    UPDATE: Bickwinn (splash Australorp) and Mollance (Blue Australorp) seem better. Eating steadily, drinking, gaining weight. They have been quarantined inside. They have had 7 days of coccivet and are now on anti biotics to clear up any static infections. My only concern is there is still...

    Coccidiosis, need clarity and help.

(I called 4 different vets). I got coccivet, with it's active ingredient is amprolium. I'm crossing my fingers the...

    Chickens wing feathers falling out

    My 11 week old pullet Saturn HamFatter has lost a primary wing feather. Today I noticed another one looks like it's about to drop. Is this normal? She is not being picked on and shows no other signs of I'll health. Thanks.

    Three-week old chick tid-bitting. Common or unusual?

    So perhaps Butter Grumbles is just sharing. You did chick tidbit experiments in your kitchen Centrarchid, that would have been adorable to watch! Great info.

    HELP, baby chicken won't stop distressed chirping!!!!

    *update* Saturn is doing great. Thinking Pullet as she is almost 10 weeks, squats and doesn't have red on her face. She is such a little greedy guzzler. She sits on my lap like a dog and watches me when ever I eat demanding food. And she lets out a disappointment whistle when ever the treats...
