    Silkie with weird disease/condition, please help.

    Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. I did start her on the Vit E daily, and it actually is very easy to pill a chicken, at least with the gel caps! Go figure! I have been giving her egg, I probably didn't mention that. I'm going to start her on the Vit B complex tomorrow. So far she's been...

    Silkie with weird disease/condition, please help.

    Thank you very much! I just ordered some vitamins. It seems to be nutritionally related. So weird that it worsens at night. I've never given a pill to a chicken, aren't those Vit E pills huge?

    Silkie with weird disease/condition, please help.

    No mushrooms. My girls don't free range. I do have an enclosed area that I will let then out of the runs occasionally, but there are definately no mushrooms there. What's weird is that it happens at night.

    Silkie with weird disease/condition, please help.

    Starter/grower (I had a rooster so that's what I fed them all) with supplemental oyster shells and grit. Occasional scratch. I've only been giving her more scratch and mealworms during the times this happens. I've been giving her Nutridrench once a week since she got better.

    Silkie with weird disease/condition, please help.

    So my Silkie, Big Bird, is 6 and a half. She is vaccinated for Marek's, and I've had her since she was a day old. A few months ago, she started doing this occasionally. At night I would find her outside in the run, laying on her back, unable to get up. I would pick her up, put her in the coop...

    Mille fleur d'uccles

    Ha, now I know for sure that MyPetChicken gets their chicks (or at least their d'uccles) from Meyer, because 7 available just popped up on their site too, and they have been out of them forever!

    Mille fleur d'uccles

    Meyer has them! I just ordered several. What you have to do is put in "notify me" with your email for when they are available, and then they send you an email when there are some available. They usually sell out ridiculously fast, within minutes. So you have to repeat this every time so you get...

    d'Uccle Cult

    Hi, may I join the cult of d'uccles? I too love them, my favorite chicken of all time is a delicious 6 yo MFD named Flower (original, I know). I have been wanting more for years...got a couple a few years back from a local breeder but they died at several weeks of age. I have been unsuccessful...

    Mille fleur d'uccles

    I feel your pain! I too love MFDs, I have one who is 6 and I NEED some more...I am in NJ and they are nowhere to be found. None of the local breeders or any of the big mail order hatcheries (or MPC) have any in stock...I found one that has them but you need to buy a minimum of like 20 or 25...

    Does anyone here have any contact info for Ryan's Roost in Galloway, or would be able to get in touch with her to give her my contact info? It seems she is only a Facebook DM contact, and I am not on FB (I even tried to creat a FB page just so I could contact her, but they suspended my account...

    New Jersey

    It's nice to meet you! I was actually on here a long time ago, 6 or 7 years ago...but life got in the way. This is a great area to have chickens, half the people where I live have them, there are lots of roosters, and nobody cares. It's great!

    Jersey Girl from Bayville saying hi! I have a small flock of Ayam Cemanis, Silkies, Seramas, a Mille Fleur D'Uccle and a Brahma bantam. Sadly, my rooster recently died. All my girls are old and not laying. I'm getting some babies in a couple months from MPC, can't wait!!! I also have 3 beloved...

    I was browsing the thread and I saw that Chickassan had died. That is heartbreaking! She was such an awesome soul, her posts always cracked my ass up, she was so funny and silly and positive. Her little gnomes. That is so freaking sad....she was too cool and too young to die. That makes me so...

    Hi Moly! So good to see you! Oh man. I currently have 10 hens, no roosters. My girls are all getting old and they all stopped laying! It used to kill me to buy eggs, but I just resigned myself to it (and, I just ordered 4 day olds to come in a couple months from MPC, yay!) I still have 4...
