    What is this thing that my hen laid?

    I don't have EITHER of those things. I had some antibiotic left over from her bumble foot. It's SMZ-TMP 40 mg. I have it in her waterer at the moment. She is sorta putting up a fight when being handled, may be a good sign. Thanks for the input and I agree antibiotics at least for a week and...

    What is this thing that my hen laid?

    Hi y'all, I have a hen that I thought was egg bound yesterday. She has been fine up until yesterday doing normal chicken stuff and acting like a healthy hen should. Yesterday she was still on the roost when I went to let all of them out the morning. She is the FIRST out the door. She got down...

    Roosting on nesting boxes..

    My 4 Novogen hens have been moved to the "big girl coop" with my 6 month old red sex link hens. Now they have been together a week or so and the YOUNGER birds are roosting on the milk crate nesting boxes. I put them in the coop at night and they go to the roosting poles and jump up. When I put...

    Quarntine how long should this go on.

    Thank you for all the info. No they are different in sizes. My older hens are BIGGER and these young birds are about half their sizes. The pictures are the young Novogen hens. Scroll to top.

    Quarntine how long should this go on.

    They are 4 months old. Should i put them with my older birds? A MONTH, wow, they are in great health. Eating, drinking and doing chicken stuff. They are free ranging for the first time I think. My other hens are 6 months old. Will they teach these youngsters a thing or to?

    I have 4 Novogen hens that I bought on Saturday. They all look and act healthy. Not one has stopped eating, drinking, or doing chicken things. They are very active. I have had them in a coop away from my others hens for 4 days now. When should I put them with my other hens? Also, I think they...

    Thin shelled egg

    I have 2 laying red sex link hens and they are about six months old. I have noticed that my "youngster" hen started laying white, thin shelled eggs the past 2 days. I am giving the Layena feed, oyster shell, and wet mash since its HOT AND HUMID here in NC. She laid two soft shell eggs last week...

    How long should i quarentine my 4 new hens.

    I have 4 Novogen hens I bought today. I am not sure how healthy the flock they came from is but these hens look and feel healthy. They are eating and drinking. How long should they be quarantined from my other hens? 1 or 2 days or weeks? No signs of running noses, or anything of that nature...
