I had a great time yesterday at the swap! You had a great turnout and and much to choose from! Special thanks to the nice lady behind the petting zoo under the tree who sold me the d'uccle hen. I am so happy that I have one like her now, she was just what I was looking for! I look forward to...

Will anyone be having fancy bantam hens/pullets for sale? Japs, sebrights, seramas, polish, rhode island, leghorns, cochins, frizzles? Am looking to get some for the upcoming show season ! Also will be looking for some smaller cages as well.

I have a cochin hen that went broody and after her hatch she decided to stay broody and lost much of her body weight and doesn't have very much meat left on her. my poor girl is almost just skin and bones. I have her eating the layer feed and drinking water normally now, but is there anything I...

Anyone? She still hasn't improved!!

I have an 9 month old bantam cochin frizzle that has been acting weird and sick since last night. She was moving slow and lethargic yesterday and when we picked her up and put her down she sort of "bounced" right up of the ground and rolled around until she was on her side and scruntched up. I...

Saw the article about this mention in the News Journal today! It looks like this may pass! When will they be voting yay or nay about it? http://www.news-journalonline.com/news/local/west-volusia/2012/06/03/deltona-to-consider-allowing-backyard-chickens.html Congrats!

Good luck, I live (unfortunantly..) there too and would support it too.

Thanks all for your help. Unfortunantly, she/he didn't make it. She was gone when I got home today. It had a good life when it did under mama then the brooder <3 I did what I could though. There's more with the mama and I heard peeping when I was out thereeee ! Thanks again for your help!

Yes..as of this morning. It seems to be a little trooper, it slept throught the night and was awake this morning. She still can't stand up, but it will move around. I'm still puzzled about the extremity on her bottom. Upon closer look it isn't coming out of the vent (the prolapse was, but I'm...

Another update:She doesn't look good . Upon closer look she has it looks like her intestines (worm like thing protruding from her vent) prolapsing with a little bit of blood. I also noticed one of its eyes and and beak are not opened yet. It is possible that she may have hatched too early and...

Update: the sac broke off, theres a little bit of fluid falling off its bottom, but she seems to be ok. Theres still a small prolapse type thing coming out of her vent, wondering if I should see if she lives, let her dry off, the add some antibiotics?

Here it is when I found him the sac has since bursted. I'll go get another pic.

Yes. the mother silkie is still setting on some "eggs" (two more are fertile and her own are not because she's not with a roo) and is being pretty protective right now. She actually was sitting on the egg while it hatched and the shell and chick when he was out and I saw this and took it away...

Update the prolapse sac brusted open!!! I think it may have kicked it and burst it. Some fluids cam out but it now has sort of "sac" looking things hanging from the vent. What should I do???

ttt I would post pics but it wont let me!!!

This little guy/gal hatched today from underneath a broody hen with a huge prolapse from it's bottom! It's about half the size of a banty egg and sort of looks like the yolk. this is the forst time I've hatched/let a broody hen sit and I really would like and try to save it! This isn't the...

One more thing: Can the Tylan 50 injectible medication be dissolved in their waterer and be drank??? I don't have local access to the powder. If so, how much should I be giving per gallon? Thanks.
