Hello everyone! After a dog attack that left 3 birds dead, my living birds don’t look their best. Their feet are swollen and I think they have scaly mites/mites. Can I put dish soap to kill the mites while I soak them? I’ve cleaned out my coop and have given two different types of mite...
I noticed that my flock of 22 has been looking pretty rough. Checked a handful of them and sure enough, they have mites. Their coop floor is dirt and is pretty dry most of the time. Do I need to clean out all of the loose dirt and treat the entire coop?
Hello! I’m having some trouble in knowing if these guys are roosters. I know for a fact that the brown one (his name is beep) is a rooster. Can anyone help me identify the gender of my other selkie? (The white ones name is bilbo) thanks in advance
I have a two month old chick that just died. I noticed them at its crop felt like it was full of just liquid. I put pressure on the crop (while dead) and a fowl clear liquid came out. I’m guessing it drank too much water? Help?
It’s been decently hot here in Missouri and this has been going on for maybe a week(ish maybe?) they have a constant supply of water and almost all of their coop is shade and super well ventilated. Why is she panting?
Hey!! I have a BUNCH of 1 month old chicks and I have no clue on how to sex them. I’ve tried to looking on Google but that wasn’t helpful :/ I would usually wait untill they are like 2-3 months old but I have too many and I’m trying to sell a majority of them! Help would be appreciated!!
Sadly I must announce that my dear rooster Bruno was killed due to dog attack. He was a very loving and sweet rooster. He never hurt anyone. It’s always hard seeing a bird that you hatched yourself die right in front of you. R.I.P Bruno April 8th, 2022- February 18th, 2023.
My Rooster has just been attacked by a dog about an hour ago. Right now he isn’t conscious and is shaking. I have him under a heat lamp to keep him warm and his breathing is short little gasps. What do I do?
Hello! I am a high school student that chose to raise chickens for my agricultural science class. I currently have six jersey giants I hatched myself in April. Before getting these birds, I knew nothing about chickens. I loaded myself with hours of research and felt confident enough to raise...
