    Orange spots in my pellets

    I usually buy my Kalmbach feed from my feed store, but it was going to be a couple weeks until my order came in and I was running low. Chewy was having a special and the cost per bag was going to be very close to the price I pay at my feed store, so I ordered 3 bags. I fed it today and I noticed...

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Finished her last dose (correct amount) this morning and sent her outside! She was scheduled to be done last night but we did one more this morning for good measure. We had been keeping her inside mostly and just putting her out with the flock from 4 or 5 pmish until bed and then bringing her in...

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Thank you! Both eyes have been bubbly but 90% of the time it is just the one and that comes and goes. I got some pictures. I did press around the bad eye and I believe pus came out. I wiped it and applied Terramycin. Gave the correct dose today of Tylan. 1.4 cc 2x a day. Pulled gently on the...

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Great info and link. Thank you! Both eyes have been bubbly so I could only guess mycoplasma but since no one else is sick....no idea. Maybe I should think about a different med. 🤔

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Well, she's crated in the house. We took her saddle off and she seems to be happy about that. To be honest we're having a hard time getting medicine in her. The first 2 doses were okay but since then she's fighting us. I need a trick. We've only been successful once a day the last couple of...

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Thank you! We have started our treatment plan. I did actually make my own - I covered and boiled water for 15 minutes and ended up with a half a cup - put a half teaspoon of salt in that once it cooled. I irrigated the eye with that using a needleless syringe. Then I applied Terramycin in and...

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Thank you! I bought nasal saline but ultimately decided not to use it because it is not pure and has chemical preservatives in it. So I just used neosporin. I'll make my own saline tomorrow. Yes, the photo wasn't very good. 😣Should have brought her inside to take it.

    Possible eye injury/infection

    Please see picture. Background: About a month ago I noticed some wetness in my EE's beard and one of her eyes was bubbly and her nose seemed runny. I researched, thought it might be Mycoplasma, then the symptoms were gone wuthin an hour. No one else in the flock had this problem. A couple weeks...

    Sitting in box but not laying - not broody

    Yes very odd! 2/3 eggs in 3 weeks or so. Yes everyone else is laying, even my broody sapphire gem. She's probably about to go in a box and not come out I imagine! But my EE that's not laying, Yes she's acting normal but I have to say, my rooster prefers her and that may be stressing her out.

    Sitting in box but not laying - not broody

    Thank you. Changing the feed has me so freaked out. I think I'm going to switch back to layer feed. 😳

    Sitting in box but not laying - not broody

    I can't find any info on this so I'm hoping you guys can help. I have 2 EEs. One has been having calcium deposits on one end of her eggs for a couple of weeks. I recently put my hens and rooster on a 20% grower feed with oyster shell out and I have to say, this phenomenon seems to coincide with...

    Feed mills in Florida?

    I am actually sort of familiar with that one. I used to feed central states to my horses. 😁

    Feed mills in Florida?

    Thank you! I have looked at Kalmbach. Wanted to add that my birds are all full grown and the only reason I'm looking for all flock is because I have a rooster. I don't want him eating layer feed and I can put out calcium. Would 20% be appropriate for laying hens? I haven't looked into protein...

    Feed mills in Florida?

    Thank Thank you!! Went from 4 hens to 8 hens and a rooster since I last posted. 😁 I looked up both of those. Trying to find an organic all flock pellet. I've spent hours scouring the web. Any advice?
