    Doughy crop, cocci

    I have a girl who is 1 1/2 years old. We went to the vet on Wednesday because of rapid weight loss and loose stool, even though I had already treated with Corid. She had a resistant coccidiosis strain, and the vet treated her with an alternate medication. No worms. No other bacterial issues...

    7 week pullet lethargic/withdrawn

    Ducky was fine two days ago. Yesterday I noticed she was not as eager to investigate, and today I noticed she is ruffled out and tucking her head back onto her shoulders.

    Monster egg from new layer.

    My Sapphire gem laid this egg today. It’s probably her second or third egg she’s laid, and man, it’s huge compared to my other girls. The top end is very wrinkled. Any need for concern? I’m a new chicken keeper. I can’t believe she laid it. I kept asking her if she was ok after passing that.

    Have a look, if you don’t mind.

    Good evening from TN, all. A week ago we became the owners of a few hens. Now, this all came about by falling into my lap. I’d been considering chickens for some time and was drafting a 10 page proposal to my husband to sell him on the idea outlining costs, benefits, drawbacks, etc. (When I “do...

    New. Totally New

    Hello everybody. My name is Kat 1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? We are brand spankin new to all of this! I’ve wanted chickens since I was about 8, and my gracious husband made it happen for me and my babies. I have a friend who has a flock of thirty, and she...
