    Guys, guess what? Mary was up fairly early this morning. She was very noisy and making lots of sounds, some sounded like she was crying and she was pacing alot. She ended up tipping over her water, AGAIN! (ugh) So, I was trying to clean around her, and she tried to keep getting out. She...

    I got the girls some duramycin (sp?) today, and I mixed it up with their water. I thought I read somewhere that I shouldn't give them any dairy while they are on the antibiotic. Is that true? If not, do I have to worry about the antibiotic messing with their stomachs? Also, how long do I...

    question about injured hen!

    Wow- okay. So, six weeks? How soon was she up and moving around? Lucky and Mary both are becoming quite active and vocal, but their wounds are still quite open. I didn't realize they may be inside that long... I may move them in to our basement... I read on one of these posts to clean their...

    Hey chixmaidservice, they're hanging in there. They're both eating and drinking; I can tell they're getting antsy though. They're both pacing quite a bit and making a lot of clucking sounds. Some even sound like they're crying! I didn't put neosporin on them today just the blue kote. Their...

    question about injured hen!

    So far, I've been putting the blue kote on their wounds and neosporin for the last two days. I have them in my dining room. They are both eating and pooping- a lot. Mary has quit laying, but I figured that's pretty normal, right? However, the last two days they have been making lots of...

    question about injured hen!

    I'm so happy to hear this. All five of my hens were attached last night by a neighbor's dog, two of them were killed, and two are badly injured. I'm curious, did you give your Eggster any antibiotics? I flushed their wounds with diluted peroxide and I sprayed them with the blue kote. I also...

    Can I get the antibiotic from tractor supply, or do I need to take her (them) to the vet? They both have a puncture wound.

    Thank you everyone; it's been a pretty hectic and crazy day. We put blue kote on Lucky, and she's been eating and drinking some. But she's mainly sleeping. Interestingly enough, one of our other girls showed up down at the coop this afternoon. I'm just amazed; my husband and I saw what we...

    emergency help please !

    Thanks everyone... we've put the blue kote on Lucky, and she's eating and drinking. But she's mainly laying down and sleeping. I'm worried because she hasn't pooped at all since she's been in. Awesomely enough, another chicken showed up this afternoon with a pretty bad puncture wound, but we...

    I don't know why I'm posting because there is really nothing else left to say. Within two hours, a neighbor's dog killed all five of my hens. My kids and I are heartbroken. I had no idea something like this could happen so fast, and in this way. There is no trace of one of my hens, and I'd...
