Ok thanks!

Hi all. My title is pretty much my question. When taking a sample to the vet, do I collect fecal, cecal or both? I took a fecal sample for a float test and I'm wondering whether a cecal sample would show the same results, or whether the cecal together with the fecal would give the vet more...

Never mind! I called the company and found out.

Hello! Does anyone know the dosage for BOB for a single hen? Currently she's drinking out of a small chick waterer. Thanks in advance!

What is that fluffy chicken you have in your photo? It's so cute!

Ok, thanks so much for replying. I'll back off and check for results.

One of my four second year hens has been looking like she's molting for about 2 weeks. I thought/think it's odd that only one of them looked that way; I would expect all four of them to be molting. I've been discovering dampness in the same spot under the roost for about 4-5 days. Tonight I...

Thank you to all who replied to my post! :) She never had any problem with head/water thing. Her hind feathers have been clean and fluffy since I gave her a bath. Now I have another problem. One of my four second year hens has been looking like she's molting. I thought/think it's odd...

I have done that with other birds, and it seems to work fine. Forgot to mention the reason I gave her the bath is that she was sitting in the coop next to the waterer. She didn't try to run when I went to pick her up. I put her down on my lawn and she stood up a bit better and immediately...

She is an adult, about 4.5 yo. As I said, I knew I had too much water in the tubs, but did it anyway, mostly because of the temp here (I get heat exhaustion very quickly) and the fact that I have a compression fractured disc, fractured rib, torn cartilage between 4 discs...in short, I was in a...

It's hot here, and I needed to bathe a poopy-butt girl. I have bathed chickens 3 times before, but this time I had too much water in the tubs. I thought it would be ok, but she carried on so in the water that her face, eyes, and ears may have gotten wet! I checked her, and she didn't seem to...

Thank you so much!

Hey, all. I know it's probably a dumb question, but can you leave the peel (last layer) on the garlic when crushing or cutting it up to feed to chickens? That last layer is a pain in the butt to get off. TIA

I started a number of bottles of ACV to get the mother, but some of the bottles have this thick, whitish stuff in them, about an inch thick. I've been looking up photos and researching on other websites, but can't find a definitive answer. Most of the articles say "get rid of the mold," but I...

Thank you to all who responded to my question about qualms about killing quail. I appreciate your sensitivity and practical advice. Sorry it's taken me MONTHS to respond!

Thank you! Sorry for the delay...unfortunately, just when I had got a huge thriving mealie ranch (after a year!), pantry and/or dust moths infiltrated and caused some kind of disease. The mealies turned black and soft, then hard. Am restarting another ranch in another place, but I think the...

Sounds tricky! (Oops...truly, no pun intended.) Thank you for the info.

Interesting. Thanks!

Darn. Just when I thought I had the definitive answer to the the best way of euthanizing...well, I thought freezing was a good way so it's nice to have support for my position.
