I have now realised my wording is bad. Grain and layer mash makes up the majority of her diet, the other things listed are only treats, She does not get them daily. The feed given does have grit mixed into it and we do feed their eggshells back to them. Would that be enough or should I provide...

Hello, chicken world! Its been so long since I've had a sick chook, I was hoping to keep my streak up! I have an approximately 1.5-year-old Belgian D'uccle weighing around300-400g. She has been having some crop issues for a while now and I have run out of ideas to fix them. First, I thought...

Hello everyone and thank you for all the help so far. So to address the questions asked. Yes, we adopted a pekin about a month ago. It probably wasn't the best time to get her as squeak was still recovering from coccidiosis but she really needed a home. With in an hour of having her, driving...

So I am back again asking a question about my poor chookie, Squeak. Here's some back story on her recent health. About a month ago she had a stool sample that came back positive for coccidiosis. She was treated with coccivet. I've also been giving her oregano oil in water once daily as a natural...

Hello all. I guess chicken health and I have not been getting on to well recently which sucks. Just treated my whole flock for coccidiosis and now this :mad::he. Today I adopted a beautiful pekin named Frenchie. Her best friend died during a storm and she was lonely. As I have so many bantams I...

Thank you to everybody that tried to help me, I appreciate it very much! I took a stool sample to the vet today and turns out she does have coccidiosis. I have bought all the things needed to treat her and the rest of the flock. Lets hope she gets all better! :wee:fl

I haven't gone to a vet yet as the vets in my are aren't too great with birds. I do plan to as some of theses diseases can occur in cattle e.c.t. and they may know about them from them. She won't eat any seed sadly. Im going to try her on some egg and yogurt and hope she'll eat that today! She...

So before hand she was eating yogurt, bread, rice, oats and scrambled eggs; all with vitamins in them. After a while she has stopped eating everything all together and for some reason only eats apples. I know they aren't the BEST thing for her to be eating but I thought it'd be better her eating...

Hello again! Maybe a week and a half ago I posted on here about my sick hen. I gathered some great advise from some very informative people here. I thought that I had cured her. Well fast forward to now. She is not eating many different foods, mostly only apples. She isn't drinking much. I've...

Thankyou so much for this information!! I'll get her to the vet as soon as possible and make sure none of my hens go anywhere near those grubs! I really do appreciate your help :wee

No I don't have any Nutri Drench. Just did a google search. Looks like that'll be my next purchase :lol: I've been giving her a multivitamin for humans called Penta-vite. I also hope they can help me!!

Thanks for the advise so far! I am in Australia. The weather is currently hot with a temperature of 25-30 degrees Celsius (77-86 F). I was meant to put her age in the description but forgot :( She is around a year and a half old. Never been vaccinated as she was hatched here. Her crop is...

Hello. Recently (within the past 5 days) one of my hens (unsure of the breed) us come down ill. Im not too sure if its super serious. She is very lethargic; only standing still, keeping her eyes closed. She is barely eating. I have offered her a scrambled egg with vitamins mixed in. She refused...

As I am new here, I shall introduce myself. I have been owning chickens since 2014, when I bought my first 4 hens (Isa Browns and Austrolaup X New Hampshires). I loved them very much. Since their purchase I have fell in love with chickens and have bought many more. Currently I own 10 chickens. 2...
