    This cannot be normal 😢 green poop

    She did have a juvenile moult which seemed to hit her hard and she then had hard skin deposits which grew around the base of her feathers. These were treated with an anti fungal cream & coconut oil to soften. Her face also became dry but soon was sorted. She was treated with mite powder & the...

    Conflicting info on layer pellets

I buy Robinwood brand (uk) and despite my research, I can't find the nutritional content for the brand. Where I am based, north Manchester, there isn't many feed shops local, so I have...

    Conflicting info on layer pellets

    Thank you, it seems that flock raiser (purina) isn't available in the uk, just a variety of growers. I will have to check the protein of each brand and work out which is best.

    Fairy egg at 11 months?

    I have one silkie who lays mini eggs and her sister, who is smaller, produces much bigger eggs. I suppose one small egg is just a blip.

    Dry sharp skin on chicken - pictures included

    There is nothing we have changed in her diet & the only change we have made is adding wood chippings to the run, (4-5 weeks ago) could it have perhaps be sap? None of the other girls are affected She constantly grooms her chest now and I don't think that is helping. She eats and drinks fine...
