I tried giving him some yoghurt and scrambled egg, he seems to weak to eat. He just closes his eyes when I hold him and he can't stand up anymore. I'm thinking of just putting him out of his misery, I don't know what else to do for it.
I got it to drink some coconut oil and I put some on its vent. It didn't poop so I squeezed again and all that came out was oil, so it seems he's not eating at all anymore. I'm going to try and give him scrambled egg now, but he doesn't look good.
I received an order of 13 chicks from ideal poultry yesterday and one of them arrived with spraddle leg. I made a sort of hobble out of a sponge with 2 holes, it can stand up and sort of hop around, so idk if the spraddle leg will be fixed or not. But now it seems like the bigger problem is this...
Im home searching and trying to figure out how much acreage I need to own 2 horses. Im looking at homes in both Albany and corvallis, and I didn't see anything about regulations for horses in corvallis. Anyone know the space regulations or any other helpful info? Thanks
I am noticing some differences however, between the Easter egger and the supposed Russian orloffs. The Easter egger is darker and its wing feathers are different.
Ee wings
Ro wings
Plus, I forgot that ee's have dark legs, and the ros don't so I'm thinking that they are Russian orloffs...
Thanks for the advice:) I put a little in there and they wouldnt even go near it I guess ill look tomorrow and see if they ate it... but it will probably still be there lol
I have 21 3 day old chicks and I just carved a pumpkin, so I have a bunch of pumpkin insides. They are eating chick grit, so can I feed them a small amount of the pumpkin? And if I can do I have to cut it up?
im pretty sure these 2 are a golden and white crested black, but would still like a second opinion
This is the one I don't know. I saw one very similar on another thread that said it was either white or splash, but the hatchery I got it from does not sell either of those colors.
*i got them...
I was thinking about using hard red winter wheat, and for the thickness I was planning on about 1/2 inch deep, I don't know how many cups per sq feet that is. I want to do it mostly to cut feed costs, but also for their health. I guess ill just have to experiment, thank you for your input. And...
I know this has already been asked but I haven't seen many answers, and the two I saw were very different. One said 1 sq in per chicken a day, another said 4? Does anyone else have any input? I am going to have about 20-25 chickens and was thinking about feeding half of a 10"x10" container a...
This is probably already answered but I didn't have time to go through the whole thread, how much fodder per chicken per day? Im going to have about 20 chickens and I wanted to sprout fodder, so how many pounds would I give them a day? also is there anything else I would need to give them...
Im trying to plan my coop and I would like to use poop boards under the roosts, but it can only go out 3 ft without blocking the door. Is that enough for two 2x4 roosts side by side? I figured the first one would be 8 in from the wall, then 4 in for the bar, the next one 14 in away, then 4 in...
it doesnt look like mareks, correct? Im getting 15 new chicks in a month and don't want it to spread to them if it is marek's. they will be vaccinated but still... and thanks for your response.
So I noticed about a month ago that my easter egger was losing feathers in a ring around her neck and thought it was lice or feather picking. About a week or 2 ago I noticed a bump developing under her beak on a neck. It jiggles when she walks. other than that she and my other 3 chickens seem...
