    Is isolation normal!?

    i went out today and noticed my jersey giant hen (8 MO) sitting in the dust bath, not really moving. I picked her up and she only refused a little. After watching her for a while I noticed she walked away from everyone else to lay down. Zero interest in greens, just sits there. I took a video...

    Sudden death

    Thank you for your post. I’m not quite ready to do a necropsy myself, but maybe if it happens to another lady. She was only 11 months old, and the 11th lady in the bunch. :hit

    Sudden death

    Yeah I’m aware a necropsy would provide the most information. I guess I’m also wanting to hear some causes of sudde death. I’m sure there’s many. But then I can educate myself on them for the future.

    Sudden death

I’m a veterinary technician so I’ve dealt with my fair share of death but I seriously can’t handle losing these ladies!!:hit This morning I went out to let the ladies free roam and found my Blue Andalusian dead in the dust...

    Coyote attack

    Thank you so much for your words. I will not be as careless for now on and I’m finishing the fence as I type. I know it may sound foolish and might not work but I’m going to string bells (jingle bells) several feet from the fence line, around the perimeter of my property to help alert both me...

    Thinking about getting PDZ but have questions

    I love your set up! Do you recommend having ramps up to the roosts or just personal preference? I don't have any but lately have been thinking I want one. They don't have any issues jumping up to the tray, then the roosting branch but..it just seems easier for them to have a ramp. What wood /...
