I didn’t say food was coming out. I wasn’t clear. Water came out. I said I had removed food. I did for 12 hours. This included the rice. She only had 3 peaks of rice before it was removed. I appreciate your knowledge but it sounds like you are yelling. As I read, I’m learning. I’m...
I found our Silver Lace in a corner with her feathers all fluffed. I picked her up and she seemed thinner than normal. She wasn’t eating with the other girls. The hard freeze was hitting so brought her inside along with another hen with a hurt foot.
She had watery stools. Her crop felt full...
Old farmers tie a chicken to the dogs collar and make the dog wear it for a day or two. My sister who has four dogs did this and the dog(s) never touched another chicken. Better to lose one then all.

What is this? Is it part of the egg? Found it while cleaning the egg boxes.
Hoping it is and not something worse. It is rubbery with clear liquid inside.
I’m having the same problem. I keep them in until 2. Lots of water and on Purina pellets. My camera showed raccoons walking around but they can’t and didn’t get in. I caught Rhode Island “Red” eating 1 yolk of an egg. Leaving the shell almost intact. They have plenty of free calcium and...
