    7 month old hen underweight and lethargic. Not sure what to do?

    She passed way in my arms on Tuesday evening at 5:25 pm. I noticed she had mites all over her back while trying to rinse her bum and do a magnesium bath. It was all around awful and I was just too late💔

    Also, it’s raspberry juices on the potty pad, not blood.

    7 month old hen underweight and lethargic. Not sure what to do?

    I didn’t put her back outside last night or today because she only wants to eat, sleep and drink. I put a little Fenbadazole and Pantacox in her water. I’ve been giving her extra protein and calcium along with her regular pellets and oyster shells. Her comb goes from pink to red. I’ve been...

    7 month old hen underweight and lethargic. Not sure what to do?

    Thank you so much! She looks worse today. Her comb is pale, she was moving her head oddly and she does get bullied. I am getting Pantacox and Fendbendazole. I brought her inside wrapped her in a towel and cuddling her! I gave her food and water with electrolytes in it. She ate the meal worms...

    7 month old hen underweight and lethargic. Not sure what to do?

    I have a ‘runt’ hen, she’s 7 1/2 months old. She’s always been the smallest, she’s also the youngest by 6 weeks. She’s, what I was told, a Columbian Plymouth Rock. She’s smaller but more shockingly, she’s much lighter than the other 7 hens (2-14 months old (GLW), 5-10 month old (3 GLW, 2 Blue...

    Something seems off about my cockerel, please help.

    Thank you! I have a dish next to the layer feed of oyster shell. I appreciate your reply! They do actually rummage through the compost pile sometimes which includes chicken poo and other compostables like fruit/veg scraps, pine shavings etc. Thank you! I’ll buy the ivermectin tomorrow and look...

    Something seems off about my cockerel, please help.

    Thank you so much! Can I give them the wormer myself or does a vet need to administer it? How do they contract the worms? I’m worried because my husband trapped a rat running along our back fence a week or 2 ago.

    He eats Dumor chick starter 20% food. I give them all sorts of fresh veggies and fruits, tuna sometimes, egg sometimes. Water changes multiple times a day. 4 waterers for 11 chickens. They free roam 8am-8pm. They also have limited access to their sisters Dumor Layer feed 16%. I do try to...

    Something seems off about my cockerel, please help.

    I have 3 roosters that are 13 weeks old (also 5 hens that age). One of my roos has been acting ‘off’ since this morning. He looks droopy, separating himself from the flock. I gave electrolytes in all 4 of their waterers, fresh food daily with treats of fresh fruits and veggies. This is my first...

    How old do you think these babies are?

    Hi everyone! I got these 2 chicks 12 days ago, the lady said they are Columbian Plymouth Rock. I was actually buying 2, 4 week old Blue Plymouth Rock chicks from her but then she said I needed to take both sets if I wanted them. (I imagined they were also 4 weeks) I agreed because I had been...

    Hello!! I went through that about 6 weeks ago! Took me about 2 weeks to get and build it, still doing things to better it day by day. When do you get your chicks? Do you know what breeds yet? Very exciting!
