    First death in my flock and another looking sick help!

    She passed away today. I dosed her as a ditch attempt that it wasn't coccidiosis. She was getting worse and doing the death breathing. I found tylan 50 reading through these forums and thought it might work. especially after 4 days of corid and a worsening condition. Still not sure what plagued...

    Any one want to join me in waiting for eggs, posting and comparing notes?

    My husband had buried her before I got home to save me the heartache... So it's too late to investigate. My silkie that was looking sick had improved after a couple days of pampering. Had her separated from the flock just in case it wasn't coccdiosis, but let her go back outside cause she was...

    Any one want to join me in waiting for eggs, posting and comparing notes?

    Definitely! I heard they last longer than a month in the fridge if your not washing the bloom off (some don't even refrigerate) Store bought eggs have a shelf life of 1 month because they have to be washed.

    Any one want to join me in waiting for eggs, posting and comparing notes?

    hello, I would love to join! My first 13 chickens were 20 weeks last weekend. I have a whole lot of squatting and talking. I'm nervous they won't lay in the nesting boxes because I let them free range during the day. They love to kick around the leaf piles along the wood-line. I have hay and...

    Salmon Favrelle Rooster - Chicago Illinois

    I am interested. I live in North west indiana. Bought all sexed chickens and now need a protector cause I want the girls to be able to free range on our apple orchard. When you say not overly aggressive I have children and small dogs. Do you think there will be an issue?
