So I noticed Serena shuffling around 3 days ago. I bought her inside and put her in quarantine and administered nutridench. Vit E and Molassas (as we'd had another hen with botulism recently) No improvement. Couldn't feel an egg though she is a good layer. She was barely able to shuffle at this...

Picked her up from the 4H fair yesterday as she was getting trampled on. She has fluffy feet, so assumed a Brahma/Cochin at first, didn't even notice the head feathers till I got home!! They were just labelled as "olive layers"

Sorry not the best photos but this batch are Delware x SLW and California White x SLW ranging 12 -16 weeks. Any stand out as Roos?

So typically, bad time of year, one of my Welsummers has gone broody. We've decided as we have a small heated coop nearby to allow her to sit on some eggs and move her out next Tuesday. So this morning I open the nest boxes and she's sat on her eggs, screeching at me. Fair enough, later on I go...

Couple of questions. I quarantined and de-wormed a hen (and her sister) recently because I was at my wits end with what was wrong with her. By some kind of weird coincidence two days after I wormed her a completely different chicken pooped out a roundworm in my garage. So I confined and...
