    Which Chickens to get for new flock?

    I’d actually get a California White or similar heat tolerant bird. This bird is a bit flighty, but is pretty good layer.

    What breed of bird should I get for show next year?

    well if you’re going to show a bird, and are wanting to meet APA Standards of Perfection, you won’t want to get a bird from the mass hatcheries, as they usually are not the greatest of the breed. Look for a breeder that specializes in a breed you want from the APA website.

    Hens shaking heads at night

    Most of my hens are shaking their heads repeatedly as they get settled at night, almost as if they have itchy ears. I’m not sure what is going on. I had two thoughts: (a) gape worm or (b) respiratory infection. If (a), what medication (in U.S.) would work? Should I try to swab one of their...

    Ended Official BYC Mini Contest - What is Your Hobby?

    I am a philatelist. For those who don’t know Latin, it means stamp collector. I collect a number of different countries (US and Canada includes), but by far my most favorite collection is Hens on Stamps. I’m working now on assembling a collection that I hope to exhibit at stamp shows this next...

    Tylan 50 injection dosage

    I guess it does feel like air more than fluid. I can take some photos in a bit.

    Kind of all over. She feels bloated and squishy in her body and her head is is swollen.

    Tylan 50 injection dosage

    Tylan 50. So I CAN give it to her orally? That would be great as she is really full of fluid and I was having a hard time finding a suitable spot for injection. And boy is that stuff hard to pull into a syringe! Does the rest of my treatment plan sound okay?

    Tylan 50 injection dosage

    Apparently oral Tylan is no longer available in the US, so we have to use as an injectable. Weird, right? I have one banty Silver Sebrights that is super swollen and sick, so I injected her tonight with the 1/4 ml and if she lives, I’ll keep on dosing her with that and NutriDrench and extra...

    Heating plate vs heating lamp

    I got 25 babies this week and have suffered an astonishing 11 deaths in the space of 3 days! I am heartbroken! I have a nearly identical setup to yours and although this is my 4th set of babies, I’ve never had this high a die off. The first one drowned and another just passed. There was also one...
