My hen is having breathing problems. She is not showing any other symptons. I have tried antibiotics, i have used vetrx to help open up her nasal passages. She has no swelling of nasal cavity, no mucas in her mouth, eyes or nasal areas. Just breathing thru her mouth. She was in a very dusty...
So we just went thru a 3 day dose of tylan 50. Its been a week at least since the treatment. We lost 3 littles but our grown girls seemed to make it. Nowbi have a hen who is lethargig and seems to have an intestinal issue. We have oiled her vent, checked for stuck eggs, used warm compresses on...
I have had my flock on oxytetracyclynfor a week. I had 3 young birds (6 to 8 wks) and as soon as one died twomore got sick. Within 4 days 2 more littles died. Since then 3 of my hens (1 yr olds) have started coughing and one has actually seperated herself from the flock.. I do not think that...
A few questions.
1. I have a 10 week old hen that started limping 48 hours ago. We have brought her in and put her without even of my younger feathery friends. She
is allowed out a couple times a day for fresh air and stretching. Am I on the right track?
2. About 5 days ago the weather...
Ty I got them from our county craiglist and I actually knew the young lady as she grew up with my kids. It is poor business management too. She will not return our emails and I think I will contact the counties craiglist management and get the word out that she isa bad breder. What else.... Its...
Thank you for answering my post. I am now sure that 2 of the 3 are roosters. Still looking at the 3rd one. He/She is smaller but it does have the black feathers at the tail. I see that the hens don't get any tail feathers like that. Just wanted to stop by and say ty again... I did post a pic...
So I am trying to get my photos loaded onto this computer but after all your replys I feel certain that these are all roosters. So my question now is, do I contact the breeder whom I purchased 3 HENS from ( she sells all over the country I have been told) and ask her to trade for 3 hens, ask her...
So I got 3 little hatchlings, all supposed to be hens... Well at 4 months one was obviously a Roo as he started crowing... Needless to say we were very surprised. This is our first year with our wonderful flock... Now I have 2 hens left but one is starting to crow.. Omg, please tell me they...

I hope this is how I get some specific information. Our first year raising this wonderful flock. We have americaunas and some mix, we have a rhodebar red rooster and a couple hens. I love them all.. My question is about the rooster and his role in this little family. I see he is starting to...
Sometimes I feel weird asking questions, but no question is a dumb question right? Here gos.... ok so how does a rooster actually fertelize an egg...I guess if I pick the egg every day, its not gonna be fertilized right? and then there is the question how will I know if my girls are getting...
