Okay so you have to read this. I was mowing the lawn and one of my americaunas who is only 2 and perfectly seemingly healthy and had just been eating treats with the rest of the group, RACES past me like a bat out of Hell..... Seriously, she literally ran faster than any chicken I have ever...

please please please take the time to read....I really need to know if I am dealing with some type of disease or a huge coincidence. I am hoping this is a coincidence, but, finding it hard to believe....I have had chickens for years and never seen this and now it has happened to two chickens in...

One of my girls (and possibly a couple others) had what looked like a giant spot of diarrhea on her vent feathers. I flipped her upside down and it was GRITTY, Grainy, black SMELLY! poo or ooze or something covering all down under her vent out towards the leg feathers and all up above her vent...

I have a bunch of girls with really runny white butts and I haven't wormed since last fall so think it is time. I wormed last fall with Wazine and eprinex I think. I researched a month ago and went and got Ivermectin Pour on 5mg and fenbendazole as this was what was most recommended and then...

Sorry to double post, but, the earlier post I said it was NOT pour on, but it is....see my response...any help is so appreciated: ....it is the ivomec Eprinex Pour-on for Beef and Dairy Cattle containing 5 mg eprinomectin/ml. I know that people have posted to pour it on to the chicken, BUT, I...

I found tons of info on Pour on eprinex, but, what is the dosage per gallon for putting the cattle liquid treatment in their water?

can we scramble them and feed them back to the chickens? or, could that reinfest them? Thanks,

I went out to find that our less than week old chick was outside the chicken coop and upon finding him/her, someone or something (I am thinking the other banty whom might not live here any more!) so literally the skin is pulled right down like a chicken in the store. Her whole right side is...

PLEASE READ AND SEE IF OYU HAVE ANY FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE OF THIS. OK so a week or two ago, I noticed that one of my 25 hens didn't "seem right" so when I picked her up I noticed that the front of her chest, above the breast bone (the part that is just below the neck, but, not between the legs...

I have posted symptoms regarding a Banty rooster and someone said it could sound like Marek's disease....my question is to anyone who has familiarity with this? Several things...This Banty came here last August, as did any of the latest additions to the flock. No one has been added or some...

My banty rooster Mille Fleure started walking funny to the side last night and then we found him today just laying to one side, but, he can keep his head up. I posted earlier because I thought he was dying right then, but, nobody replied. New information that has come about is that he CAN eat...

Ok...the boys go out to the poultry houses and the banty Mille Fleur rooster is laying on the bottom of the banty house floor. Can't stand and laying to one side with his head up. There is no obvious trauma, they can't get out of their run so he realy couldn't get into anything...he was fine...

Duckling hatched, BUT, still half in shell (or back end) and there is a GIANT blob between his legs....is there ANY chance of him actually absorbing that size mass? What do I do with him????? Please help! Thanks!

All were active and moving on day 25, but, 6 didn't pip. I opened them up and they were dead in shell with a thickish kind of liquid around them...one was smelly, the others a darker fluid. Looked just fine, but this liquid? anyone have any idea what might have happened? I had 14 hatch...

WHY do I have a pip on day 25? I had an early hatcher in our last batch, pipped day 27 and hatched day 27, but, I don't normally have a pip this early. I had the top open and everything...not in lockdown, hadn't even cranked up the humidity! Do you think they will be OK? Is she going to get...

This is our second batch. Last time, we set 28, 21 made it to lockdown and 19 hatched. 6 needed help and were really slow the first (second) day...but, they made it. The whole process had its ups and downs. This time, we set 38 and 36 are still in! Lockdown is in the morning! They came out...

I appreciate all the support the board has offered me during this first hatch. Ups and Downs and a million questions (well...a few, but, still..) since day 1! As I finally had to fill the bathroom with steam and heat and go in to help one out (it truly was a last resort and the only thing that...

Hello. Hatching out right now. Day 28. I know it says to leave them in there, but, I just got home to 4 or 5 ducklings that hatched out while I was gone for 2 hours and they are all piled on top of one poor duck and they have pushed several of the still pipping eggs way into the corner...
