They free range so have grass, bugs, etc. I also given them chicken scratch in the mornings and then they have Purina layer pellets. Main symptoms is standing or laying with eyes closed. No panting. Some diarrhea

The breeds have died are a Barnevelder, Cream legbar and a black australorp. The ones that are not doing well are several different breeds as well. Yes it does seem to be heat I would think, Giving them electrolytes and have a fan on them as well in the shade. Anything else to help them?

Hi, I live in South Louisiana and we have had record heat this past June, Last week a few days were over 100F and heat index close to 110F due to humidity. I have about 50 chickens, they have about 1 acre to graze in and 2 large runs that are covered with plenty of shade. I give fresh cool...

Thanks..

My salmon favorelle , Isabella, is losing only her neck feathers. It started about 2 weeks ago and I thought maybe she was molting. She is about 1 ½ years old and hasn't molted yet. She isn't acting like my other chickens when they molt, her comb is still bright red, I think she may be still...

I am very familiar with broody hens and agree with the dog crate method. I place mine on my patio where I can watch her and protect her from grabby hands of other vermin. Put her food and water and no bedding. Mine I leave in for 48 hours and then presto, no more broodiness. I have a blue laced...

We have had our 3 hens for a little over a year now. I checked my association rules before we got them and I did miss the part about no poultry. In EBRP you can have 3 hens legally. I am now in the process of amending the bylaws or asking for variance. I have talked to all my surrounding...

Coop isn't big enough for the cage. Yeah, I thought something could get her. We have a secure storage area that they couldn't get it into. I'll move her in there at night... THanks for response!!

I have my broody Buff Orpington in a medium sized wire cage. It is on the porch with a large fan on it, it's Louisiana August heat here. Should I put here in with the others at night or is it safe to keep her contained in cage at night. I'm worried about possums and raccoons. We have had a few...

Hello all! Just wanted to give update that chicken is healthy and happy. My advice to anyone whose chicken is sprayed by or eaten recently sprayed plants: Symptoms of chicken: Breathing fast with elevated HR (notice vent will be opening/closing to respiration rate) Lethargic and just laying...

the insect spray has pyrethrins and piperonyl Butoxide. She is still awake and alert, but just wants to lay down. Have kept her inside in protected large box with water and mush. She isn't eating, but is drinking a lot of water. I used the flush once more last pm. She had one regular poo and...

Hi, I have a garden fenced off and my barred rock got in there and must have eaten some tomatoes I had just sprayed. I found her today in the back of yard, no moving much and breathing fast with white liquify stuff coming from vent. I have given her first dose of the epsom salts flush and...

Thanks for all the advice. I am keeping mine in a box in our back room with vent. holes until we get it in a secure environment. It tried to dig under the door. The coop has small thick wire so can't get in that way. Adding several different syle locks on door and egg hatch. Then going to dig a...

Hi all. I just ordere 4 10 week pullets and got in wed. Have coop (pre fab see design) and something tore thru patched fence last night and got into my coop. thinking it got in thru unlocked nest box. I am horrified this happened already. One survived. 2 were gone with only feathers left and...
