I lost many chickens to hawks.

Check out this four leaf clover my sister just found in the yard. That is a 5x7 picture frame. Sorry for the crappy webcam pic. I was in a hury.

I looked all over one of my birds and did not see anything. Just a lot of broken feather tips. I wanted to treat just to be safe.

I bought some seven 5 in a shaker can for my garden. I was planning to use this on my chickens also. I was reading the back of the container and it did not sound like it was safe to use on animals. It said something about fatal if absorbed into skin and to keep away from pets. I know a lot of...

I have 16 chicks that I will eventually free range also. I am so affraid that when I put them with the others they will start pecking like the rest. I have tried everything. My new plan is to treat with 7 dust every 10 days and make sure they dont have any kind of mite causing all this to be...

Quote: My dang chickens have always had pecking problem. I wouldn't be surprised if the hens are now pecking my roo. It's not as bad now that they free range everyday all day but it is a problem that I can not fix. I have tried everything. I kept them caged to long when I first got them and...

My roo is missing feathers on his neck right below his head on the left side. It looks almost raw. Its been like this for a 3 weeks now.

I went down to the basement this morning to check out my chicks. One of them was roosting on the heat lamp cord. LOL

Thank you everyone for the replies. I am going to pick up some nutri drench from tractor supply. I will also feed some scrabled eggs daily. Sorry for no pic. I can not seem to find my memory card for the camera. Thank you and I will keep you all updated in this post on her condition.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE AWAKE THIS MORNING.

Do not use olive oil around their vents to help with pasting. As soon as I tried this yesterday in a little as five minutes they were pecking at each other really bad. Their little bums were raw. Immediately I put some black suave anti peck around their vent area to keep them from pecking at it...

I have a chick who is clearly the smallest out of 16. The other chicks are getting big and she looks to have stayed the same. She seems to be having some problems walking. When she really wants to she can walk/run holding her wings out to steady her. Most of the time she just lays down. I feel...

Mine are 3 days old also. 4 of mine have it. There vents are clear after I clean it off but it stays on their feathers by their vents. I have been checking them daily. I think I am going to try the sugar water tomorrow.

Quote: Thank you. I will try that.

I'm new to this. I should of checked them when I brought them home yesterday. I didn't think about it. I did just now clear their vents. There were about five of sixteen that had it. Should this stop in a few days?

I have some chicks with pasting. I cleaned them off but the poo is still on their feathers but their vents are clear.

I wish I had room for a jersey also. Just wondering are you all going to drink the milk raw. And I hear a milk cow can give a half gal to a gal of milk and never dry up.

ok. I'll put them in shavings from the start. Sounds good. Thanks.
