We recently bought 13 chickens and I noticed one of the little ones (not sure what type, maybe old english bantam?) had a droopy wing. It wasn't apparent when we first got her, but in the last few weeks it has gotten to the point where it get in the way of her walking. I brought her in the house...

The thing is, I haven't had anything to put him in to separate him from the rest of the chickens until today, so he's been with the rest of them since this started. None of the others have shown any symptoms - does that mean it's not coryza because it hasn't spread, or does coryza just take a...

My coop is a repurposed shed. It's completely made out of wood. I lay a three inch deep layer of wood shavings on the whole floor, as well as in the nestboxes. Every few weeks, or whenever it starts to get messy, I replace the shavings. I've read about how to do a thorough clean by wiping...

Thank you very much! It looks like it'll be tough, but I'll do whatever I can for them.

This is the first time I've ever had chickens, but my dad had chickens when he was young, so he's been helping. However, his chickens were for eating, and mine are layers and pets. I don't know if I'm doing anything right, and over the last few days, my chickens have been worrying me. First, I...
