    Hen with eye half closed/same side weak/trouble walking

I've been keeping an eye on it and rinsing it, figuring she'd just gotten something in it. The other day she was looking really bad, so I brought her in, gave her a good bath and kept...

    Alfalfa Pellets?

    Has anyone tried alfalfa pellets with their flock? It's only $11.99 for a 50 lb bag at the store, and I thought it might be a nice green stuff winter supplement but I hate to buy a huge bag if they might turn their beak up at them. Although, I'm pretty sure our goats wouldn't........

    Three eggbound????????????

    I found a very thin broken shelled egg in a nest box the other morning, couldn't figure it out. Finally put the puzzle together and it's my Red Star having issues. She layed a HUGE thin shelled egg last week, then nothing, didn't think much since she's never been a great layer. This morning...

    I'm going to give the duct tape saddle a try tonight for my EE Noisy that has a bare back, she was going through a BAD molt when I got her, and most of her feathers are back, but the base of her tail is still bare and red, I think she's getting pecked. Should I put any cream like cortisone...

    Do I need to rename Opal?

    I have a lovely little EE that was sold to me as a pullet three weeks ago, and was told was 2 to 3 months old at the time. Saw the same seller post up again this week that they were 4 and 1/2 months. Hummm, how time flies! Anyhow, I'm not convinced that little Opal is a pullet. That comb...
