    Hatchery chicks with round worms

    How do you manage iced water?

    I am home all day with my girls so I a few times a day go outside with a gallon of water and give them some fresh drinkable water in the runs. Most days the flocks free range and we used a large heated water bowl last year. Not sure if we will do the same. I did read in this thread that the...

    Round worms dead in coop?

    Oh interesting... thank you. Not seeing any other signs in the coop or run nor do the hens show any signs of issues. I wonder if it died inside as it was dead when I found it.
