She responded well to the Baytril and is developing normally. We only have the two hens and they are integrated together now. The second hen is not showing any sinus problems and doesn't smell. I guess she will eventually show symtoms, but she may have had the disease earlier and is a carrier...

What is CRD?

We added a new Barred Rock hen to our family and she smells like a really stinky dog! She is roughly 5-7 mo. old. We thought that because she had been raised in cages, that she didn't learn how to take a dirt bath. She presumably has learned from our other hen and has been seen rolling in the...

I don't know...it's really weird. I don't know if it is a result of the rooster hurting her insides, or if it is something that happens to older hens. Anybody else want to chime in with some other theories? Thanks, rusty_038

My Golden Seabrite Bantam hen that turned 7 years old last month had what looks like yolk-colored "jelly beans" in her poop. Is this normal or an indication of an internal problem? A medium-sized rooster (that we promptly gave away) jumped her to mate last year and we had to take her to the...

Thank you everyone for your help. Ginger is an Asil/Aseel Game hen mix. I found a picture on another post. rusty_038

Could she possibly have some American Game in her? rusty_038

Attached is a picture of our new addition to our family. Her name is Ginger and we adopted her from the LA animial shelter. She seems a little on the younger side (8-9 mo is my best guess) and she is currently laying medium sized white eggs. She is a mottled reddish brown with a dark red head...

I have a Golden Laced Wyandotte hen (almost at laying age) and a Easter Egger Rooster (not crowing yet) we are trying to find a home for. They were raised together as chicks and we do not want to separate them. We can deliver the pair to you. Let me know if you are interested. We have a feed...

Still looking for a good home. Going out of town from 8-9-09 to 8-16-09. Hoping for a reply before Sunday. I will address any other replies after the 16th. rusty_038

We are forced to give up for adoption an Easter Egger Rooster (Granite) and a Golden Wyandotte hen (Millie). Both are roughly 2-3 months old. My city does not allow roosters (noisy bird ordinance) and the pair have been raised together from chicks and we do not want to separate them. Granite has...

This is Granite the rooster. I looked through the breed pics and don't see any with a black head and neck. Can anyone tell me what breed he is? He is approximately 2 months old. rusty_038

No he was not specific. He just prescribed the Baytril for 10 days and to bring her back in if the problem lingered. The vet I use is one of 6 bird specialists in CA and the only one in the LA area. I have assume he knows what he is doing. The previous vet I visited almost killed one of my...

The vet took a blood sample and said the results showed it was a virus, probably transmitted by our new chickens. She was really down when she was sick. (lethargic, tail down, not talking, runny poop). She seems to be back to normal, except for the egg laying. rusty_038

I have a Golden Seabright Bantam hen that is 5 1/2 years old. She is having egg laying problems. Her last 3 eggs have been laid at night and there is no shell (making a big mess). She seems to be acting normally and is eating. Crushed oyster shell is available in the pen at all times. She has...
