I have a silkie who's about 6-8 wks old who's not eating and not acting right. I separated the chick & have it in my garage. I did hear it sneeze last night. What should I do?
All of a sudden we have flies galore in the chicken run. We're not having a problem in the coop, just the run. Any suggestions on how to control the flies?
I ordered 7 white silkies, straight run, mix of bearded & non bearded from a hatchery. This morning someone had said that usually the hatcheries only give you non bearded. Is that true? How can I tell if these babies are bearded or not. They're only 5 days old. Can you tell this early?
Right now we have 9 hens & 1 roo that are 7 months old. We bought them from a backyard breeder who said they were australorps. Well.. they're mixed, & we really wanted full breeds. So, we ordered some full breeds, 17 pullets & 2 roos that are currently in the brooder and are about 4 weeks now...
I have a hen that has a respiratory infection. It was advised to give her tetracycline which has helped. We are on day 5 of the treatment but her poo is still very watery. Would the meds make it this way? She seems back to normal other wise. Maybe there's something else going on? TIA
Same. Heading out this morning. I'm going to pick up some electrolytes. I would like to get them all dewormed but not sure what to get. I'm new to all this. Any suggestions? Is there a dewormer that does all worms?
