    Scaly leg on Christmas Eve....I feel for them.

    Vas"" did not work for me. My fastest cure was painting their legs with cooking oil.

    Lethargic hen

    My chickens will turn on a member if the flock if they are sick. It's more of a survival thing. They try and ward off or even kill the sick chicken so the rest of the flock isn't at risk of getting it too. My chicken was like this and it died. Happened to another and she lived... Just low immune...

    Help sick Chook - very pale comb and keep closing eyes and laying down

    Pale comb is from dehydration. Make sure she drinks lots, and keeps eating. Shutting her eyes means shes in pain. How is her breathing? Her poop? is her tail up or down. Runny nose? with these i can help you further.

    not sure if leghorn is sick

    My guess is she is molting. when a bird molts the feathers fall out, like our teeth being pushed out by new ones. Then you will see the stem of the feather... slowely the feathery part will grow from the stem. some birds will molt a little bit before a year. Not usually a full molt, but they...

    Bloody Combs?

    most likely another chicken... once chickens see blood its trouble. if your chicken gets a cut, they will turn into canibals and eat the bloody bird. Could have been another chicken, but with the blood they peck more often... I would clean the blood off and put some... vasaline on it to help it...

    It's kind if like us taking vitamins... I can't ever remember everyday... I just add it every now and then to give them a boost. Wouldn't recommend having them on it the whole time though :)
