    Strange pupil shape?

    Sorry to revive an older post, but I was wondering if you had an update on this hen? I have a hen I hatched out which has the exact same condition and I am really hoping it's not Mareks. Out of a flock of 50 she's the only one that has it.

    Pokeweed

    Wondering this myself as I have this plant spring up every year, I found this on the chicken dvm website. It states that all parts of the plant are toxic to poultry.

    Pullet has odd neck movement

    Did this behavior just start? Any chance you can post some pictures or a video? Edit: I had a cockerel with what sounds like a similar behavior, and I treated it with vitamin e supplements and poly-vi-sol at the advice of members on this board. The cockerels head could be okay, but could also...

    Barred Rock 4mth old - Possibke Rooster

    I can't be sure but it looks like a hen to me. I have a little barred rock I call Speeder which gradually became very squabbly over her youth. I have heard barred rocks are either the sweetest little things or an absolute menace. Speeder definitely pecks and squabbles at me non-stop. Edit: I...

    Heatstroke and after effect

    The nice thing about Nutridrench (if that's what you're referring to) is that it is designed for "instant" absorption into the bird's system. This is unlike the electrolyte powders and such which have to be absorped the old fashion way and can take many hours.

    Do I have a Pullet?

    Do I have a Pullet?

    I am by no means an expert, and haven't really dealt with copper marans, but it is very reminiscent of a black sex link hen I have. Beautiful bird!

    Heatstroke and after effect

    I agree that electrolytes are good in situations like these, but I would just make my own. Those little packets at the feed store are overpriced. I usually use this recipe. Good luck and keep us posted!
