Thank you.

I can try. Should I wait to try the coconut oil then?

I have a 2 week old Welsummer Pullet. She has been doing great until up until 48 hours ago. I noticed trouble with her being able to poop. She struggles and drops her wings and does get out a small amount that is dry and hard. She is acting ok otherwise. I read the threads posted on here and it...

He gave me Fenbendazole. He said to repeat it in a month. Our coop is on the edge of a wooded area, so lots of worms. I’ve noticed that my ducks are starting to lose weight now too. I’ll be weighing them today and calling in for a wormer for them too. I’m thinking of layering sand and pea gravel...

I would just take a poop sample to my vet then?

I had a hen who was ill and extremely thin. I thought she had waterbelly but it turns out she was egg bound. The vet pulled a huge tapeworm out of her rear end. I have since dewormed the rest of my flock once with dewormer from the vet. I am to repeat it in 30 days. My hens are nothing but bones...

I have a hen I think is egg bound. Not really sure. Here is a picture of her bottom. Can you tell what’s going on? It looked like she had a lot of poop stuck to her butt

No we have checked into it. I live where they have a village board and all 5 members of the board voted for the 7 day limit. Rehoming 2 roosters in 7 days especially if you have a number of people looking for homes.

I need to find a home for 2 Black Asian roosters. They are almost 2 years old. My town passed an ordinance of no roosters and they are giving us 7 days before they start fining and confiscating birds. If someone could help we are located in Nebraska.

Been checking them frequently but I’ll keep on the look out for changes.

I feel that they were grieving the loss. They are just now getting back to somewhat normal activity but still no eggs.

Good to know! Thank you!

Thank you! It was very sad to lose him. He was a sweetheart and treated his girls well. Going to miss him. I’ve been keeping a close eye on the girls so hopefully it was nothing contagious.

I’m not sure. Checked him over really well and couldn’t find anything unusual. Nares were clean. Feet were in good shape. Talked to our vet and he said that Jumbo Pekins are prone to heart problems with their size and weight but I noticed nothing unusual the day before. Eating, swimming, wooing...

Just looking for some input since my ducks have stopped laying. I had 4 Jumbo Pekins. 3 hens and a drake. All seemed to be in perfect health and are about 1 1/2 years old. About 5 days ago I went out to the duck house and found my drake dead. He looked like he had went to sleep and just died...

Thank you that makes me feel a lot better.

Hello! This is my first molt with my hens. They seem to be getting rather thin and have stopped laying. I noticed large amounts of feathers were list quickly. I have one hen who still hasn’t gotten any feathers around her vent. Is this normal or is there something wrong?

Thank you! Worth a try!

Thank you for the advice!

I lost a hen today. Found her in the nest box and she appeared to have been smothered. She was actually squished flat. Poor thing. I’ve had problems with my hens fighting over the same nest box even though there are several available. I’ve seen them 3 deep in one box. Has anyone else had a...
