Quote: Omg I am jealous! that is a wonderful setup!

Yesterday one of my older birds attacked one of my younger still chick birds. He sustained some horrible gashes on his head and both his eyes are swollen. I brought him inside and cleaned him up and put some neosporin on his cuts and gave him a stitch or two. He has made it 24 hours and appears...

I was planning on replacing the bulbs in two or three hanging lights in the coop (which is more like a shed) to keep the temp above freezing for the water. You can get the heat lamps that unfold and can be screwed up onto rafers on ebay

so housing the pullets together is ok? They wont pick at each other?

Does anyone have a link to any articles on housing exhibition poultry. I am trying to figure out what is the best type of coop to build for my Langhans because I want to try and show them next year. I do not want them to destroy their feathers. If I have to house them all separately I would like...

Hello, I will have to take a photo of their coop and run and post it. The run is dirt pack and their house is a wooden box that we built that is about 3 feet by 3 feet. There is one roost in the coop and the hen uses that and the roo sleeps sitting down on the floor. ok...so this is a photo...

Hello All...I have two langshans and my question is about housing them. I built a coop and a 15 x 15 run for them because they were messing up their feathers running around the yard. Even though I put them in the pen my rooster still messes up his tail feathers (almost like they are shredding)...

I am planning on going to this show. It will be the first show I enter my birds into (GULP)! Anyone else going??

I will go and pick up some Sevin from the farm store tomorrow. I treated the other birds with the ivermectin as well and cleaned the coop. I will buy the sevin and clean it again and dust. Pardon my stupid question, but when you give anything to your birds orally isnt there a special method...

I have a langshan roo and he has mites and lice (Which I cannot believe and have no idea how he got them...uggh) Well anyhow, he has them. I spent the last two days reading BYC about how to get rid of the lice and mites and I decided to try Ivermectin Pour on for cattle (5mg). I went and bought...

I just brought home a rooster a week ago to discover that he has lice and mites. I just went to tsc and got some pour on ivermectin (there are a lot of posts on here about dosing and treatment) and put it on him a few hours ago while he was sleeping. I also bought poultry dust for a few days...

My Langshan roo was the pinacle of health two days ago. Today I went into his pen and I noticed these little tiny insects on him. Today was the first day I opened the windows on his pen because it was 65 degrees today. Tonight when I went in to close the windows I noticed his comb (which is...

What time should you get there for buying birds? last year I got there around noon and pretty much everything was sold out.

I just called the tractor supply in Waldorf and all they have gotten in so far is americaunas. Hopefully a better assortment will come this week

The one hen I brought in the house has clear glassy eyes. Like normal.

That dead odor is what all the ones who died stunk from. It was horrible smelling. The coop smells of it now too.

Let me add that I have not noticed any coughing from any of the birds and the bird that I brought in the house had a horrible horrible smell to her. I cannot tell what their poop is like because everything around here is total mud because of the melting snow.

Hello, I am located in MD. I have a flock of Phoenix White and Silver. I have never had any problems with them except for predators. My birds are around a year old. Three days ago I went out to feed the chickens. I had them locked in the coop because a recent snow storm collapsed their pen and i...
