    Dog has been scratching...

    To genuinely know if one's dog is allergic to *anything* is to take it to a veterinary specialty school and have it tested for allergies.... no general practitioner vet can say if the dog is allergic to anything; otherwise it is speculation or at best, a guess. They are not a dermatologist , nor...

    Dog has been scratching...

    There are *soooooo* many things that could be the cause. I'll list a few : low or no humidity in the air ( aka dry skin )..... I give my labradors Vitamin E caps during the winter to help with the dry skin and boy does it get bad even though we keep a huge stock pot of water on the wood...

    When do Easter Eggers start laying?

    Bruce, The rooster is pecking them to be mean. Usually just a few times a day. He has never tried to fly up at them but will chase them away from treats or the water bucket... flat out, he's being a bully...........which is why I thought he is doing it because they weren't laying yet or...

    TSC- light yellow chicks with black speck's

    I have never heard of that one before. I'll go check them out on a google search. I hope that's not what they are. The hawks around here get the white chickens but dont bother the other colors. And honestly, I dont want white eggs. Thank you for the reply. I did post a couple of photos.
