    Help protecting my flock (Mareks, Leuokosis)

    I posted a thread last week on my Easter Egger hen Arthur who we thought had an eye infection, unfortunately we were wrong. Within four days she was completely paralyzed. We took her to an avian vet and had to have her euthanized, they sent her off for a necropsy. The necropsy pointed towards...

    Swollen eye(s), eyes cloudy and lethargic

    My year old Easter Egger hen Arthur suddenly got ill, suddenly as in the past two days. We knew she had bumblefoot and I ordered a treatment kit I was just waiting for it to arrive when probably the day before yesterday she was kind of closing one eye and wouldn't free range she just stayed...

    Weird egg??

    I literally just found this in my chicken run in a pile of poop next to my Easter Eggers, what is it??? I've seen jelly eggs before and fairy eggs and I know what a lash egg is (never had one thankfully) but what is this thing??? It looks like an egg yolk but it was almost rubbery? I'm like 80%...

    Rooster died over night

    I genuinely can't figure out what is going on with my chickens or if maybe there is multiple things going on but I've been throwing everything at the wall I can think of. I now suspect gapeworm and ordered medication for it that will be here Saturday but I was curious about other people's...

    Deep litter method and freezing temps

    I'm in the Midwest and we just made it through a nasty blizzard but the Temps are still crazy low, it's -14 right now with a real feel of -29. I've been super worried about the girls but they seem to be hanging in there ok. We use deep litter method and I heard it adds a little warmth in the...

    Constipated? (picture is kind of graphic proceed with caution)

    This summer has been one illness/injury after another for my girls and even though fall is coming its apparently not over yet, we auctioned our aggressive rooster for tormenting our girls and then spent months eliminating a depluming mite infestation and as far as I can tell they are gone for...

    Unknown illness?

    I'm sorry in advance for the long post but I wanted to give as much information as possible! I just treated my chickens with topical ivermectin the night before last but today my favorite chicken is doing very poorly, she's laying around with her head pulled in and her eyes closed. She will...

    Egg withdrawl and topical ivermectin

    I just treated my girls topically for depluming mites with ivermectin and feel terrible about wasting eggs, could I feed the eggs back to the girls or would that be like giving them a double dose and cause problems? I'm on an autoimmune protocol with my diet and potential negative consequences...
