Hi, sorry I stopped being active on this website! I had a similar issue. We tried feeding coconut oil, gave epsom salt baths, gave applesauce, yogurt, all that jazz. We even made a trip on bike to get some chick feed, whereas before we had been feeding mushed up layer feed. Nothing seemed to fix...
I’m just using scrambled eggs, which was suggested to me on a different thread. Also, my mother did some research into chick starter... apparently layer feed only has about 3% more calcium and in chicken feeds the calcium measurement is give or take as much as 5%. Is this accurate?
Her vent is...
Shes is about a little more than a week. We got them from a woman that hatched them a week ago today, and they were a few days old at that point.
She seems to be drinking well, I’ve watched her drinking and she seems to do it as much as the others.
She is unfortunately not on chick starter, my...
Well, I’m sure you can tell what my ailment is considering the title of this post. She strains to poop and chirps whenever she is feeling uncomfortable with that. She does manage to go but only after a very long time of struggling. This has been going on for about 4 1/2 days now. Here’s what...
Thank you mods!! You are amazing. Without you (and all of the awesome contributors), I would be lost and maybe have more chick issues on my hands! I’ve managed to treat my sick chick and find a new community in a matter of days- BECAUSE OF YOU!! :bow:love:hugs:ya:D
:hitUgh Im so sorry. My news hasn't announced a death yet, but Massachusetts case numbers are exploding faster than NYC, they say. There are 144 confirmed cases in my area, so I’m sure the death toll will start growing soon. It’s so... scary? Stressful? Absolutely horrifying?
One thing people...
Oh whoops. Maybe I’m just craving cinnamon buns right now.
That’s awesome, good on you. We also reacted before everyone else here due to our family being extremely at-risk, but only by about 4-5 days. I sure am glad, though. A ton of people have it around here now. We bleach the house once a...
Definitely agree. Sometimes people I talk to point out the swift recovery of certain countries such as South Korea, but if you compare them with America you will see that Americans will not have the same experience. Americans, on average, are a lot less healthy. Americans are also very proud of...
Hi, I am located in Western Mass but thought it would be good to create one for New England as a whole, because often one state has necessary resources that another one doesn't/it’s closer to just go to the other state. Share resources, solutions to things we deal with here in NE (unpredictable...
Wow.. that hits home...
Once you start to have some sort of connection to a person that has it, it totally changes how you think about it. It’s not “I hope nobody I know gets it” it’s “I hope they don’t die”. I know someone through the vine that has it, and he’s a kid so his parents who are even...
