    Fully formed chicks in eggs under 2 hens never hatched.

    Wow, I bet your little chick with 7 moms was overwhelmed! Fortunately my two moms each claimed one of the 2 chicks even though they free ranged and slept together. Very interesting dynamic! Anyhow i plan to take your advice about community nest incubation. It sounds like that might be the...

    Diarrhea, lost weight, weak, wobbly hen

    Thanks for all your suggestions. I have always suspected the problem might be reproductive issues since she was always prone to being egg bound. She also had a prolapsed vent which i put back inside.

    I have tried do many things with her. I tried the sour crop treatment again today. Full crop last night. No food or water overnight. I massaged her crop this morning. It was about half full and i could here some sloshing in there. No fould smell from her beak.

    Layer feed, meal worms, oats, scratch every day. Veggies like cabbage and tomatoes from time to time. She is free range.
