I have finally found something that works great for scaly mites. I use two bottles of Campho-phenique and pour into glass spray bottle. Then I refill the jars with with witch hazel (twice) to be sure all the campo-phenique is completely out. Then I add 1 1/2 cups of coconut oil. Shake well and...
I have a six week old barred rock chick that isn't walking good. At first I though she hurt her leg but when she walks she sort of drags each leg. When I hold her to my chest she lets both legs stray stretched out. It has been extremely hot in WNC. I have given her (and the rest of the...
I can't believe I haven't heard from anyone about this.
She ate really good tonight, on her own with a little bowl guidance. She coos when I go to her. I rub the top of her head and that seems to calm her. When she gets stressed I notice her neck crooks more.

Have had him since he was 3 weeks old. He is now 6 months old. Stool were fine in the house. No lice
or mites. Crop is squishy and I have been massaging it.

My not so baby chicks are so cute and growing like weeds. I call them "Kids" and when I yell for them, they come a running. All my chickens have been everywhere in the yard. I believe I will need to create an enclosure to keep them out of the gardens. Their house is on the edge of some...
LOL I gave him back to the Farmer I got him from. When I went to visit the farmer the rooster heard my voice and came running to the fence and watched me. I am glad I got rid of him.
