So someone should be coming today for him. A bit sad but it has to be done. So it's not stressful on him either? To just pick him up and put him in a box and of he will go to a new home. Will he be fine just leaving like that and my hens.
Hello everyone, I cannot find anywhere to ask or post so I'll just jump in somewhere and hopefully someone can answer or point me in the right direction. I have 5 chickens 2 roosters and 3 hens. I have 2 coops where 1 rooster has 2 hens and the other only 1. I want to put my 2 hens with the...
Won't it confuse the hens putting them with a new rooster so quickly after having a different one? I know about them figuring out here peck order. I just don't want to stress the girls from changing them to a new coop and rooster. Although they have seen him and been around him at times...
Hello everyone, I do not really post much but want to make sure I will be doing this right. I have 2 roosters and 3 hens. 1 has 2 and the other has 1. They have there separate coops and runs. They have free ranged and have been around each other. So I want to get rid of the rooster with both...
I have lowered it. If they get too hot they get away from light right? The 2 that j have now seem fine and rest underneath and around the light. No its not medicated. I choose not to go that way and try let them go naturally and not have to rely on medicine.
Thank you. Yea I don't know either. So when they died in there mouth was like saliva I guess you can say.? Like it threw up. Don't know how to explain and I don't know if that is something coming out from them having something inside. Sorry if I did kot make sense.
I give my hens premium pellets. I thjnk 16 percent protein and they free range as well for half the day. There feed is non gmo it's called halfmoon. It's milled here in washington. I'm not sure if many people know about it. And my chicks are getting an organic crumble that is from oregon, can't...
Thanks. Yea I will be trying 35 for humidity. My problem was I had it around 30 or 25 then put it up to 40 the first time. So maybe having it ready this time will make it better.
I helped one of them. I don't know. Can they get cocci without going outside. I put a little 2x2 for roost but sanitized it before. I don't think that could of been it. Hopefully was just the weak. Yea hopefully my next hatch goes well. I will be setting eggs today.
One of the bigger ones is laying down with the one that looks like is going to die. I've seen the. Do this with the other that passed. They would lay with them. Looks so adorable but sad because I know it's dying. Do they know?
I don't know. There is 2 that are totally fine. They are way bigger. Eat and drink. The one that died and one who is dying right now would eat but not as much as the others. I did give them vitamins. No bloody poo that I have seen. I don't know.
Yea that was not something I wanted to do. Looks like the other small one starting to give up. I don't know what it is. I feel like it's me?. Tomorrow is week 2. And out of 6 I'm going to have 2. Not a good first experience. Thank you I hope my next hatch is better
So the baby was finally giving up. It was laying there barely taking a breathe I had to take it out of misery. Literally never thought I would, a had a tear in my eye I won't lie. Hopefully the 3 can keep going. There is still 1 that is smaller than the other 2. Who are just great and one tries...
