    Egg bound??

    Thank you. I might still soak her. I am not worried about their food. If they don't want the seeds they pick them out. They also free range and get some fruits and vegetables. I do give them bread tho. I think might try the sugar water also. She normally lays later in the day so hoping she lays...

    Egg bound??

    I would say she is a little more firmer than the other hens I checked. Not a lot just enough to notice. I feed them purina all flock but I mix it will black oil sun flower seeds. I feed them from feeders from tractor supply but I also have a storage container with chicken feeders attached. She...

    Is this normal?

    I had a chick born still attached to umbilical cord and the shell. It came off by its self but the chicks belly looks swollen and bruised. Is this normal? It just crawls around and seems more tired than the others. It's dry now but the other chicks are trampling it.

    Prolapse

    I noticed my hen had a prolapse last night. This morning I gave her a bath. It looks like it's been out for while. I sprayed vetericyn on it but didn't put it back in. Do I need to remove the part that looks black? I am going to separate her.

    It's Marek's. How long does she have?

    You are fine, i dont mind at all. From what I have read it's most common from 6 to 30 weeks but can happen at any age and even to vaccinated chickens. It can also show up as pretty much anything bc it attacks the nerves. So really no chicken is safe. I hope it is a vitamin deficiency in your...

    It's Marek's. How long does she have?

    It might be a vitamin deficiency. I would try the selenium with vitamin e but would still keep giving the vitamin b.

    It's Marek's. How long does she have?

    It took 1-2 month after the first hen for the others to start showing signs. I was praying it wasn't marek's but necropsy said it was. She is the only one to survive so far. I would do the b complex for 2 weeks. I would also add selenium with vitamin e. You can get it from tractor supply in a...

    It's Marek's. How long does she have?

    I had a hen paralyzed for about 3 months and lived. I kept her in the house. I gave her a vitamin b complex pill everyday, poultry cell in eggs and selenium with vitamin e. I would also massage her legs a few times everyday and stretch them out. I also made her a sling with a storage bin so she...
