I hope I do to. It's hard when you raise them and then they die before laying or when they start laying. A lot of money goes into it and no production.
No mold in food. I've had some die in summer, fall and winter so not specifically hot or cold. I treated with corrid even though there wasn't blood due to google searches. Treated with vitamins, and wormed. There isn't lead, paint chips or spills that I know of where they free range. I don't...
Last Spring I bought 7 black sex links and 7 calico princesses, all 8 to 10 weeks old. All of the calico princess slowly died one after the other. Their symptoms would be very wobbly when standing and their wings would catch them and butt in the air. They would still eat and drink. I've treated...
What was the outcome? I've had several chickens dies like this. I've tried corrid, vitamins, your name it nothing has worked. They seem to live for about a week, maybe, and then die. They still want to eat and drink too. It's bizarre
Most of my keets got the wing thing but grew out of it over a week ago. This one however is not growing out of it. I'm just nervous that if it gets stuck on its back outside I won't be able to find it. Hopefully it will grow out of it.

They are all the same age. Born end of June so they are new egg layers. I have kept fake eggs in the boxes. And real eggs stay in the box during the day until we get them out around 4pm during the week otherwise we collect them all day during the weekends.

Hi, I bought a Liege cockerel who was born in May 2020. My question is when will he become a rooster? His pea comb is still light pink and he's afraid of everything. I have an established flock of 10 hens and 5 guinea fowl. When I'm outside supervising the hens and guineas will go after him and...
