    Hello everyone. So we got results from the lab today proving we have a coccidiosis infection in our flock. We are starting Sulfacox, taking 3 days, then 2 days off and 3 days medication. I was wondering which day should I clean and desinfect the coop? When do they stop pooping the pathogens...

    Sexing silkies

    I know it is too early but any guesses what the gender of these two silkies is (before my kids get too attached to them)? I think the brown-beige is a vockerel and the grey a pullet. The brown is bigger too. Thank you!

    I have read that the color of the marans eggs depends on what you feed them. So what to feed them to enhance the nice deep chocolate color? Thanks for advice :).

    What gender are these wheaten marans?

    Is it possible to find out if there is any pullet among these? I thought the lighter one (first pic) might be, but I am not so sure. Or is it too early? They are 5 weeks old now. Thanks a lot!
