    1 Bully chicken in the coop at night

    Oh wow, I’m really hoping things will continue to go well, the bully is right now walking up the garden with her new best friends! These are the 4 gingernuts she has been picking on, keeping my fingers crossed for continued improvement 😍 and they've all just been chasing our Rhode Rock Hen paxo...

    1 Bully chicken in the coop at night

    Today here has been very windy, the chickens have been quite spooked and running up and down the garden and huddling up together, no bullying, just keeping each other warm, it gets dusky around 4pm (16:00) here, I watched Speckledy (the bully) carefully, we have a light that we can switch on and...

    1 Bully chicken in the coop at night

    Thank you Sue, we’ve talked about dividers, although I think she’s that much of a bully, she’d probably just jump down and go round to the other side, jump up and throw them off, but we can try though ...

    1 Bully chicken in the coop at night

    Hi Mary, Thank you for responding, I’ve attached a picture of the coop and inside the coop right now, it’s dark here, we have 9 hens in total, typically the oldies roost high on the other side and the Newbies roost together on the lower roost on the other side, Speckledy goes up to the high...

    hi guys, hoping for some help, we introduced 4 Gingernut rangers to our flock of now 5 hybrid hens 2 months ago, there was some chasing off of the newbies initially but nothing too bad, the only issue we have is our Speckledy hen is really mean in the coop at night, everyone comes in roosts gets...

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    Aww no problem, they all still seem well, very stressful worring about them, along with everything else that is going on in the world right now. My husband has his office at the bottom of our garden and he sent me this picture yesterday, 2 of them had climbed on to the back of the garden bench...

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    Thanks for your help, it's been a week since she was put to sleep, and the other 9 chickens seem well at the moment, but I'm keeping a close eye on them.

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    Thank You, they don't seem to ship to the UK, I now have the tablet version, which is a 15mg tablet, if any of the others do get poorly, I guess I could crush this and add to water and syringe into them? Do you think that would be ok? It says for Pigeons, 15mg/kg (1kg=2.2lbs) of bird weight...

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    Hi guys, we got the initial post mortum results back for Nando, the lab says they found an infection in the air sacks (that will probably explain the soft puffy crop) and septicemia, the lab is doing a couple of extra tests and a culture, and are testing for a virus as well. I'm a little upset...

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    They certainly do, I've read and learned so much over the last few days about them, which is good and going forward will be beneficial to our other 9 chickens 💕

    Could my chicken have Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    Thanks everyone for being so helpful and kind, it's really helped, we're just crossing our fingers the others are ok, we're keeping a close eye on them, the post mortem results will hopefully provide some information. I'll let everyone know on here when they come back. 💕
