    Bumblefoot

    Hi, I can relate, do you have roosters in your flock? Also wondering the age and breeds of your birds? I have a similar problem, we may be able to help each other🙂

    Hens leg fell off

    Wow. That is wild, like a chicken horror movie. I'm not making fun, just thinking how gnarly it would be to find a little chicken leg lying out in the yard😮 But hey, I've got a Mastiff that only has 3 legs and she's healthy, happy, sassy and can run about 3/4 speed of our other dog. Sounds...

    Bumblefoot: lethargic, dark purple comb, minimal appetite- Help!

    This is really interesting. How do you add the clay to their food? Sorry if this was already talked about. What kind of clay and how much do you use? I have so many questions 😆

    Introducing 18 week old pullets

    With all due respect to anyone else's thoughts- I would put them in permanently and take away the temporary crate.

    panting wheezing chicken

    I've got a rooster who is an "asthmatic" I treat him with VetRx when it gets bad. It never fully goes away but it helps. His wheezing is worse now that allergiy season is here. He's healthy as an Ox other than the weezing.

    Introducing 18 week old pullets

    HI Jennibees, I would put them together, you've done everything right, so now it's up to them to work it out. Hey we know there's gonna be some "ruffled feathers 🤣" but it's time. The only thing I watch out for is if one of the girls gets pecked too much and starts bleeding. But I bet that...

    Conjunctivitis in Chick! Please help!

    Hi, I've only used Terramycin and triple antibiotic cream on eyes before. Both were effective. I've never had a chicken with pink eye but I've had chickens with eye issues before. The triple antibiotic cream without pain killer would most likely be the easiest..we get it at at the dollar...

    Newbie chick mama

    Hi 👋 Will they stay in the structure all of the time or will they be allowed out? Just me, I'd say 4 if full time, 6 if they can get out for an hour or 2. That's just my 1 cent 🙂

    Devastated after first predator attack. Looking for support.

    You're right 2 acres ! Everyone says " oh raccoons are so cute 😍 " NO they aren't. They're evil. Luckily my Mastiff and Great Pyrnees hate raccoons. Sorry if I offend any racoon lovers but they're just evil for chickens. Let me suggest a Great Pyrenees 👍 She LOVES the chickens and at...

    Why no H5N1 vaccine for poultry?

    Dude this is awesome! Serving 'da girls a wee bit of a cuppa tea 🤣 I've heard and seen it all now. No offense meant. Praise Jesus for letting me live past my 30's. He knows I tried not to 🤟 I'm sure I'll get reported..anyhoo- I have never doubted eating one of my own eggs and if it kills me-...

    I have a buddy that has a hen that does this. She crows, doesn't lay and acts like a rooster. Who knows! Well, I'm sure someone does..😉
