Just this week i have had a chicken and a chick die. The chicken was 1yr 2 months, the chick was only 3 months old. Last night when i went to lock up the chickens, i noticed the hen sitting in her nesting box and had her head resting on the ledge. I woke her up and she seemed fine just sleepy...
This year's weather has been quite crazy! We first had an extended winter and very cold temps (hens had to be cooped up for 1-2 months longer than normal). Now we have had excessive amounts of moisture, and when I say excessive I mean excessive. We have had so much moisture no crops could be...
What caused this!! how should i treat it!? could this be from a virus or parasite? the hen is a year old but i have 7 week old chicks and one almost has no feathers on its back. It is very wet her now if that could have anything to do with it. I did spread some sevin around today. Please help me!
I entered into this because I am experiencing a problem, two of my chick that are 6 weeks old. I have noticed that two of the chicks have almost no feathers under their wings!? Why is this!?
