    We put some of this on the side of the garage that the chickens were pecking at. Given the age of our house, the paint is lead based. We have since had the house and garage painted. They've stopped pecking since there isn't any loose.

    Incubated chicks don't have mother hen to show them the ropes, so one has to introduce them to the food and water. This is done by putting their faces in it. There are gentler ways of making sure a weak chick is hydrated, but if one has as many chicks as a commercial hatchery does, one doesn't...

    not eating, REALLY smelly vent, not active, nothing in crop... not sure how to treat.

    Blu-Kote is also fungicidal. The blue color also hides the redness, so the other chickens don't peck at her poor rear end.

    Chicken Coop "Must Haves"

    The easier it is to clean, the more likely you are to do it. I put my prebuilt coop up on cement blocks so I could put a bin under the clean out door, so I can just rake the litter into it. This is my coop. I added a nest box for extra space. I find young birds like to sleep in the nest box...

    Chicken Coop "Must Haves"

    Ventilation is a must have. my premade coop had half a dozen holes in the front. I used a 7/8 drill bit to add a double row at the top in the front and back. I used corks to close three of the holes it came with because they were too low. The ventilation should be high enough that there aren't...
