    Lice eggs

    I treated my small flock with elector psp 2 weeks ago for lice but some still have grey eggs attached to their vent feathers. Do I need to treat again? Are these going to hatch and start all over again? The coop was cleaned and sprayed as well.

    Feeding chicks and hens same food

    My flock is all on non-medicated chick feed due to two baby chicks hatching. Could this be a reason that a few hens seem to have poopy butts? I’m tired of washing chickens butts. Should I try a probiotic?

    Poopy butt

    I have a hen with a reoccurring poopy end. I clean and trim the feathers. She seams ok for a while then it comes back. One time it looked a little prolapsed but I did push back in. I have treated the flock with corrid to be safe. What else can try?

    Nesting boxes

    I currently have plastic nesting boxes but thinking of switching to a 4 hole galvanized steel one to create more space. Anyone know how these are in the cold winters? Will that bother the hens?

    Poopy butt

    I have a 1.5 year old hen that always has a poopy butt. I’ve washed her off and don’t see any mites or eggs. Skin looks fine. Tried electrolytes, Corid. She’s lost a few feathers but otherwise seems normal. Any advise? None of my other hens are having problems.

    What is going on?

    Any ideas of what this is from? I don’t see any mites or lice in her. Is she being pecked on? I used some spray to help it. Doesn’t seem to be working. The hen next to her has a small spot too. My other 7 hens are fine.
