    What’s wrong with my hen?

    I have a 4 year old hen, whom today seemed lethargic and tired. I’ve been gone for the last few days, and only have been home since this morning. I isolated her and gave her a “911 Recover” water vitamin, and some scrambled egg, because she wasn’t interested in mealworms or food. I’m not...

    What to add to a dust bath???

    I’ve read so many different things, but what do y’all suggest? I will be adding DE but what else? What sand is best? All purpose, river, play? Which dirt is best as well? I know chickens have a fragile respiratory system so I’m hesitant to use anything ultra fine. Thanks y’all!
