    Question about combs

    I have an olive Egger roo whose comb is so big and heavy it hangs to the side and totally blocks his right eye. Is that a problem I should mess with?

    Need advice please

    Thanks all! I put her back in the old spot and she’s happy as can be. She’s been kicking out eggs that aren’t developing or aren’t fertile so I’ll watch a few days and see what she does

    Need advice please

    I was at work. Checked on her at 9 and then at 6. She hasn’t been bothered by others laying where she was sitting. I moved her back and she kept sitting. I may try moving her down a couple boxes and move the eggs too. She’s serious about her business. She plucked herself bald and everything...

    Need advice please

    Hi! We’ve had a broody sitting on 8 eggs for a week. I canceled some and they’ve developed in the last couple days. Others have been laying eggs in the same nest box and I take the new ones out every day. She’s been doing great. Sometime between 9 and 6 today she left the nest box and went one...

    Broody hen

    I'm worried if I move her she may not go back to any of them? I'm thinking I could build something to section of a small part of the coop. I have a separate coop but worry about separating then re-integrating. If I sectioned off some coop it would shrink the footage per chicken indoors but they...

    Broody hen

    Mine are on a non layer feed with oyster shells as well. She is currently setting in the most popular box so maybe I should move her to one of the ones nobody uses?

    Broody hen

    Hey all! I have a one year old BO who has decided to go broody. She is laying on a hefty stack of eggs as I missed getting them picked up before she started sitting. I don’t want to disturb her so I haven’t done anything with her yet. I’m new to broody hens. Do I need to separate her/the chicks...

    Feeling defeated

    Hey all! I need some (more) advice please. Based on symptoms and how this all started and the fact that some improvement was achieved with Baytril, I believe my flock of 17 have mycoplasma. I treated them for 7 days and at the end all those that were sick seemed (and still do seem) fine. I left...

    Syringe feeding

    Okay all....this chicken has be bagged. The sickly one is acting much perkier and gave me quite the argument trying to feed her last night. She seems much less lethargic and is not congested now. Yet she is still hanging in the coop all day and not eating (or if she is it’s not enough to fill...

    Syringe feeding

    That’s a good idea! She wouldn’t even eat scrambled eggs. All my girls (and the roo) usually go crazy for eggs. It’s tough because ik Just so darned attached to them 🤷‍♀️

    Syringe feeding

    Update- I syringe fed Emerson 120 (ish) milliliters of Pedialyte mixed with her dose of Baytril. She had a lot more argument with it tonight which was nice to see. She went to bed with a crop full of water so I know she is hydrated till Tomorrow. The other girls that haven’t been well are much...

    Syringe feeding

    The vet recommended I not try tubing her and syringe feed instead. I will try to give her some fluid and see if she perks up. The rest that have been ill have improved overnight after drinking the baytril water but she seems uninterested in eating or drinking anything. I’ve accepted that I may...

    Syringe feeding

    How much water can I syringe feed a chicken at one time? I have a sickly that won’t eat or drink. We’re treating with meds the vet gave right now so I need her to get fluids for the meds as well as the hydration

    Help please!!

    I uncrusted her left nostril and her eye opened a bit. The vet (farm animal specialist in the area) gave her baytril and gave me antibiotics for the water bowl to treat them all. He also tube fed her some liquid feed to tide her over for the night. She’s still swollen but not quite as bad and...
