    Tape Worms

    I'm almost positive my chickens (one at least) have tape worms. I saw the little grain like white specs moving around in their poop. How do I treat for tape worm? I've been told a broad spectrum de-wormer won't kill tape worm, but that's all my local animal clinic says they can give me. I've...

    Aggressive at 2 weeks? Rooster traits?

    I confirmed with the lady I bought them from that they are in fact 2 weeks old. She said they were growing much faster than her other chicks too and just seem to be big! It seems to have mostly settled down with the other chicks. I've never seen the "spurring" yet, just a lot of very tall...

    Aggressive at 2 weeks? Rooster traits?

    Hens Disappearing...

    I had three hens who have sadly, one by one, disappeared. They free range on our 3 acre property but always stay close to the open (in the day) coop, food and our house. They love digging in my garden beds and I love looking outside to see them having their dust baths. I did make them a 10 foot...

    Losing Feathers, Getting Pecked and Walking Wobbly!

    I am brand new here and to the world of chickens.. we just brought home our first chickens two weeks ago, along with their coop. We have three chickens that are only in the coop to lay and sleep, otherwise they free range in our backyard. I noticed when we brought them home, one of them was...
