    reopening wound on toe

    A few weeks ago I cut my hens toe nail, it was really long but I cut way to far down. I used blood clotting on it then and after a day it appeared like it would be fine. Today I noticed dry blood on the roost and found out that her nail was bleeding again, it also looked a little...

    To feed or not to feed corn, that is the question.

    Up till today I thought this was a no brainier. However I was asking advice from a place that sells some of the best eggs I have ever had and they said that they don't give corn to the chickens because it makes them lay less often. So I thought I would see everyone's opinion on the matter. Do...
