pen...

    Utah!

    I have one like that and it will hold a lot of heavy eggs. I also use it in my garden when digging potatoes and/or carrying in heavy produce. Many uses for those antique egg baskets.

    The Welsummer Thread!!!!

    I'm glad you are happy with your eggs and that they all arrived in one piece. Also, thanks for the free publicity. We can use all that we can get. I try to ship the speckled eggs since that's what everyone seems to like most. But they also lay a dark, solid egg with little to no speckles...
