    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    I will look into getting a necropsy for her. The lab I found in my state does them, but I'll have to see how exactly it's going to work with the shipping and such. When we found herd dead, her comb was extremely pale, almost white, and there was liquid coming out of her mouth. Could that have...

    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    Update 2: This morning, Big Bird died suddenly. After about two months of not laying and looking pretty ill, last week her comb had gotten a lot more red, her feathers had become softer, and she had started laying very healthy eggs; she even layed one yesterday. I thought she had gotten better...

    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    Just wanted to give an update on Big Bird(our BO). I know it's been a while, and I probably should've given an update sooner, but I really wanted her to get completely better after worming her.

    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    If it's not necessary to do a fecal float test before worming them, then I think I will plan on doing that as soon as I stop by TSC the next couple of days. My chickens have never been wormed before, so, like you said, now is a good time to do so. Thank you again for the tips:thumbsup

    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    Thank you so much for the replies and the information. @Sally PB, your profile says you live not very far from me, so I was wondering if you were familiar with the Animal Emergency Hospital in Cascade? That is where we went last month, and when I filled out an introductory form there, I had no...

    What's wrong with my Buff Orpington?

    Our eight month old BO recovered from a mystery illness about a month ago, where the vet couldn't even figure out what was going on, and now I fear that she is becoming ill again:( She has been the first one to roost for the past few days, and I'm not even sure if she's been laying eggs. She's...

    Introduction to mittenchicken

    Hello, this is mittenchicken! I created this account a few months ago in case I ever needed to "consult" this website for chicken advice or just read some interesting things about them, but I had never gotten around to writing my introduction until now, so here I am:D We got our chickens...
