    Oil of Oregano for Vent Gleet?

    One of my chickens has vent gleet and I’ve been treating with Monistat in and around the vent, and then ACV in the water. I don’t think it’s getting better. I want to give her a tablespoon of yogurt and add a couple drops of oil of oregano. Is this appropriate? Is there anything else I can do?

    My chicken died and I can’t stop thinking about her

    Oh, no. We are a no fragrance family so we don’t have any of that stuff in the house

    My chicken died and I can’t stop thinking about her

    How did you know you had one that died from mites? I think it bothers me that I don’t know. She literally was running to be for treats just a few hours before. Someone had suggested that maybe she was having a hard time with the pellets and to try crumbles. I had ordered some, but maybe it all...

    My chicken died and I can’t stop thinking about her

    Is this normal? It’s not my first chicken that died, but first that died from being sick, or whatever was wrong with her. I unfortunately had some die due to predators. She was a legbar and had a really bad molt that was last for months. Her feathers were taking so long to grow back, but...

    Is this a normal molting?

    I haven’t added anything in but maybe I should? I feel bad for her. She seems cold

    Is this a normal molting?

    She did. I had others that looked almost just a pitiful, but their feathers have grown back

    Is this a normal molting?

    All of my girls molted months ago and everyone’s feathers have grown back, except this one. Is this normal? I’ve increased the protein in their feed. She seems to be eating/pooping/drinking fine, but does hang out in the coop more. She does come out for treats. It does look like more feathers...

    DESPERATE: Chicken Mites in our House??

    Can this happen?? I had started noticing these tiny mite looking bugs on me after I’d go out to the coop. It would be one or 2 and I’d just kill them and didn’t think anything of it. I think I saw maybe 1 on my girls and thought it was just a random bug. But now, my husband and I are getting...

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Before you replied, I dissolved it in water and syringed it to her. I put her back in the cage with water and some treats/food and a fan. I just went back to check on her and she seems to have perked up a bit. Was pecking at the food. More alert, but still pale. I haven’t dealt with a...

    I have calcium citrate plus d3. It’s 650mg of calcium and 25mcg of vitamin d3. It’s also in a huge tablet. How do I give? And how often/how many days?

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    This is her. Ok, i felt her underbelly and it feels squishy, like maybe an egg is stuck? I felt one of my other girls and it definitely feels different

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Is this one ok? Whats the dosing? Do you think that’s what’s wrong with her or something else? I let them out to free range and she came out of her cage but she’s just standing there :(

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Ok, so I haven’t officially, meaning I’ve out ACV in their water and DE in their food. I did just purchase a natural chicken dewormer in the form of a tablet and put it in their water. It does say I can put it down their beak. Should I try that?

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    I’m pretty sure she is, but I can’t imagine that’s causing her to become pale and not really moving, right? The others are molting as well, but not acting the same. It’s just odd how one day she becomes pale and acts like she doesn’t feel well, then the next day her color comes back and she’s...

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    She’s about a year and a half. Their feed is Dumor Organic Layer feed. I also mix in some supplements but have been doing so prior to now. Crop feels fine. Don’t see any mites. She was consistently laying but hasn’t lately, but they are also molting. She does have a spot on each wing that has...

    HELP! What’s wrong with my chicken?

    I have a legbar I’ve been treating for humblefoot for a couple months now. It’s getting better but still working on it. 2 days ago, I cleaned her feet and wrapped them but later that day, she started to act off. Her comb and face were pale and she was just sitting under a bush not moving. I put...
