I hope some of you can help me out. I want to post this bird in the BSA section, but I need to know what to call it. I do know that it is a rooster, it is already crowing. It isn't too bad, it does it like 4-5 times at 7am and then nothing for the rest of the day...but that is now. I am...

I noticed a McFatty that went down on it's legs this morning. It definitely will not get up so I gave it it's own food and water until I can butcher it after work today - if it makes it through the heat. I believe that my meaties have cocci. I remember reading that it is still ok to eat the...

I am nearing my butchering date for my Jumbo Cornish X Rocks from McMurray. I am hoping some of the experienced processors can share their tips for getting the belly / breasts cleaned...maybe even sanitized during butchering. Mine just have not seemed to grow their under-feathers very well so...

I hope some you great folks could confirm what I want to do because I noticed a few poos with red spots in my meatie tractor. Please confirm if this is Cocci. Should I start them on Corid? Sulmet? I currently have broiler booster in their water. Should I remove that if I put Sulmet or...

It is almost midnight where I am. I went out to check on my 1wk old chicks and saw a JCXR that was not responding to the others jumping around. It just sits there and peeps. It moved some when I picked it up to bring it inside and give it some water by spoon. It did drink a fair amount such...

6-21-10: Only had one death so far, a JCXR. I keeping hearing (what I think is) sneezing. I am hoping it is only the wood chips or maybe the ammonia from the fatties kicking it into high gear. I do see a couple brown foamy poops once in a while. I took some close-ups of the free chick...

I found a worm in one of my chickens droppings today. I did not get a picture of it but here is my best attempt at a description: I believe it was a cecal poop because is was liquidy and greenish. It did have a solid part like a normal poop (from the poop page). I noticed a movement in the...

I checked a few pages in and did not find any topics like this. I have 6 RIR hens about 1yr old. The one that I believe is at the bottom of the pecking order (90% sure) is the sweetest one of all of them. Very calm and docile, doesn't make much noise, doesn't run around, and usually does not...

I hope someone has some input on this. I hope that my six RIR's are coming up to weight properly. They are 4 months old and are around 4 Lbs each, I do have a "runt" that is a little over 3 Lbs. My searches indicate a full grown weight of 5-6 Lbs is expected. They have a constant supply of...
