    Diarrhea after food change ?

    Thank you for replying. I don’t have a pic but I found one on Google that closely resembles it. No weird colouring. No mucus. No blood. I am seeing some loose stool under the roost and cleaning it up daily so they don’t all step in it. The bedding is soaking up the water in it. She doesn’t seem...

    Diarrhea

    Jumping in on this thread. I had to do an abrupt change to my chickens feed from grower to layer. This was almost three weeks ago. I have a small flock of three (I’m in town). Two are fine. One is having watery poop like this for almost three weeks now. I’m doing electrolytes and even tried a...

    Diarrhea after food change ?

    Hi there. My girls are just about 22 weeks now. One is barnyard mix, BLW and barred rock. It’s the barnyard mix that’s having the GI issues. I ran out of grower before I could switch them to layer feed. So I had to do the switch abruptly. I will say they have had perfect poops before this. It’s...

    New to backyard chickens! I need help!

    I am in Southern Ontario and with our weather here in Canada I highly recommend a covered run - you don't want to be shoveling out snow during the winter. I used metal roofing panels. Plastic will work too. Hardware cloth all walls and floor so you don't have any predators breaking in. I use...

    Anyone use a puppy pen as a brooder?

    I’m wondering how long you kept them in here for. Was it good for their teenage weeks ? Week 3-6?

    Bumblefoot healing

    Hey guys! So I have a question about bumblefoot - I originally treated it about 6 weeks ago (dug out the infection, foot soak, polysporin, wrapped the foot for a week etc). Two of my girls had it on both feet. Their feet no longer seem red or swollen, but the scabs are there on 3 of the 4 feet I...

    Ok I found this powder. Do I put it directly on the birds or do I just put in the coop etc? 😊

    Just some reassurance ...... or not ....

    Thanks so much!! I’ll see what I can find in Canada. We are pretty limited though which makes it difficult.

    Just some reassurance ...... or not ....

    Hi there - I have one hen that has bascially been without feathers for the past 4 months. It was feather picking. I took care of all the things that could be causing it and rehomed the main culprit but I think it’s just a behaviour they’ve now picked up. Anyway. My husband was cleaning their...

    Mareks vaccine in CANADA?

    Ya same - I also read that you can get it at the feed stores in the US. So much easier ! Its definitely frustrating when you’re trying to do the right thing and vaccinate but it’s like jumping through fire hoops lol. I’m trying to get people to give me the down low on how they got the vaccine...

    Mareks vaccine in CANADA?

    That’s basically where I ended up. I found someone to source the vaccine but they don’t have the equipment to keep it longer than like 5 hours. All the vets here don’t have the equipment to keep it either. I got the ILT and Newcastle / bronchitis vaccines from the poultry vet here. But no...

    Vaccinations- Canada

    I’m currently looking for the same information. The majority of people on here are from the US and it’s so much easier to find that stuff down there.
