Hi everyone. I've just lost 2 of my hens, they were my favorite girls too. 5 days ago my first girl died. at first we thaught that perhaps she had had an injury due to a falling piece of roofing from enclosure, she had aslo been having a problem with eggs - either shelless or very thin...

I have 4 hens, a Barred Plymouth Rock, Red New Hampshire, Blue Wyandotte, & an Ameraucana all are 28 weeks old, 3 of them have been laying daily since they each started. my 4th girl, the Ameraucana has been going in and sitting on the nest everyday for a week but has not produced any eggs. She...

How does this game work?

I looked up the laws/ordinances for poulty in San Luis Obispo, CA - found 1 listing for San Louis Obispo & 1 for San Luis Obispo - the correct Spelling for the City/County is San Luis Obispo, CA. I also noted that each had a slightly different allowance one was 20 & the other was 25. Housing...

I spoke with my Vet this morning. He said the 2 stool samples that he ran did show definate coccidiosis. His thought was that perhaps the kidneys had been affected/damage thus the reason for the quick down hill turn. So even though no bloody diarrhea or even diarrhea was noted it would pay...

I have some sad news to report, my pullet didn't make it, I found a local source for the Corid but she was to far gone, I put her down this afternoon. Just got an e-mail from a vendor that I had ordered some waterers from. It just happened to talk about Coccidious so thaught I would pass it on...

Skypatrol your research encouraged me to do more research myself. I found another site worth looking at on how to manage a flock to treat & prevent a major coccidia problem. It also recomments the use of Corid over Sulmet. http://www.attra.ncat.org/attra-pub/coccidiosis.html#natural

I've read that yogurts acts as a probiotic - I use the plain greek style yogurt. The girls really like & I use it only as a treat at this point maybe 1 Tablespoon/5 birds.

thanks for the in put. I finally decided to contacted the person that I got the pullets from, he said it sounded like Coccidiosis & that I should try sulmet in the water. however I have not been able to locate a local supplier. one supplier said they haven't been able to get it lately. Will...

I purchased 5 - 3 month old pullets from the local poultry club a month ago. up until 2 weeks ago they were all doing well eating, drinking, in general very active. Then 1 of the girls started to act a little listless & walked around hunched up but still eating & drinking, Stools appear...
