I got my firt egg!!!!!!! About half the size and light Brown. Today got another slightly bigger but slightly a different shade. Was it the same hen? The first egg was a hen named Rocky but we do not know about todays.
1st egg yay I got it yesterday and it was super small lol so cute and today we got another we know who they are from Rocky yes a hen but not sure about todays it was slighty bigger and a slightly different color do you thing it was both the same hen or no?
Ok so you may have lost some because of heat. Not cold but warm. What heat lamps are they? What watt? Are the chicks huddled under the lamp, walking around, or by the corners and edges spread out?
Not sure what to do for her. She has been indoors for 2 days now and the limping is the same. We gave her half a baby asprin and that helped for a little bit but not for over 3 hours. We have given her 2 baths with Epesom Salt in it and she liked those but not sure what to do. Any Advice...
Her name is nugget and she keeps scratching her ear and her toe is bleeding. We cleaned the blood and it stopped but she keeps scratching. The others do not mind and I do not see and lice or mites but not sure what to do! Any help appreciated!
Thanks!
So a few days ago we got 2 week old chicks (7 of them) and have fed them starter feed/chick feed (always with them and availible) and have also given them some hay and some lettuce and they ate it. We did not give them grit.
Are they ok?
Is there grit in their food?
We are going to give them...
At the feed store the woman said we should use non-medicated feed. The chicks are not vaccinated. Will they be ok? We already bought the feed. Please help me understand this better! Thanks!
