    Worms or Shed Intestinal Lining - Yucky Pics!!

    Ok... Someone help... Is there an alien residing in my chicken? I came home from work today and sometime during the day, one of my hens left this "deposit" on the poop board... I grabbed the plastic fork for a size reference... The outer skin looked dry and still pliable. The inside is...

    Yet another Avian Flu thread

    Heh.. Funny stuff. I do like a good bourbon now and then. I don't import too much Russian vodka, I found a great domestic made right here in Minnesota that I enjoy daily "Prarie" brand, made in Prinston. I'm not incredibly worried about the chickens, although, I did purchase a half dozen...

    Kathy, how often should we given them this dose in addition to the doses in the water? We also have a beagle who spent time around them quite a bit. Once we realized they were sick, we have kept her away. What is the risk to her?

    Thanks! We've got a tractor supply close by. I was rushing to get my coop completed to move them, but now I'm thinking of waiting a little while until they are larger and can handle the cold a little better. I'll get them into a larger space asap.

    Well, I guess "thankfully" that didn't take long. The Black Australorp is no longer suffering. Of course now I'm experiencing "everything is suspect" sort of fears... I noticed one of my BO's has bloody stool. Wondering if this might be an outbreak of Coccidiosis??? Anyone else lose chicks...

    So, my little flock is about 5 weeks old. I had them in a brooder in the house under a heat lamp and they seemed to be doing great. Growing at an incredible rate. My girlfriend and I came to the conclusion that they were outgrowing the brooder - we had 9 chicks in a rubber made tub that was...

    Chickens don't sail do they?

    Hello everyone. Glad to be aboard. After retiring from the Navy after 21 years, I finally got myself a plot of land and wasted no time getting some chickens. I have virtually no experience, but feel confident that I can (with your help) reach some success with my little flock. My birds are...
