    Something wrong with my hen

    Noticed one of my hens lost some feathers around her head recently. Just looked her for mites. Didn’t see a single bug but her feathers are dirty like actual dirt under the feathers and she’s looking a little sparse. Everyone else seems good could she just be molting?

    Sneezing chicken

    I have a heater in their coop for cold nights thankfully it really hasn’t been that cold here. I’m going to supplement more vitamins and probiotics in their water see if that helps. If I need antibiotics can I just get them at tractor supply?
