I was concerned for Miss Daisy May, my one and a half year old Co-Op hen. She eats a lot! So much that her crop gets to looking like she's carting around a baseball under her beak and since it gets quite hard I figured it might be impacted. I put her in a separate cage outside of her pen with...

For some time now I've had a Co-Op Red that is in terrible shape, she's lost feathers on her back and wings, her neck and she's bald. At first I suspected my roo was being rough so I put a saddle on her thinking her feathers would grow in - they haven't. Now other hens are showing signs of rough...

Jan 2 2014 -13F feels like -33 with the extreme windchill and a west wind of 10 mph on Prince Edward Island, Canad! Not a warm direction for the wind to come from around here but at least its not a freezing north wind. I used 8 jugs of warm water just to get the passenger side door on my van...

Aside from using Poultry Comb & Wattle Winter Protection and I will see if the Feedstore I get feed from has something to protect their feet and legs ... This is what I want to avoid this winter: Frostbitten crown, then it turns black and you have to cut it off...

Personally, I don't let my birds out in the snow, Period. Its too cold for them. The closest they get to being outside is their enclosed Hutch. On a good day I will open the flap so they get some sun but that's it. My hutch during the summer, in front is the coup. Hutch is tarped and...

This Co-Op Hen has a red, crusty scab on her head. If she'd been picked on, with that amount of damage, I would have noticed it. Feathers can't seem to grow back. Was she picked on and it scabbed over or is this something else? Closeup. Otherwise she is in good health, she eats, drinks and...

This morning Sweet Pea is better. The effects seem to be wearing off of the tainted barley seed she ate. She stands just fine and she can walk more steadily and seems to be recovering her balance. She's very aware and alert, she even laid an egg! I put her and Henny's eggs aside so they are not...

We have a rescued turkey hen who is laying, we've had her for a month and a quarter. She was abused and left to starve by her owners and was sitting on three eggs for about three weeks and barely eating ,according to friends of ours who had her in their yard. We brought her home and isolated her...

I posted about my Lethargic Turkey Chick in both the Turkey and the Chicken forums. No one answered. She died. Maybe you should think twice about not answering posts. Stephanie

I'm re-posting this here because I haven't gotten a single answer. I bought some SuperBooster and have been dropper feeding her all day. Her crop is empty and I'm getting some SickChick, tomorrow if the store is open; Monday for sure. I have two Turkey chicks, one is quite a bit older and...

So, I have two Turkey chicks, one is quite a bit older and larger than the younger one. All was fine, even after we transferred them into the chicken coup with the chicks and still fine until we took the heat lamp out. Naturally at first I figured she was cold but the weather has been so warm...

Today was the first day that I took all their toys out of the large cardboard brooder. I put a light colored blanket in on one end and sat myself down with them, with a bowl of there favorite treat - egg yolk with a little egg white. I plastered both hands and they came a-runnin'. My hatched...

How often can you give chicks cooked egg yolk? I gave them some a day ago to encourage a chick that was not eating and it disappeared so fast I couldn't keep up! They loved it that much...

I have a baby chick with weak legs. She can walk but has no energy to. I just started dropper feeding her a little sugar water. I have yogurt and chick feed as well. She takes the liquid readily, how do I get her to eat yogurt mixed with chick feed and what else can I do for her? She can walk...

I have a chick that hatched yesterday, she had a hard time of it getting through the shell and was trapped inside part of the membrane, so I freed her. The part of the membrane she had pecked through was wet but another part, under the shell she was still trapped in, was white and quite tough. I...

Chick just hatched with a greenish placenta like sac still attached. It was alive at hatching, has not moved since. I have her in a pre-heated, sterile bowl in the bator at 70 % and 99 F with a damp cloth almost covering the bowl. Is this the yolk her body still has to absorb and what else...
