I went out to feed the chickens this morning and could hear what sounded like a trumpet from at least 5 of them as I have a flock over 90 birds. I am wondering if someone can advise me on this and also what meds do I need to get this under control.

Hello, I have a native Philippine hen over 1 year old that is having trouble standing with neck stretched out and seems disoriented. She is real wobbly when walking like she is dizzy and she just doesn`t act like herself. Anyone have any ideas what may be going on? Thanks
Hello Folks,
I just got started in the chicken raising here in The Philippines. It would be greatly appreciated if you could take a look and see if any of these chicks resemble an Easter Egger Chicken. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH.
I was wondering if there are any hatchery`s in The United States or Australia or The U.K that sell fertile chicken eggs and ship them to The Philippines? What is the procedure and the name of the hatchery`s.
