So, the final update of the week = success. I did push it a little because of the weather we are expecting as the day goes on, but was lucky. Now my six girls can all curl up together tonight as our temps plummet after a pretty good weather week. There was zero fighting, just a few normal...

Getting even better :) Now I have 3 vs 3 Team Ree-Ree and Team Sweet Girl I'm going to let them stay out in the coops tonight and then tomorrow I will introduce the next one, and keep my fingers crossed :)

Hi NatJ, So, I managed to introduce one other hen to her so far - with no issues, very nice behaviors and they are just doing their thing. I now will start moving the other lowbies in and monitor - probably one more later this afternoon after she lays. I am still bringing her in at night, but...

Welcome! I’m considering adding 3 dwarf goats to my collection this spring - just want to make sure I’m not biting off more than I can chew before doing so :)

This I love, and I think will work. Right now, we have sectioned the Run in 1/2 and she is outside enjoying her dust bath today - made me happy to see that. I threw a bunch of treats for everyone as we put her into her side, and she walked over to the fence and stood her ground (through the...

My neighbor told me to just throw one of his smaller roosters in with them and he will sort it out. Ugh

Oh boy - so I was concerned that my quarantine girl would have a little trouble being reintroduced but oh boy. My flock is full of little jerks. So yeah I feel like garbage because it didn’t go well and they even drew blood - so rescued her from the little jerks and she’s back inside. We have...

Update on my little girl. I've treated her with a full run of antibiotics (5 days) (amtyl) and decided to throw in a dewormer just because. I can't believe what I found in her little quarantine enclosure today - a freaking lash egg. EW. But wow, I'm so grateful to have been treating her with...

She looks like an ameraucana to me - which means EE lol (I think) Ameraucana

I appreciate the information - very much. She is acting just fine, eating away, pooping, (all the poops look great - did I just say that...). I'll keep her indoors for the rest of the week, away from the rest of them. [My husband will be thrilled]. Thank you for the encouragement :)

Her face looks normal to me, she just seems pale (compared to the others) and sneezes, wheezes. thats a pic of her from a few moments ago.

Hi :) Thanks for the response. I'm in the US. She sneezes, wheezes and overall her color was pale. None of my other girls have any symptoms, so I have quarantined her for the time being. I had started her on 125 mg 2 x a day amoxicillin (since Friday). Her wheezing is still noticeable, but...

I just wanted to wish you some peace in your nightmare that you went through. The worst thing is not knowing and I've beaten myself up plenty time and time again when I can't fix one of my chicks. Really sorry you went through this.

Here is a better pic of her silly beak.

mildly, yes lol.

Best I can do right now, is give you a shot of my quarantine girl. Her name is Ree-Ree.

Hi! I'm so confused. I spent some time researching the use of Amtyl (amoxicillin & Tylosin) 150/100 and the bottle in red states, "not for food producing animals'. So, why are we using it? I mean, I eat my chickens eggs - but whenever I do a course of antibiotics I stay away from the eggs for...

Hello everyone! After more than a year of constantly finding myself on this forum, I have decided to join (lol). I find myself here whenever I want to know if my problem is normal/abnormal; what other folks are doing for their chickens. Sometimes just like reading the forums because it makes...
