    B-12 Defeciency

    No, it is after she has eaten, or when I observe her during the day. She is one of my best eater, and she looks healthy like the other 12. She also seems to be more of a "loner" most of the time. I have 4 that will jump up in my lap to be petted even when I don't have any treats. I realize...

    B-12 Defeciency

    I have 13 chickens that will be 9 weeks old this week. I have one that eats great, but she stops and bobs her head from one side to another. Someone who knows a lot about chickens told me that she needed B-12. I am now giving all of them B-12 pellets with their hard boiled eggs, oatmeal...

    Vitamin B-12 deficiency

    I have 13 two month old chickens. One keeps moving her head from side to side. I was told she needs B-12. Has anyone else had this problem with their chickens? I'm sprinkling the B-12 granules daily.

    My 13 healthy chicks are nearly 5 weeks old. I was told to keep them on medicated chick feed for 4 months. I have given them grated hard boiled eggs a couple of times with grit and they loved it. What else is safe to give them?

    Whether or Not to Use Mini Flake Pine Shavings

    My 13 (Baker's doz) are 3 1/2 weeks now. My husband just finished a beautiful 4 x 4 x 8 coop, and I plan on putting them in there tomorrow afternoon if it doesn't rain again. We have had soooo much rain in Texas this year. They will have a light also in there. I plan on leaving them in...

    Whether or Not to Use Mini Flake Pine Shavings

    The larger pine flakes over newspapers are working great. I still have them in a large box in my studio, and change their water, papers, etc. every 12 hours. The are becoming so tame, and I love to watch their personalities develop. I bought the kind of galvanized steel waterer that hooks up...

    How do chicks and hens get along?

    I appreciate all the information. It would be nice if I could find others near me that also have chicks. We live in the country. I've decided not to take the chance for the baby chicks. Hopefully, the 5 older ones will find good homes. We almost have their coop finished, but the weather is...

    How do chicks and hens get along?

    Thanks for the information. My son was told he has to get rid of the chickens he has had for a year and a half. He has raised them since they were 3 days old. One of his neighbors turned him in. We have baby chicks that are 3 weeks old, and I was wondering how they would get along. We are...

    Whether or Not to Use Mini Flake Pine Shavings

    Thanks for the suggestions. I purchased the large pine shavings today, and all 13 seem to be happy. I also borrowed a book on raising chickens which I intend to read tonight. I have 7 different breeds in all I think, so I'm also trying to determine some of the breeds by the pictures. I didn't...

    Whether or Not to Use Mini Flake Pine Shavings

    Yes, they have been running around for some time. In fact, I have to put a fishing net over the box I put them in while I clean their large box. Two have already shown me they could fly to the top of the smaller box.

    Whether or Not to Use Mini Flake Pine Shavings

    I lost one yesterday, and it could have been because of the shredded newspaper I had two sources tell me about to use. It made me so sad to think that might have been the cause. I have switched to putting a yoga mat on the bottom, then newspapers secured on top of that. I also cut paper...
