    Saddle feathers not growing back

    Yes. They dust bath to help with heat/bugs and stay in shade. If you don't keep the saddles on their back will get worse.

    Rooster with broken upper beak.. will he be ok? *Pictures* warning, its a bit graphic

    I know this is old, but Thank you for posting this. The exact same brake happened with my rooster yesterday. I wasn't sure if it would grow back, but when I removed the piece sticking out he just went back to eating. So since it will grow back over time and he's eating I won't worry much.

    After they stop laying

    That is very informative. Thank you. I recently did put down one of my barred rocks. I could feel something very odd in her crop. It was gel like, it wasn't sour or hard.

    Oregano oil works for cocci and worms, it works!

    I know, I read this also. I've read a lot that said it is a good wormed. I did it 2 nights in a row. There were no worms. I know chickens have worms even if you can't see them, it's normal. I also know they only come out in the poo if there is an overload without using a wormer. So since I...

    Well honestly no worms came out. It is winter and I usually worm them in spring, but wormed them now for they were acting a little odd and I thought I saw a worm in the poo. So I tried the oregeno because I really don't like I Using commercial wormers unless necessary, but no worms came out.
