    Help! Losing hens

    Okay, thanks! When you guys say ‘reproductive issue’ what exactly does that entail? And all 3 of my chickens could have the same issue at the same time? I’m just trying to narrow things down after I deworm and de-bug them and those don’t work

    Help! Losing hens

    Thank you for all of your help. I am going to treat for worms first. I bought the goat wormer today that you suggested. Then I will treat for mites/lice and go from there. Keeping fingers crossed 🤞🏻

    Help! Losing hens

    I buy a local feed from a local feed store/grain mill. Its 18% layer feed. They also have access to crushed oyster. For treats they get mealworms. Last egg laying was over a week ago

    Help! Losing hens

    Thank you for responding. I will get pics. The first hen who died was a golden Wyandotte. These two who are currently sick are an ISA brown and a Black Sex Link both from the same breeder. The Wyandotte was from another place. I’m not seeing any bloating that I can see. I will inspect more.

    Help! Losing hens

    Hi. I have a flock of 10 chickens. Some are close to 4 yrs old. I lost a hen a few months ago and we still don’t know the reason. She had a pasty dirty bottom, walked sort of bow legged, seemed lethargic. Was drinking and eating fine. I treated her for vent gleet, cleaned her bottom, etc. she...

    What is one thing you figured out about chickens that you wish you knew when you began?

    That they literally sh!t everywhere! And anywhere and your dogs will find it gourmet 🤢 And that they can and will destroy your garden/plants/flowers in nothing flat and use it as their dirt bath. Even though you made up their own really cool personal dirt bath…😐 lol

    Red laced blue Wyandotte

    Sorry, but asking again. I’m trying to make sure this is looking like a pullet and not a cockerel. She’s about 9-10 weeks, bit more. She really likes to strut around with her tail up high. She’s also getting more of a comb than the others, with one little bead. I don’t know much about this...
