    MITES HELP!!!!

    My flock has had Northern Fowl Mites since August 2024. We had a rat issue and just finally a month ago got rid of them. With that, the rats gave my flock mites and it's been a struggle ever since. I have hosed down the coop and run, all of their stuff that they play on/ramps/etc. Everything is...

    HELP!! Chick with Wry Neck!!!!!

    I have a almost 3 week old silkie chick. She is completely upside down. I was able to dip her beak into the water and get some water in her. I also put electrolytes in her water (Save-a-chick). I don’t think she is able to eat. I seperated her in a different brooder with another chick so she’s...

    Hen face swelling!!

    Yesterday I noticed my PR hen face half of it was swelling. I left it alone bc she was eating and drinking and doing her normal routine and thought maybe it was from pecking but this morning her swelling got worse. It’s only on the one side and I don’t know what to do. The rest of my flock is fine.

    Hen can’t seem to walk right!!!!

    I woke up this morning to get the chickens ready and my PR is on the floor. I think she fell off the roosts and it might have stunned her and she hurt her leg. There’s no bedding because they have mites and I’m trying to get rid of those. I’ve been spraying and using powder stuff as well. Her...

    Dust batheing ingredients??

    My flock never used a designated area to dust bathe they just dig holes everywhere and start batheing. My question is what can I put down for them to bathe in? There run is dirt and right now I’m treating them for mites. (We have a rat that we can’t get rid of and I’m thinking that’s how they...

But she has a bunch crawling all over her and I checked the rest of the flock I noticed another hen has a couple but once...

    Bumble foot????

    I have two plymouth rocks. I have a thread on my one who’s been having many problems one includes her toes curling not her nails her entire toe curls. (Nails are cut short). Took her to the vet and doctor said she’s healthy and fine possibly just her being lazy and spoiled. My entire flock is 4...

    PR with bald butt and crooked feet

    I have a PR who has been getting crooked toes. She’s had a bald butt for a while and I always though it was from the poop build up but instead of new feathers she sometimes gets bumps like a pimple but they get big like almost a grape size. They dissapear after a little bit and she’s always been...

    Curved Toe?!?!

    My PR has a curved toe. I noticed it this morning. I know I have to cut their nails bc they are getting to long and starting to curl. Could that be the problem? Her nail on that toe isn’t too long. She’s walking fine, eating and drinking like normal. I touched it and she didn’t have a problem...

    Bumps and hens behind!!!!!

    My PR has always had trouble growing feathers on her behind. I think it’s from poop getting matted and then feathers fall out. Today I saw bumps on her skin. She’s had them before but they usually go away. Are they just feathers growing in? Other than that she eats and drinks and walks just fine.

    My roosters spurs have been getting very ling and have been bugging him when he’s trying to roost. I was going to cut them but yesterday the one spur like half of it broke off but it was the putter layer and I figured I’d let him be until today to cut it when I got home. I got home to find his...

    Hens nail long and wonky?

    I’ve never had an issue with their nails until today. Her one nail is super long and twisted. They’ve been pretty bored mostly laying around and dust bathing since it’s hot and not much they want to do. Can I use dog clippers to cut it?

    Hens not laying eggs?

    I have six hens and one rooster. He causes some feather damage to his favorite girls. That could be one reason their not laying but I’ve also been getting fairy eggs and soft eggs. They have oyester shell but they don’t seem to care for it unless I’m hand feeding it to them. I give them some of...

    Food mites?!?!

    I’ve had food mites before and we bought a freezer and keep the feed in the freezer. This morning I saw mites on the ground in the dirt crawling on wood chips. The chickens spill the feed. I moved the feed but since it’s still outside I’m going to guess the mites will get to it soon. What can I...

    Worms!? Maggots!? In poop!!!

    I noticed the poop in the beddings had these worm things in it. The poop boards as well. I’m not sure they are worms I think they came from the little gnats that have been in the poop boards. Since it’s so hot I can seem to find a way to get rid of the gnats. I use PDZ in the poop baords do you...

    Hen Belly hard and she is laying down!!!!

    I’ve noticed yesterday my one PR was laying down in the dirt but I thought it was normal because lately the flock has been laying down or dust batheing. This morning was different though, as I do the morning routine they all usually start getting up but my one PR just stayed on the roost. Her...
