    Look for mold. Look under anything that touches the ground. Is the feed moldy? Inside coop?

    Sick Chicken- PLEASE help

    I would keep him separate until he's better, or in case you lose him. Really impossible to give you the chances of each outcome. However, I would treat naturally under most, if not all, circumstances and let what will happen happen.

    Help! Egg bound hen!

    I would get the egg out. There's plenty of info online on how to do it... If she doesn't make it at least your tried. Can't see not trying at least if she is really suffering for so long.

    Vaccinating my 10 week old chickens for Mareks and need advice on correct syringe/needle gauge size

    I just ordered from Ideal Poultry, and they even had a little message that said if you have a small flock they do not recommend vaccinating. Side note- have you read the PBS article about the Marek's vaccine? Not worth it. Vaccines are not improving health or ensuring it either. Good luck though.

    Meyer Hatchery Chicken pics anyone??

    Can anyone help me identify my meal maker? I ordered 4 other chicks, all females. A sultan, gold lace polish, buff lace polish, and silver lace polish. The meal maker is different for sure, clean legs but same color as the sultan and buff polish chicks.

    Which hen laid these eggs?

    Soooo... I'm 99.9999999% sure that the Welsummer is the one laying the light brown eggs. I watched them like a hawk yesterday and today. There are 3 pullets showing interest in the boxes and whining incessantly. A huge EE, an Ancona, and the tiny Welsummer. The welsummer has been the one in the...
