    Single swollen leg (lower shank), head shaking, pale comb

    Merry Christmas!🎄 Well I had her on the Enrofloxacin for 9 days. It made no difference, and now not only are her ankles swollen, her “knee” joints are also. I’m now trying tart cherry extract - maybe it’s gout?? I don’t know what else to do. How is yours?

    Only two hens left, bully behavior, what would you do?

    Just a thought from my experience….I had 6 welsummers as a flock, and I got so tired of trying to stare at the comb differences to figure out who was who, or the subtle color differences or size differences, that I now get a different breed for each chicken so I can immediately know who is who...

    why are my chickens not laying eggs

    I have a 3 yr old speckled Sussex hen with the same swollen ankle condition. Both her ankles are affected. I am assuming MS. I just ordered Enrofloxacin 10% pills for her. (I don’t know how much to give tho.).

    Late molt

    I have one that is all pin feathers on her legs and belly, with very few feathers on her upper parts. It was 3° F this morning. I wasn’t worried about her at 20° F, but getting close to 0° F concerned me. So she is in a shed we heat to 50°. I’ll move her back out after she grows some...

    Arlo security camera Black Friday sale

    It depends on how often they run, of course. But for me, maybe a month or two. We have a spare battery so I just swap them out, but charging them does not take long-a couple hours at most.

    Young Mille fleur d’uccles stopped layigg N for two months.

    I don’t know if this information helps you, but I have two Millie Fleur D’uccle hatched in March of this year. Both started laying in August-one continues to lay regularly, the other stopped laying and is molting some. I figure the molting one will start laying when the days get longer again.
