    Hen with swollen area under vent

    I noticed one of my bantam frizzle hens has a swollen rear end. The vent is clean of poo. The area feels soft when I check it, I don't think there is an egg or impaction. I brought her in and gave her a bath. I had one similar to this a few years back that ended up being a horrendous hernia and...

    1 week old chick with goopy eye

    I got chicks from Ideal a week ago and I noticed last night that one of them had a droopy looking eye. I took it out and examined it and noticed a clear goopy film over the eye and the lid, it also cannot close this eye for some reason. I used saline and cleaned around the eye, got the goop off...

    Buy premade or build??

    I'm thinking with the cost of lumber it may be close to the same to buy premade? I have my eye on this dandy little sucker, but would it be cheaper to try and build one like it myself? http://www.mypetchicken.com/catalog/Chicken-Coops/The-Saltbox-Coop-with-Run-4-chickens-p697.aspx I have...
