I will stop today and get both products and try to see if we can help her, I really appreciate your information. At least I will feel like I'm able to do something for her.
Thank you all, her legs seem to be fine as she has been moving around the run. Her crop seemed flat before she ate, but I will check her again to make sure it is. If she is egg bound will I feel something to know that is the problem? Should I go ahead and treat her for worms and is the...
We have a bantam Easter egger hen about 16 months old. We have noticed in the last several days her staying puffed up and has progressed to being less active staying inside the coop more and realized she has lost weight. Her breastbone is more prominent. There has been no other illnesses with...
KBG204, not sure if you were asking me about my chick having feathers on her leg, it's a little hard for me to tell the way the posts show up, but if so, she is clean legged
Here's a little different view of her.
Pollo porero I think you are right! She does look an australorp! Thank you!
and...
Our Buff Brahma babies, one in bantam version
Three Amigos...2 Black Jersey Giants and a bantam breed we haven't identified yet
Little Penny, a bantam, but we aren't sure which breed
Lily, what we hope is a little Mille Fleur bantam
Any ideas on what this little one may be?
I live in SW VA and have been wondering the same, so far our grown chickens have managed well without an additional heat source, but I have some five week old chicks I'll be adding soon and am a little worried about them adjusting to the cooler environment. Will probably try the heat lamp at...
We have a four week old baby welsummer, she is laying down, not being active and breathing hard with her mouth open, just doesn't seem to be well. Is there any suggestions as to what's wrong and what to do?
I think it is the rooster, tried blucoat which seemed to help, but then found another area opened and oozing around her tail which after observing the flock I think was caused by the rooster mounting her and opening an area and the others pecking at it. Ended up moving her to a protected area...
We have one rooster and four hens and between yesterday and today noticed an area on one of the hen's backs about 2"x1" that has had the feathers removed and is red and has some blood oozing. One of the hens is broody and sitting in the coop on eggs, so she is not involved and we noticed the...
We have 4 Hens and a rooster who were born in March, and I have ordered 6 more chicks to arrive in October. Are there any tips as to how to introduce the new chickens to our existing flock and at what age should we add the babies? Thank you!
Very sad to say she died during the night. I guess my question now is do I get rid of the three roosters? I really don't want this to happen again. We've been debating over maybe keeping just one or getting rid of all three, one of the roosters attacked my son's hat last week scratching his...
Came home today to find my speckled Sussex hen had been attacked, she has been bleeding near her tail feathers and on her back, they are in a closed pen so it had to be one of the other birds. We ended up with three roosters in the flock of eight. She's rather weak and sleepy, can't seem to...
