    Dirty Chicken Butt

    Does broodynees just last for a couple of weeks and then she’s back to normal or do I need to get fake eggs or any special supplement for her?

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    So update, I washed my RIR this morning nd she came out of the coop but went back in a few minutes later nd she was sitting outside of both next boxes in the corner, I made her get up and she was sitting on 8 eggs!! I thought none of my girls were laying much but I guess this girl has been...

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    They are pretty gum-like, so I'll probably be better off just getting the regular ones it seems.

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    I currently only have the chewy tab tums that I could break apart and offer her, still extra strength, would that work too or should I get the regular?

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    Hahah, chicken love is a unique type of love!!! But okay thanks, sounds good! I'm hopeful that's not the case and with the clean butt tonight, de-wormer, and probiotics tomorrow she'll start to feel better. I'll get myself some tums as well, thank you again I feel a little more at ease about the...

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    Thank you so very much for the response! I never would have thought I'd be bathing a chicken in my bathtub and blowdrying her! lol and with the tums, do you just crush one tab and offer it to her or is it a certain brand you use?

    Dirty Chicken Butt

    Hello all, I have three 7 month old chickens, one 7 month old khaki campbell duck, and one 2 1/2 year old buff orpington hybrid. They are all female. For the past couple days my Rhode Island Red has had a very poopy butt. I thought it was something that would clear up on its own, but today I was...

    Chicken laying eggs on the ground

    Will I have to keep her in the run forever? And I don't know how to clip wing feathers, people do that themselves? I just don't get why out of all the birds she is the only one who continues to jump the fence every day even when being put back.

    Chicken laying eggs on the ground

    So one of my chickens that is about 5 months old has began to lay, but for some reason she is laying outside on the ground instead of in the coop. I am located in Michigan and it is fairly cold here, so we weren't expecting her to lay until about 6 months old and definitely not until warmer...

    1 duck in a flock of 4 chickens?

    I know you posted this in September and it is now January so not sure if you have already moved along in your decision, but I personally have 3 chickens and 1 duck that I raised together from hatchlings that are 4 months old now and have always gotten along just fine. I have one Rhode Island...

    Thank you so very much this is so helpful!! In regards to the feed, I currently feed them Purina Grower feed along with a small portion of scratch and veggies like apples, carrots, collard greens and occasional fruits along with meal worms here and there. I do the grower only because the bags...

    Vacinations

    Hello all, I have three month old chickens and one three month old duck that I got from TCS as chicks. I was wondering if you are supposed to vaccinate your livestock or routinely de-worm if you are going to eat them at some point or even for harvesting the eggs? Or if there are any natural ways...

    Easter Egger Rooster

    I am located in Saginaw Michigan, and I need to re home my 3 month old rooster. I got 4 chicks from tractor supply that were supposed to all be hens, but this one turned out to be a rooster! He has not started crowing yet, and started to show some mild human aggression by pecking my hands when I...

    That is very true. Understandable that in her defense, the woman was just doing her job and what she was told.

    Thank you so much for the information. I find it to be most frustrating that the woman at Tractor Supply really lead on like she knew exactly what she was talking about, and that all the chicks given to us were for sure hens. We were excited that "Mrs. Tweedy", as we had been calling it, had...
