I have checked for mites - none. Their coop is clean but wasn’t as good as it should have been through the winter and this latest flooding. I will be better from now on! There are 8 roosting boxes for 6 hens and 13 teen hens ( they still don’t go in the coop ) They have a very large run with...

So, here is a pic. Yesterday she had some runny white poo hanging off her feathers. Today it’s just yucky and matted.

I am very sure that one of my hens has vent gleet. Tomorrow I will be giving her an epsom salt bath and putting monistat (or something similar) on her vent. I will also put ACV in her water. Any other suggestions? Also, do I really have to separate the poor thing? I’ve read that I need to.

The rooster was born in an incubator and grew up here. He was introduced (with another hen and rooster) to my flock when old enough last July or August. So, he’s been with this hen for 8 or 9 months. I’ve never seen him be a jerk to any other hen. I have given away my other rooster. He is in...

One of my hens recently healed up from being attacked by other chickens in the coop. Not sure who it was. She has been out of the coop for about a month but has been just outside the chicken run every day. I even took her in there to hang out once. Yesterday, I tried to do the official...

i have a hen that has healed up nicely after being attacked by another chicken. I’m not sure who picked on her or if it was all of them. She has been allowed to hang out around the chicken run as she healed and now that her scabs are gone I have allowed her to go in the coop while I monitor. My...

What do you feed Mosey2003? Do you give your roosters anything different? It would be a little challenging for me to do that because their all in the same coop and run.

This is interesting 123RedBeard. What do you usually feed your hens and roosters?

So, they actually don’t have loose droppings. Somebody does but I don’t know which one. 99% of the poo piles in there are solid and normal looking.

So I noticed several of my girls don’t have perfectly clean vents. Their feathers aren’t terribly messy but I don’t want vent gleet to get going. I started adding ACV to their water and giving everybody plain yogurt in the morning. This isn’t going to cause any issue right? ALSO, they LOVE the...

Haha thanks duludthralphie!

Rjohns39 I tried editing from the beginning but it wouldn’t let me Silly! I’ve edited other posts I’ve made in the past. Oh well! Thanks

So on my original post I didn’t answer all of the questions. In hopes of winning this calendar I went back and answered all the questions. Fingers crossed https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/intro.1295876/page-2#post-21089336

Okay I didn’t answer all of the questions and I’d like to win that awesome calendar so here goes try #2... hopefully this doesn’t break the rules :) (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I met my husband over three years ago and he already had them. So, that’s when my...

I just want to update everyone whom has helped - my roo, Chippy is doing a little better. His crow is a little bit louder and he isn’t constantly wheezing. He still wheezes if he runs around too much. He is still moving around and eating as normal. I think he’s going to be just fine in the end...

Thanks Wyorp Rock!

Thank you so much for all of your help. I really appreciate it.

I wasn’t sure if people would see the video.

I figured out YouTube and here is the link to the video? Do you think I should make a new thread?

Thank you so much for this list!
