    They were thin and long and moving extremely slow, but they were alive, I'm thinking it is probably roundworm from what I have seen

    Found Worms in Chicken Poop!!! How to Treat it!?!?

    I dont have any pictures, but I found 2 large worms in one of my chickens poop. I have all ages in my flock and over 30 birds so there is no way to tell who has it. How do I go about treating the whole flock? This is my first time dealing with this in three years and I want to stop it now...

    Would you set these eggs under a broody?

    Give them a chance, maybe gi e her a few more of your eggs to sit on so after 10 day you can candle them and pull any that haven't developed, it's pretty obvious when there's no babies and then let nature take its course from there. I put 15 under my broody and I picked up 6 eggs from a local...

    First broody hen

    I just went through this. I separated mine (I had two go broody at the same time) from my understanding, once an egg is kept above a certain temperature for over 24 hours the baby starts to develop. If u want her to hatch out babies we pulled the eggs she was on for a few days to make sure...

    Momma hens keeps loosing babies, I need advise

    Thats what I'm thinking, there is no trace of them and I know when they get separated the babies scream, so after I search the yard and I dont hear a chick screaming I can only assume a hawk or other bird of prey got them.

    Momma hens keeps loosing babies, I need advise

    I am new to raising babies outside with a momma hen. I understand everything loves to eat baby chicks. They are 3 weeks old and I figured the moms would be better at keeping them safe. At what age do you let the moms out with the babies? I've lost 4 babies and I'm so frustrated. They are in...

    I think I have a rooster! (Yes I’m happy) what do you think

    Love the orpingtons, I would say you have a cockeral too! If the two are hatch mates and his waddles are already that big along with his comb then I say it's a pretty good chance you got a boy. Best of luck with your new flock!
