    4 week old golden comets

    Update: 21 weeks now one has been laying for three days, giving us a nice perfect egg each morning, the other comet has been squatting the past couple days.... think it’s safe to officially say they’re both hens

    Tapeworms????

    Thanks for the info, I will avoid B1 while treating with corid. They’re in the workshop portion of the basement so it’s a little warmer I have a fan pushing air but not pointed directly on them it was 81 in there prior to the fan I just have it on medium. I’ll be checking on them throughout the...

    Tapeworms????

    Yep I started corid already figured it can’t hurt and if they’re this bad now and it’s coccidiosis I don’t know how much longer they’d be able to go without treatment so I just went ahead and started treating the entire flock, also picked up B-12/vitamin k supplement (I know you shouldn’t give...

    Tapeworms????

    The older girls started off on medicated as well (a small bag x2 because they didn’t have big bags at the time when I got the chicks when those bags ran out I bought them a bag of natures best organic feed when that was gone I bought this bag because they were sold out from the natures best...

She was holding...

    Tapeworms????

    Unfortunately some of the poops we’ve been having aren’t included in that page like the yellow urates so I’ve been navigating that one on my own and anytime you put “yellow-chicken-urates” together in google you just get cecal poop info not urates

    Tapeworms????

    Thanks!!! I use this page all the time lol I know one of the best ways to keep track of your flocks health is to keep an eye on their stools because it usually tells more than their behavior since they hide illness and with how many different types of poo they have I’m always comparing to that...

    4 week old golden comets

    They’re about 9 weeks old now and no reason to believe they’re anything other than pullets, their feathers have come in with much more red, combs are pink/yellow still and no wattles

    Introducing new chicks

    Thank you for the reply I will try and let them mingle in 2 weeks supervised and see how it goes. This is the size difference between them right now. I fenced off 1/3 of the run from top to bottom using some yard stakes, heavy duty zip ties and thick plastic fencing with 2x4’s running along the...

    Introducing new chicks

    So I got 6 straight run 9 weeks ago, 4 weeks ago I knew 3 were going to turn out to be roosters based on many factors including bright red combs at 5 weeks old so on the day I moved them out of the brooder and into the coop I sanitized the brooder and went to TSC and bought 4 “pullets” because...

    4 week old golden comets

    So I know golden comets are sexlinked I got 2 at a certain feed store and they were labeled pullets they had the proper coloring and the stripes down their backs but as they’re getting older I’m wondering if they’re actually pullets or maybe they’re pullets but not actually golden...
