    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    Managed to catch her and have a good feel around. Crop is fine, she’s very skinny though and her comb is looking a bit dull and pale compared to when she had started laying... the had a very small ulcer/sore on the outside of her vent but nothing seemed swollen and to be honest it might just be...

    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    If I can catch her lol! I’ll try and check her when I can get my hands on her! No no growling or flattening - yet she won’t squat for me either! She not the smartest.. she has one white toenail that she has repeatedly pecked time and time again thinking it’s a big *face palm*! She hasn’t made a...

    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    Update: still not laying, added electrolytes to be water. Betty is very placid and seems to only want to sit underneath the deck. This morning I found a HUGE poo - it looked like a broody poo but she isn’t brooding in the nest box or trying to steal Veronica’s eggs. Is it possible that she’s...

    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    Yes it’s quite humid also. I sometimes give hem ice in their drinking water, but they have zero idea when I give them frozen fruit or ice cubes. They don’t seem to want to go near it! I have to admit, these two are not the smartest chickens I’ve ever owned lol! Adorable.. but not smart!

    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    I’ll definitely go and get some vitamins, although it’s stinking hot here in Queensland, Australia so she’s definitely warm. I managed to catch her yesterday and had a really good look at her, she didn’t have a runny nose or puffy eyes or anything... maybe she did have a touch of something and...

    Australorp PALE yolks and few eggs

    Oh yes, forgot to mention country! I’m from Brisbane, Queensland. It’s been horrendously hot so maybe she’s a little heat stressed too. I’m not worried about the color of her yolks unless it indicates a deficiency or a sign of something wrong. She seems to eat the same foods as the other chicken...

    Hen with limp

    I'm having the same problem. My favorite little girl Pam starting limping about a week ago. We checked her foot, no sores, we tried giving her half a mini aspirin and that seemed to work a little bit so I'm thinking a sprain or something? But I hate to see her limping. She's still laying and...
