Hi, you had recently replied to my post about losing my little disabled hen Lizzy. I'm still not well. I don't know how to get a grip and handle my days because I held this little girl in my arms every second of the day. I'm just lost and empty. I've been googling questions and reading stories...
It will be two weeks Sunday since I lost her and I am not handling it well at all. From 5:30 in the morning till roosting time she was in my hands being tended to or loved. Then at bedtime I slept with her every night on our loveseat in case she needed me. I don't know what to do with myself or...
Oyster shell was to big and we couldn't find a grinder powerful enough to make the oyster shell smaller. At least find one we could afford so we did some research and found that some use calcium flour. Oyster shell but in powder form. We generously sprinkled that on her food which was in like a...
The "what ifs" make it so much harder. It's been 5 days and I am still barely functioning and can't stop crying. I am so sorry for what happened to your little girl. Must have been tremendously terrible! God love her. Thank you for telling your story ❤️
I forgot to mention that she also got dried mealworms daily, grit, and calcium. We do not feed layer. Another hen we have will a lot of times lay two eggs a day if we feed layer. I'd have to check with my hubby cause I am not 100% it might be starter / grower. He always buys it and stores its it...
Egglands best crumble. We would only give a treat each day but one at a time and small amounts. When she was having breathing issues she did get hard boiled eggs often
Thank you. Her diet contained crumble feed scratch grain, mealworms, flaxseed, lettuce, carrots, hard boiled eggs, sometimes watermelon, sometimes crushed unsalted peanuts, sometime spray millet sometimes oregano mealworms. I found out it wasn't respiratory after the first eggs cause when she...
I don't think you are crazy one bit. Sometimes I feel maybe I m crazy for loving her so much! Most wonderful love in the world. So much more than a chicken and I pray to be with my baby again as well! Thank you.
Hello BYC Family. My heart has been shredded to pieces and I was hoping maybe someone could explain what happened About two years ago I got a serama peep. She seemed perfectly healthy until she started to lay eggs. Start she would favor one leg and limp till she got her egg out and then one day...
We have an almost 13 year old Japanese buff whom loves cheese. We would give her shredded cheese about once every 2 weeks but began to notice it might be causing her to have issues pooping. Since she is old we didn't want to take her favorite treat away and thought it could be the dairy. This...
Hello all 😁 I know that chickens do not handle dairy very well so I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if follow your heart brand vegan dairy free cheese would be safe to give as an occasional treat. Thank you 🐣
Hello everyone 😁 It's been three days of using b complex vitamins and I m sure it will take some time but for how many days should I give Lizzy b complex. Googled it but can't find the answer. Thank you
How long should I give her the B complex. I don't believe my last reply posted in the correct place. If it did I apologize for repeating. Thank you so very much 😊
She probably is only a pound and I believe the dropper is one ml. It is safe then? It has other ingredients I guess since it is liquid form and wasn't sure if those ingredients would be safe. Sorbitol, vegetable glycerine, citric acid, potassium sorbate preservatives natural flavors and purified...
Hello, I have a thread telling the story about my serama hen not able to walk or stand after laboring from laying an egg. I was told to use human b complex vitamin. I've tried every possible way to give it to her and somehow I can't fool her. Can't even just directly give it to her. I have...
Hello, I wanted to ask if it is alright to us nature's bounty sublingual liquid b complex. It would be much easier to use if it would be safe and just as beneficial as the capsules. Thank you all for the help. I almost forgot, how long should I give this to her and everyday?
