    Can a mother hen eat medicated food?

    Ah, interesting, I’ve kept chickens all my life but never given it much thought up until now when I have a broody candidate with only medicated on hand! I usually use unmedicated and will continue too for broody hens and chicks- which is what I initially came here to check. But I’ve found myself...

    Can a mother hen eat medicated food?

    what’s the reason you don’t medicate from food or via injection… or at all? Do you all find coccidiosis doesn’t build up with the right care? Only I might start buying the unmedicated, lots cheaper but can be tricky to get hold of here in the uk

So I intend to give her the chicks when they hatch, I’ve already gotten the medicated food for them- my question is, is can the mother hen eat it as well? I intend to split the...

    One of my older hens, Pumpkin She’s a pekin bantam that is the best mother of all time, she successfully hatched & raised 21 chicks last year- and then she hatched more later in the year!!

    Head injury

    What do you think of my Serama Boy?

    Thank You so much!! Do you think he’ll be ok for my breeding program? He’s somewhere around 20 weeks old so - still a way to go.. I must admit they’re not the best photos of him as he was just starting to “deflate” out of his pose- aka I was late getting my phone!! 😂 greatly appreciated...
