    Vent and Crop help

    It might be impacted. How does it feel? Like squishy or like there's a golf ball in there? Probiotics would help more if it was sour crop and the runny poop issue, but impacted crop has a bit different treatment. Here are two of the best articles about crops. It'll help you figure out more...

    What's the temperature where you are???

    It was a balmy 31°F today. Low 24°F. Wind was low, humidity high, still very nice!

    What's the temperature where you are???

    We just planted goji berry plants last spring. They grew well and are mulched for winter. I'm hoping they come back. We'd never heard of them before, but got them from family in MN. They were growing them for something to do with cancer, not sure if it helps prevent it or helps if you have...

    Bachelor pad too small for 3 roos?

    I looked at it. They say it holds 6 chickens so that means it holds 3. It should be okay as far as not cramping them too much.

    Best feed for old non egg laying chickens?

    During the summer, they all have access to my flower beds or dirt somewhere around here. In the winter, it's frozen, so we have about 8 giant kitty litter boxes. Hubby gets dirt from the garden ahead of time and stores it in the coop that doesn't freeze. He fills each one about half full of...

    Best feed for old non egg laying chickens?

    Some "experts" will say treats shouldn't be more than 15% of their diet. In our case with silkies, that's too many vitamins and nutrients they aren't getting if that was daily, so we'll do scratch or scrambled eggs every other day. Our "scratch" is actually a layer feed, Kalmbach's Henhouse...

    Best feed for old non egg laying chickens?

    We raise and breed silkies and also have three ducks and everybody gets Kalmbach's Flock Maker crumbles. We get it from Chewy as it's not sold in stores around here. I've noted they have an organic version, but I don't buy it as farmers' crops surround us, so it's pointless. That is higher...

    paint genetics?

    Chocolate paints work similar as B&W paints, if you already have chocolate paints. Chocolate paints put together would produce about 50% chocolate paints, 25% whites, and 25% chocolate. Putting a dominant white silkie hen with a black silkie rooster produces 100% B&W paints. I haven't done...
