    LOOKS LIKE SHE WANTED TO EXPLODE

    Hey Gang, I culled a 2 year old California White yesterday. She could not walk and her belly was so swollen it shined. She was hurting. We have 24 hens and this white looked like if you hit her with a pin she'd explode. There are no worms in their droppings and now I have another...

    Please, I really need an answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Has anyone left their chicks to pipe and then hatch an incubator at 55% humidity with much success? I have 24 hours to move them to my second incubator at 70-75% humidity and not sure if they're ready to move. (It's a staggered lockdown as not all eggs have the same lockdown date) There are...

    Has anyone left their chicks at 55% humidity during lock-down?

    Broken/sprained/tendon/hip???

    Howdy y'all, I could use some advice. About ten days ago I found one of my Buff O's sitting against the sidewall fence and not moving. When I went to get her she did not run away and I knew there was a problem. Turns out something is up with her right leg. Here's what I see after putting her...

    Bantam feet shaking - spitting up a little water

    I noticed two of my bantams feet were shaking this morning when I held them as well as when they were standing still. Yesterday I had the stomach flu and could not get outside at all to their newly heated waterer which I suspect ran dry late yesterday. (Maybe without water 12 hours) One banty...

    transferred hens won't lay

    Last week I made a swap of four roosters [that had to go] to a serious chicken rancher and in return received 4 California White (1 year old) hens. The rancher told me he was getting on average 3 eggs a day from these girls. Hours after their arrival they were making themselves available to my...
