Right, when I realize this I hear a chicken sound from behind the nest box (it has been pushed from the wall a little) and I find the missing bird. after I move her to push the box back up to the wall I see...

    Oops... I got a rooster!

    Thank you, everyone! it seems flock feed and oyster shells it is! Not like it's hard to set up two bowls anyways. Could be better for the girls as well. They can choose if they need more calcium or not on their own. I let a broody hen raise these chicks in my house and she only ate raiser feed...

    My chicken at something she can't pass from a pan.

    That sounds really scary. I just took another to the vet for sour crop so I have no money left. If I did decide to do that would you call?

    My chicken at something she can't pass from a pan.

    That makes me feel better. She ate it 3 or 4 days ago. does that change anything on the prognosis? it's about the size of a human thumb. A hair is bigger because it's the thumb part of the handle that you put your thumb onto.

    Chicken may have eaten something she cant pass.

    SOOO scary. She is the coolest chicken around. :( fingers crossed! Hope she just played with it like I have seen them do with other things. Is there no way it can just pass through? I don't know how the crop and gizzard work. ;-; The thing she may have eaten is the size of a thumb. I heard small...

    Chicken may have eaten something she cant pass.

    She ate a rubber or silicon piece from a pan (the thumb bit on the handle of a pan) They must have pulled it off and I'm unsure if they just played with it or ate it. it's about the size of a thumb and probably silicone. Will this pass? Should I expect to see it in poop? I'm not sure the grits...
