    Salmonella

    I have 2 hens whom I thought had bumble foot. I watched several videos and bought the necessary supplies and then could not do it. I took them to a local Avian vet and while they both have swelling on their foot she said it was not bumble. More likely arthritis due to some virus... But it was...

    Too many Roosters

    Last year I got 3 chicks thinking it would be fun to raise chickens and have fresh eggs. Everything was going great until 2 of my 3 girls went broody and did not lay eggs all summer.
