Ahhh, bummer that stinks. Well, thanks for your time, I'll post if I come up with anything.

Spoiler alert! No, the Forco did not keep working. I haven't used it in years.

It’s funny you mention the probiotics. I had her on them at one point and they helped clear up some digestive and skin issues. She’s undoubtedly been on numerous antibiotics due to chronic ear infections (it’s why she was surrendered to an animal shelter per her paperwork) and shortly after...

...time they will have a dog that has a compulsive need to eat poop. They solved the problem by feeding their dogs a probiotic supplement called Forco. It began decades ago as a horse supplement, and now they have it for dogs and even chickens. Google it. You will be able to locate a dealer...

Thanks so much! You’ve given me lots of great information, and I’ll definitely read the thread you linked. We have the 14 birds in a 150 sq ft run and their coop is also 150 sq ft. The inside if the coop has a brooder space, as does the run. We have a log for them to hop onto and loads of...

...We all had tried many things only to discover that most didn't work and the ones that did, had limited success. (Before you run and order Forco, read more of the thread. It didn't work.) Now the way I deal with feather picking is one-on-one discipline. I poke the bad girl on the back when I...

Thank you. Ordered so far: pinless peepers, Forco, getting cat food tomorrow. Thought the dry would be okay but I'm getting cans. The only reason they're not still on flock raiser: I'm in the middle of nowhere and it's hard to find here! Same with chick starter; have to drive 40 min. for that...

...Years ago, I had a serial feather picker, an EE hen called Flo. I tried everything, and one day I stumbled onto a nutritional supplement called Forco, and I thought I had discovered a miracle. It seemed to be working. I was so entusiastic, I started a thread...

...me sad she can't sleep w her friends. Other than her missing feathers, they all seem to get along fine. I did some digging and stumbled upon Forco. But it is quite expensive and I am not sure I want to invest in 5pounds of it. Curious if anyone has some they would like to sell? Or if anyone...

...behavior, and probably set her up for gout arthritis as she grew older. At one point some friends who had poop eating dogs recommended Forco, a pre-biotic supplement for horses, dogs and poultry. It was pricey stuff, but I felt it was worth it if it worked. Flo was not just a feather...

@azygous was she picking her own feathers, or the other chick's feathers? Mine is picking at the other ones, so I don't know if this would work or not? TIA

Hi, I was reading your post about using FORCO for your plucking hens.... I'm curious as to whether you found any problems with your birds after using it. OR if it is the cure all it sounds like? I have 70 hens and one of the coops is nearly all bald and they will not stop plucking each other or...

If you're fermenting your feed, it has everything Forco has, so you really don't need it. Feather picking has so many different causes, all you can do it keep trying things until you manage to get your problem under control. Recently, I had a baby chick who was feather picking like a tiny...

...organic feed have any animal protein in it? Maybe give them some raw hamburger a few times a week and see if that helps. I haven't used the forco so I have no answers for you there but whatever the problem is, I wouldn't wait. It doesn't take long for them to become firmly entrenched in...

...of posts and couldn't read anymore. I have some peckers in my flock (I would call them worse but I'm trying to be a lady) and I'm wondering if Forco is what I need to try. Brief backstory: 28 pullets of various breeds all from McMurray, age 9 weeks. 12x16 coop, over 30' of roost space (they...
