    Treats for baby chicks

    Hi! I’m looking to give my baby chicks some treats, they’re about four weeks old. They’re being raised in the brooder inside so they haven’t gotten any grit yet, we’re waiting till about 8 weeks. Until then, is there anything they can have that they won’t need grit for? Thanks!

    Red Flaky Skin

    The only time she really lays down during the day is to dust bathe. She roosts on a high perch at night. She’s about finished with her treatment, we have her foot wrapped just to be cautious.

    Skinny chicken

    Her droppings and her crop are normal. She’s so picky, we’ve tried tuna, chicken, eggs, but we haven’t tried dog food. She’s not eating a lot of her regular food and the only thing she’s really going for is sunflower seeds and mixed treat grains.

    Skinny chicken

    She’s about two years old and hasn’t layed in months. The vet didn’t take an x ray but was feeling around and that’s when he popped it and said it was out of joint and felt it pop back in. Since then she’s been walking so much better. He said it was possible another hen may have jumped on her...

    Black Copper Maran and Oliver Eggers

    Hi all. I'm thinking about adding a Black Copper Maran and an Oliver Egger to my flock. I have a Blue Maran, but I read that Black Copper Marans aren't heat hardy. I live in West Tn, Zone 7. Is there any reason a Black Copper Maran would be any less heat hardy than a Blue Copper Maran? I keep...

    Sick hens? Need help!

    This is only happening when they drink their water, was it the same for your flock? I’m glad yours are all ok! Is VetRx and nutridrench something you need to have a vet prescribe to you? Or is it something you can give regularly to give them an extra boost even when they’re feeling fine? We’re...

    Sick hens? Need help!

    They’re all acting normally, all eating and drinking fine, they’re all running around like normal and playing with their enrichment activity toys, they’re not acting droopy. I’m hoping it’s just the weather, and that it will pass soon! Thank you!

    Want your opinions!

    We currently have a pre-fab coop from TSC and we are praying it stays up thru winter! Looking at sheds that we can convert to a nice coop- wondering thoughts on wood vs the plastic ones or vinyl siding? Would love to see pictures of converted sheds. We are on a tight budget but want to go as...
