I'm new to chickens, I've been reading these forums and others etc. but someone just told me they put tobacco leaves in their nests to kill lice and mites. Sounds crazy! Anyone else ever hear of this? I live in east tn so there's a lot of tobacco leaves around here.
She is opening and closing her mouth like she throwing up. Nothing coming out Not making any noise Now she is in her dust bath just laying there eyes closing. My 2 buffs are near her like they know something is wrong.
Chicken newbie, but wanted chickens for a long time. Started with 2 RIR's, and 2 Buffs(3 months old) a week ago. And yesterday got 5 more RIR's(5 weeks old). Am I crazy?? Glad this forum is here. Glad BYC is here!
