    Northern Fowl Mites and Eprinex

    I've been battling mites for a while now. I'm pretty sure they're Northern Fowl mites since they stay on my poor kiddos during the day. They will move from the chickens to me when my sweeties sit on my shoulders and lap. I'm treating their house with permethrin (spray and powder) and them...

    Roosters and non-laying hens

    I've had chickens for about ten years, but I'm not very experienced in terms of roosters. I've only had a few, and I owned them for several months or less before finding them a new home (not for soup).

    What the hell is going on with my Silver Sebright?

    I've had my Silver Sebright hen (Silvette) for seven years or so. She used to look completely normal. For the last year, she has started growing strange new neck feathers that make her look very spikey when she fluffs them out. She's lost some tail feathers and lots of breast and wing...
