    Sudden Cold. How can I help my flock? One hen has a pale comb since the temp drop.

Two hens have had a pale comb since then (I will add a picture of one of them). I'm guessing it is just from the cold. Another hen I noticed was breathing...

    Making our own food, how much of each ingredient should we add for a balanced diet?

    We bought ingredients to make our own chicken feed. Looking at many sites, they all say something different so we're hoping to get advice from anyone else who makes their own feed. Btw they are also free-range and are given egg shells and table scraps. Here's what we got. 1. 25lb of black oil...

    Help! Chicken poop is red , is my flock sick?

    I came out to the chicken coop after school and saw a bright red pule of poop. It was wet so I'm guessing it's fresh and had a foul odor. I found another red dropping near our other coop. I have never seen poop like this before and we have had chickens for over a year now. There are other...

    Dogs have roundworms, should I deworm my flocks just in case?

    Our two dogs have just been diagnosed with roundworms, our 10 month old puppy has been showing symptoms for a couple of weeks. They are just starting medication for it today. I figure if my dogs have gotten worms than it's likely our chickens have it too. We have had them for a little over a...
