I found this product at my local feed store and it looks super easy and supposedly aids in Coccidossis , Blackhead, E. coli, bronchitis, avian flu and is a dewormer and destroys parasites and aids in flushing out toxins. I was wondering if anyone would not recommend me using this product...
My year old hen was limping yesterday and holding her wing out from her body on the same side. She is still eating and drinking but lethargic and laying on her eggs with her feathers puffed up. She did lay yesterday but I don’t see any wounds or swelling. Does anyone know what I could do to help...
My year old buff Orpington has a slightly swollen wing that she is holding out and is limping on the same side. I separated her and gave her vitamins but I don’t know what caused it, she hasn’t layed and is lethargic. What else do I do?
So I have 5 laying hens and 2 chicks that are around 16 weeks old. They are in separate coops for now until they catch up in size. My hens are well taken care of by me. Mealworms, daily fruit salads, and of grouse food and water sources. My 16 week olds have one food source and one water source...
Hi everyone, I have a question, My 7 month old RIR cross has a TON of feathers around her vent, and even when she poops normal feces they don’t roll out like my other chickens so I regularly have to wash her feathers around there, I was on vacation for 2 weeks and then I come back and I go to...
Hi everyone, I have a question, I have seven hens in my big backyard and I like to throw them piles of scratch but there’s a problem with that, the groups of crows like 25 to 30 are coming into my yard and eating the scratch off the ground, I am now worried the crows will give diseases to my...
Hi so I have been stressing over this for the past two months, my black Australorpis not sleeping inside of the coop I mean she sleeping inside the coop but on the outside roast not on the inside roasts like the others and all my hens I’ve noticed late afternoon and night time are itching and...
Hi so my 2 two month old chicks are in a set up in a room in my house till they can go outside. They no longer need the heat lamp so it was off but somehow they escaped the set up I had for them and had no access to food or water all night and day! They have a huge water trough and food trough...
Hello! All 5 of my hens are completely healthy but this morning I found a dead small wild bird in my yard. It’s eyes were rolled back almost like it had a seizure and fell or something. But now I am worried it had some sort of disease that will spread to my flock because they free range and go...
These are my hopefully 🤞 little girls. I was hoping you guys might have a guess on if they are pullets or roosters? They are around a month and a half old
Hi everyone. At night I go down to the coop and make sure everything is locked up for the night. And 2 nights ago I saw red mites near their water container also I do have a wooden coop. I am getting a new coop next month sometime but will they Killy chickens or make them ill? And what can I do...
I thought I would share this because I’ve heard that almost no chickens like water but I have a tub of water in my yard for them to drink out of and my Rhode Island red likes to stand in it and roll around and get all wet 😂
Early this morning somehow an old snack pack of cheese rolled into my coop well I’m guessing it rolled in because I don’t buy those so maybe an animal brought it or the wind carried it over here but the cheese looked like it was months old and it was rockhard. I didn’t see it until I went to...
I I have post about this many times I’m just so concerned, I’ve seen some people say that When a chicken limps for more than a week it will most likely limp the rest of its life I don’t want her to always be in pain, my RIR is six months old and has recently injured her leg somehow or has mareks...
So yesterday my hen developed a limp on her right leg I saw no obvious injuries so I immediately worried about Mareks disease or egg bound but she laid an egg this morning so she wasn’t egg bound and her leg limp became a little worse and then I noticed it was swelling up just above the foot it...
So my hens have been acting normal and active and drinking/eating but there is like stuff coming out of their beaks!! It’s like a liquidity/Mucous spit. My RIR I have seen do it twice and my mix bred chicken did it once. It is hot so I don’t know if that has something to do with it. Is this...
Hi everyone. I have an RIR around 7 months old and has been laying for 2 months . This morning around normal egg laying time she developed a bad limp on one leg.My daughter being the crazy chicken girl knew something was wrong and she didn’t just hurt her leg she then started researching a bunch...
This morning my chicken was totally fine then about two hours later she was limping on her left leg I didn’t think anything of it I didn’t see any obvious injuries so I figured maybe she just hurt it somehow and I was going to give it a few days then about three hours after that I looked over at...
My chicken was totally fine this morning and they usually lay about this time so I went out to go see if one was laying and they were on the other side of the yard but then I realize one of my hens was limping I examined her and I found no obvious injuries and she is acting pretty much the same...
