Hello! Long story short I may need to move my flock to a families farm. No one lives there daily but the property is visited 2-3 times a week. My concern is in the hot summer months or in the dead of winter the eggs will get too hot or freeze. Their nesting boxes will be in a barn that does...

Is there anything I can do to help alleviate symptoms? Are the eggs ok to eat? This has been my go to as a cause. At first I was concerned with Avian Flu but they don't seem to be that sick based on my research.

I need help figuring out what to do for my chickens. I have called all around town and I can't find anyone that sees chickens. Once vet does but can't get us in for over 3 weeks. About 4 weeks ago one of my chickens had a nasal discharge and sneezing. Eventually it has gotten to all of our...

I spray it all over the coop when I change out bedding. I have never had issues before but it concerns me now that she is stretching her neck and looks like she is yawning ... then shakes her head. This all following nasal discharge.

I do use DE and we do have AI in our state. It is a bit far from me but we do. Today she isn’t sneezing but is gapping and shaking her head a little. I also noticed one of my other ones now shaking her head a little. Maybe it’s gapeworms?

I have one hen that has some nasal discharge and I believe she is sneezing. She is laying and eating fine. She seems to be active and watched her poop today and the droppings looked normal. I’m freaking out because of this avian flu thing going around. I don’t have a local vet to take her to and...

Well it is hard to say if the others are affected or not since it has been warm and I am just used to seeing them with their mouths open trying to cool down. Today wasn't nearly as hot as it has been the last week or two. She was out walking around fine this morning and then by evening she...

It has been pretty darn hot the last few weeks. We make it a point to get the bully hens out of the coop at least twice a day while allowing the 3 younger hens run in the run and have as much access to food and water. They have recently been roaming around the run together more and allowing more...

I just lost a 22 week old pullet. I came out a few hours ago to notice she was not free ranging with her two friends like she normally does but instead she was inside her coop breathing hard. I separated her into a smaller pen with fresh water and food thinking she just needed some space and...

I replied below but since then she has slowly eaten the soft food but she keeps falling over randomly.

Here is her most recent poo

Is there anything else I can do? I’m fearing we are too late. She keeps falling to one side. I can get her to drink if I put her beak in the water and I also gave her 0.5ml of the corid via syringe. She won’t eat her food even if I mash it with water. I will attach a photo of her poo if she...

Hello! I have 10 weeks old pullets as well as some older hens but we keep them separate still. I have one of my 10 weeks pullets that started becoming very weak. She is constantly sleeping or closing her eyes while standing. She eats and drinks a little but not much compared to the other girls...
