    Nice set up. I have just been emailing back and forth with the folks in the UK who offer the triggers. I plan to go ahead and order a couple of them.

    Trigger or Spring Feeders

    Hi, I am thinking of ordering one of these triggers as well. How have they worked out for you? Would be so great not to have all the birds and mice hanging around.

    Red bloated stomach, losing feathers- sick chicken!!

    Hi, I was glad to see your post. I have a hen with similar symptoms but I think she is still laying. I noticed that she is also red like this and loosing some feathers in the crop area - especially noted when it is full. I read on another site about giving Epsom Salts and I tried that but so...

    De-worming chickens.

    Hi, I am new to BYC but have been reading on here for almost a year now. I love all of the ideas and the feel of community. This whole backyard flock is new to me as of last April or May and I have lost a few chickens to who know what??? My most recent was the beautiful white hen pictured...

    Research on worming chickens with albendazole

    HI, did you get an answer on whether to repeat the dose on the Albendazole for deworming your chickens? I just used it last Friday and also would like to know the answer to that. Thanks so much!
