    Sour Crop Making Hen Really Weak

    My 3 year old hen has been lethargic for a couple days. We put apple cider vinegar in the water but she isn't eating much or drinking and can barely keep her eyes open now. We've been massaging her very squishy crop and brought her inside to isolate her and keep her warm but I'm not sure what...

    Bumble Foot or Roost Sores? With pics

    My sweet little Cochin appears to have bumble Foot, just wanting to get a third party opinion if that's what it looks like, or if it Roost sores. One foot it looks like she has three scabs and on the other foot just one. I've started to treat it with TricideNeo powder soaks. Thanks in advance.

    Worming the Chicks

    I have read a million different opinions about wormimg chickens, and I am stumped about what I should do. This is my first flock, and they're almost 16 weeks old.

    Really Tiny Chick??

    We have a tiny black sex link and we've been worried about her. We got her and 14 other chicks about 6 days ago and she is so much smaller than the others. She doesn't have nearly as much energy or eat/drink as much as the others. Sometimes she will just hang out in the corner by herself. As of...
