Hello everyone, I have two week old silkie and polish chicks that I moved into a larger brooder two days ago. I changed from coop clean to pine shavings in the brooder. This morning I checked on them and there was blood in many of the stools. It was a mixture of dark red and bright red in the...

Hello there again! My first batch of chicks have done great! However, I just got 8 new babies that are about two wks old. I moved them to a larger brooder and put pine shaving in two days ago. I had been using coop clean in the smaller. Today there is a lot of bright red and dark red blood in...

Hey! My dark brahma is 4 or 5 wks old and has been extremely dominant and loud. I got her from a hatchery that was supposed to be all female. She has alway stood straighter than my other chicks and never has liked to be held. Extremely flighty and squawks really loud of I remove any of the...

Thank you guys! Yes they have been on medicated feed all of then from day one and continue to be. I did the corrid today! I kept her out of the big coop today so she wasn't so stressed. I may wait until the babies are bigger and put the three babies and silkies in with the big girls together to...

I have a three month old silkie that has bright red blood in stool this am. Last night was the first night in the big coop with four of my 10 wk old chicks. I have been socializing then for a while but last night I placed her in the coop with them to sleep. She's been very timid in the coop and...

Amazing info! I can't thank you enough! Do you recommend starting my first worm at 4 months? They are on pine shavings in the brooder and go outside in yard once a day. They will move to coop in a wk or two. Sand and pea gravel on bottom of run. They will only free roam when heavily supervised...

Perfect! Thank you!!

Hey everyone! I am a newbie and I am recieving my coop and run next week. We are in the midst of preparing the ground for it. The size will be 5x10. I have a lot of land around me with about every kind of predator…. I need to run hardware cloth under the entire area so that mice also don't get...

What do I need to do? Take her away from food for a bit? Thank you!

So good and bad news. I just checked on the chicks this morning and the white leghorn is acting normal but I picked her up and she has a huge bulge at the bottom of her throat and upper chest on the right side. The left is completely normal. It looks like a tumor. What is this? Help please!

So my three week white leghorn has always been very spunky and loves to fly at me for treats when I open up the brooder with the other three chicks. She was great this morning and when I came home this evening she had no interest when I opened the brooder top while the other chicks went crazy...

Here's my br again. She's spunky and has pecked me a couple of times but she is the largest and oldest. Still feeling like a hen?

Here is my br as well.
