Hi Barbara, thank you very much for sharing your story with us. You seem to be very compassionate with your chickens, we like that :) Since the beginning of our pullet being sick, we did not separate her from the other 4. We also think that she benefits more being with them. One in...

This is exactly why we wanted to come here first: the experienced people! Thank's a lot for your answer. The selenium you are talking about, is it regular selenium vitamins for human? I'm also concerned about her spreading it to our other 4 chickens... We have one the same age (ameraucana) and 3...

Thank you for your answer. We are worrying because it's been a little over than a week now and it has gotten worse, not better... We are not letting her out of the coop so she can rest... :\

Ok, thank you for your quick response. I will look into that. I can create additionnal openings in the top of the coop for better ventilation, and hope humidity will drop a bit in the coming days. I'll keep the bedding as dry as possible. Yesterday, she 'insisted' in sleeping perched on the...

Hi, it's been a couple of very hot and humid days here south of Montreal. Around 30-40 with humidex factor. This may be related or not, but one of my Ameraucana started (what seems like to be) looking for air... She opens her mouth and breath with effort. She is not really interested in...

Hi from St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, 30 mins south of Montreal, Qc. I'm totally new here, although I came often for ideas for my coop (I'll post pictures soon!), and I have quite a lot of (basic) questions. I'm not sure it is the right thread to do so, but I'll just try with 2... : 1. I'm looking...
