Our chickens are now laying eggs non-stop and everything is great with one small issue. One family member gets very severe diarrhea 2-3 hours after eating the fresh eggs, every time. There is no egg issues with store brought or having them out at a dinner, only the ones laid at home. Lost as...

It honestly got us very excited. I mean, it was not like it was a big surprise to find out a chicken laid an egg lol. Do the eggs get larger or are they pretty much the same size?

Almost feel punch drunk, sitting next to the chickens and the buffington was just sitting low to the ground. Then she started making a non-stop cluck fest. We are first timers, so I didn't know if something was wrong. I went to pet her and see if she was in pain. She stood up and left this....

A week later and they are all back to their crazy selves. Thanks for the recommendation of the Corid, seemed to do the trick real quick.

We see that wretched little terrain terrorists during the day. I have an air rifle and if they are in the clear.....they go to groundhog heaven. I stopped mowing the lawn near the shed about 2 months ago and the entry was under the shed. They hate the high grass. I've tossed peanut butter...

Recycled Concrete Aggregate...as in when they tear up the highway, they drop the big pieces into a grinder and you get small pieces out the back end of it. Where I am Dr. Arnett, it is a $5,000 fine to remove a groundhog from your property and drop it some place else, period. You cannot even...

You should be able to find the openings to the groundhog den pretty easily. They like overhead cover, like a shed or slab foundation. There are always two openings to their den. They are dormant/sleeping at night. I think they are miserable terrain terrorists. They are pretty territorial...

Noobs here with one each of Australorps, Dark Brahma, Gold Laced Wyandotte, Silver Laced Wyandotte, Buffington, and two Easter Eggers.

Maybe they fought it off on their own or something, but they all seem to be back to normal. I don't see it as 8 survived, just that one died. When I went to bury her, there was fresh blood from under her wing. We start giving them the apple cider vinegar yesterday, too.

How long does the Corid take to have an effect? It seems like it has a flavor to it. We put a 16 oz bottle with the Corid in it and it was 90% empty 20 minutes later.

Most of them have more oomph it seems. Four of them are walking around and making noises which has not occurred in a couple of days. Only one of them really seems to have not had any improvement, not counting the one that died. I just got a hold of some Corid 9.6% oral solution and trying to...

We are on the east end of Long Island and nothing is open really this time of the year. Some of the them seem to be bouncing back and being their usual skittish self. Two have become very very lethargic. Our first time with chickens and we are learning on the fly and have no prior knowledge...

They seemed to be doing well earlier and I just checked on them and one died. The others are looking horrible again. There is nothing in my area at all. We have to buy the stuff online. My wife is hysterical.

The corid should be here Monday afternoon. They are much more like chickens this morning, albeit have longer quiet times than normal. They are standing up and eating. Yesterday, they were just crouched down on the ground and barely ate anything at all. This morning they attacked some radish...

Ok, that is easy enough to do. I don't have Nutri-Drench, but can get Pedia-Lyte or Gatorade type of drink in the morning. Appreciate all the insight and recommendations. It would be horrible to lose them.

I was just looking on one of the sites regarding the cocci and they don't seem to have many of the symptoms they say to look for, other than some whitish diarrhea. I am getting the Amprulium anyway, but is there anything else I should get as a preventative?

I am ordering Amprolium now, but it will not be here until Monday. How aggressive is cocci, if it is that?

very rainy, thunderstorms for much of the last 5 or 6 days. They usually freak out when food is being given to them, the last two days, they barely moved. Outside today, they didn't really eat at all. Threw a bunch of pickings from the garden in there and most of it is still on the ground...

Their droppings seem to be white and runny I just noticed. They have barely eaten today, too. They seem to be drinking water with no problem.

This is our first time with chickens. They are about 3.5 months old and have been rambunctious for the most part. When someone walks by, the make all kinds of noise, the presence of food has them raising a ruckus from hell, etc... Since yesterday, they seem to have been sedated. They walk...
