    My Choking Chicken - video

    Hello, I’m just putting this out there for you to watch to show how I tried to help my chicken. I am trying to upload video but it will only allow me to upload a photo, am I missing something? Initially, I was with the guinea pigs watching them forage for the first time and that’s why I was...

    Possible gapeworm? Middle of molting and have chicks

    Hello, and sorry to hear about your chicken. A rehomed chicken I had had gapeworm, but by the time I figured out what it was, the treatment didn't work and she wound up passing. I think there were a bunch and they died and she couldn't 'cough' them out. I keep a journal now, but I did not when...

    Help with wild doves in my barn!

    They’re not, they have two stalls to sleep in, but they roam the pasture and hang out with the chickens and rabbits in another stall if they want to get out of the sun, they have lots of room :)

    What’s Wrong with Karen’s Eye?

    Hello :) I have a 9 month old hen, a Blue Wyandotte or Orphington named Karen. She grew up with a lavender Orphington, her bff, Lovey. Lovey got sick back in March but Karen did not. I isolated Lovey and after Lovey got better and she was well enough to go back with our flock, that’s when...

    Purina Farm to Flock feed?

    Just want to add my experience: My flock have been eating the Harvest Blend for about 8 months and yes, absolutely, they pick out only what they want to eat, but they have an acre of property they walk around on to forage and sometimes they fly out of their area and come up to the house to eat...

    Starving Pullet

    Hi! Thanks for responding! That is gapeworm. I had a full grown chicken that I took in who had it. We had no idea what she was doing with her mouth, and I finally figured it out. After I figured it out, I medicated her a bunch of times and it didn’t help. We had her for over a year and while she...

    Starving Pullet

    And my mistake, she is 12 weeks old. I also don’t know what breed she is, I think she’s an Easter Egger because I’m looking at the sales receipt and she is not a lavender Orphington, a blue lace red wyandotte, a black Astrolorp or a blue Astrolorp. Those are the chicks I purchased, all have a...

    Starving Pullet

    Hello, I have been nursing a 18-20 week old pullet the past week and a half. I found her lying down and barely moving one morning, I also noticed she had lime green poop. Wasn’t sure what the issue was. At the same time, I had broken my toe so I was trying to nurse us both. When I picked her...

    What to do about Voracious Chickens

    Hello all, last month we expanded our flock and brought home five chickens who we were told were egg layers. When we pulled up to the woman’s home/business, we should have turned right around. Her coops were dirty and flocks seemed traumatized. I just thought it was our presence, but when we...

    Crows harassing our flock!

    Thank you all, I sincerely appreciate the advice! The coop itself is a large, enclosed room in the pole barn with hardware cloth covering all the open parts. We live in SW Florida and we need all the ventilation we can get. The inly way a crow can get in. AND DID get in, is through the...

    Crows harassing our flock!

    I know everyone thinks the crows are great, and I’ve never had a problem with them. I love the cute stories! But for some reason the crows in this area harass us instead of helping. I’ve heard a lot of caw caw cawing but ignored it until last week when I went outside and saw two crows in the...

    What is this I keep finding in their poop?*Graphic*

    Wow, thank you for all that information, I really appreciate it! I am spending the entire day out in the yard so I will be mindful and look for the offending poop and stick it in the fridge. I looked up the lab and will give them a call tomorrow. I did not know I should only give them the...
