    Is this Molting or Mites?

    He’s the only rooster - but he’s not the only one with the missing feathers- so that would mean I most likely have one bored hen somewhere? Ordering some chicken swings today. They are in a run all day- I don’t feel comfortable letting them free range with the hawks in my woods

    Is this Molting or Mites?

    Wouldn’t it be strange for someone to feather peck at my rooster? Or no? I saw one of my ISA reds pecking at his back while I was in there but figured she was either helping with molting or helping with the mites.....

    Is this Molting or Mites?

I went out today and noticed that all of a sudden, at least 3 of my chickens (one rooster and two hens) have missing feathers on their back (near saddle area). My questions are...

    18 week old laid first egg (soft and broken)and seems egg bound still! Help!

    I have an 18 week old ISA Brown that I watched lay an egg this evening. After she remained in the nesting box panting for 5 minutes , I went to get her and noticed she’s still in the squat/penguin walk mode. I assume she’s not egg bound but what’s going on? Does she need help?

    Possible Gapeworm

    Wow. I am so thankful you told me about grit! They ate it like it was mealworms! And all of them stopped doing the strange neck stretch. They must have been struggling to pass food scraps all this time and I didn’t know any better 😩!! I hope they don’t have any damage from my ignorance. They do...

    You are so helpful! I’ll post a video tomorrow. I got a short one today but it doesn’t give the full effect! I don’t have grit to my knowledge! I’ll look into that!!! Thank you thank you 🙏🏻

    Possible Gapeworm

    Hey! Newbie here. I am pretty sure my girls all have Gapeworm. Not confident obviously, because I’m very new, but lots of open mouths and a gagging motion. I don’t hear them gag or cough or anything- just a strange neck crane and mouth open thing. Otherwise they are acting totally fine. Can...
