I have noticed that my hen has not had her usual egg in her place for about the past 4 days. I just thought that she might not be laying or that she had laid somewhere else as she has been known to do before. But tonight when they started to go up for bedtime, I noticed that her rear was messy...
My rooster got beat up by another of my roosters a couple of days ago. I treated his wounds which are pretty bad, but he is hanging on, and I treated them with Betadine/water and then Neosporin on them. I fear that he will loose one of his eyes. I have been giving him Asprin in some high protein...
My rooster has a bad infestation of what I think are lice, may be mites. I have gotten some Epernix and have successfully put it on my geese for treatment of lice and appears to have worked. They say it kills parasites and worms. I put 10 drops on my goose. How many should I put on my rooster...
Need to give a Penicillin shot and on the bottle it says that it is supposed to be room temperature. Is that imperative? I've had it in the fridge because I was told that you have to keep it in the fridge, now it's cold, and I need to go ahead and give the shot really soon. I have it beside a...
The Penicillin bottle says it's supposed to be room temperature. I've had it in the fridge so it's cold. Is it imperative that the medicine be room temperature or can it be cold or cool? Going to have to give it soon. Trying to heat it up a bit beside the heat lamp I have on my baby chicks. Need...
About a week ago, my youngest gander Henry, started acting lethargic and just standing or sleeping. He is still eating but his neck feathers are fluffed up and he just acts like he's feeling poorly. I was advised to worm him. I tried to get him to eat some lettuce with some Valbazen on it since...
Someone said to get vitamin K1, so I called the tractor supply to see if they had some, but they want to know what is the ingredient in it that counteracts the poison, said they didn't know anything about vitamin K1. Is there something else it is called? Need to know soon what I need to get so I...
I don't know what could be wrong with her unless she's egg bound or something like that. She was fine when I put her in her pen today at around 4:00pm. She didn't lay an egg today, and she usually does every day, there have been a few times that there wasn't an egg in there, but she usually free...
My hen has been attacked, and her feathers are gone from a place on her side, and there is a wound with the meat showing. Not all the way to the bone, and may be able to survive it. The wound is about the size of a 3' x 3" area where there has been some skin pulled away. How can I treat it and...
I have been treating my cockerel and pullets with ACV 4 Tablespoons per gallon water, in their water now for about 2 weeks. They have it everyday. Now the partial necropsy report said the pullets have several kinds of worms, and Coccidiosis and may have Mareks or Lymphoma, don't know which yet...

Does anyone know if I can use "Frontline Plus for dogs or puppies 8 wks or older up to 22 lbs" it's what the label says. I've got it for my 1/2 Fhist/ 1/2 Jack Russel Terrier dogs, but I read someplace that you can use on chickens, but I don't know where to apply on chicken or if it would be too...
Aprox. 5 days ago, my husband had a friend bring us some new young chickens, were all supposed to be female brown egg layers. The chickens are white, some with black specks. Don't know if that matters. I put them in a pen alone. Our other chickens free range they are brown banthams. I noticed...
