    Opinions on my last hen

    Thank you. I'm very attached to her and I think at this point I will keep her and maybe get a few more in the spring. Just giving her as much attention as possible. ♥️

    Opinions on my last hen

    Do you think this would be the original issue if introducing one hen though...the one hen being her? Or is it different if it's on her turf?

    Opinions on my last hen

    Thank you. I am definitely watching her and so far she's doing great. Anyone that I have been talking to I've been letting them know that I did lose my other girl to a respiratory virus. I would never want anyone's flock to get sick. Can chickens be a carrier without being sick? She seems fine...

    Opinions on my last hen

    Thank you for all your responses. I may try a sanctuary. I love her so much and would keep her as a house chicken in a heartbeat but I don't think my husband would go for it. Plus we have a dachshund. They have VERY high prey drive.

    Opinions on my last hen

    I have one hen left and at this time I am not getting more chickens. I have reached out to try to re-home her but everyone says it's really hard to introduce just one hen into an existing flock and she will never be accepted and probably picked on. Do I keep trying or just keep her as my only...

    Broad Spectrum Antibiotic

    Thanks guys. I only have one left. If she doesn't get whatever Clarabelle had I will try to re-home her. She's very social and will get very lonely.

    Broad Spectrum Antibiotic

    Hi thanks for checking in. You're very sweet. She passed this morning. I thought she was making a turn for the better Sunday morning and looked so much better yesterday but this morning it was clear she was dying. I just kept her comfortable until she passed. I think she had a seizure or...

    Broad Spectrum Antibiotic

    So I did supportive care last night... electrolytes in water with a medicine dropper...mashed food with water. She was almost dying in my arms...eyes closed, beak open, wheezing. She did eat a little on her own. This morning she seems a little better. She is still puffy but not panting. Eating...

    Broad Spectrum Antibiotic

    I brought her inside yesterday. She didn't look great yesterday. Was drinking by medicine dropper and eating a little on her own. Her breathing is very labored. I'm going to see if the feed store has anything but I can't inject anything myself. I'm not comfortable with that.

    Broad Spectrum Antibiotic

    Is there a broad spectrum antibiotic I can treat my flock with? One of my girls has been sneezing and is a bit puffy with some labored breathing. No discharge from ears etc. Just want to nip anything in the bud. Something I can put in the water. I read tetracycline?

    A yolk laid?

    One of my girls... I only have two...laid a yolk only this morning. I will add two things. They are just coming off a long, hard molt up here in Massachusetts. I've only seen two eggs so far in the past week and don't know who they were from. Not sure if one hen is laid both eggs or they are...
