My poor sweet Dixie. I feel just awful. Dixie is very sick and I didn't realize it. I'm hoping it's not too late. I brought her in the house on Sunday to give her a bath to see if I could find out what was wrong. Her symptoms:
She is very bloated in her abdominal region.
She had diarrhea...
62 The next day, that is, after the day of Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate 63 and said, “Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days I will rise.’ 64 Therefore order the tomb to be made secure until the third day...
Mark 10:34 ESV
And they will mock him and spit on him, and flog him and kill him. And after three days he will rise.”
1 Peter 2:24 ESV
He himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed.

I live on acreage, surrounded by woods. I love when our hens mingle with the woodland creatures on our property. Come see my new blog post. There are lots of beautiful photos of deer, wild turkeys, and chickens with deer and wild turkeys.
Here's a sample of one of my precious deer! Click...
I can not believe what my chicken did! I have never seen anything like it.
You see her egg shell? It's the pale one on the left. The one on the right is her sisters shell. It's what I found on the inside that has me going "Hmmmmmmmm". I have a REALLY talented bird in my flock!! Click...

I know that it's been so long since I've participated on BYC that many of you probably don't even know me anymore!! I used to be a passionate blogger, but life got busy and I've been MIA for almost a year! Well, I've actually posted 2 new posts on my blog. One is titled "God and Chickens"...

Is it safe to give to my hens? It is made with extra light olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic powder. I would imagine it would be okay but just wanted to make sure. I just had a party and have lots of salad left over.
Thanks in advance!!

She is sneezing and her breathing is raspy. She is foraging nicely and seems to be doing fine otherwise. She'll be a year old April 5th. I've never had a sick chicken. There is a TSC near where I live. Any recommendations on what I can get from them to help her??
Thanks,

I went out this morning to clean the coop (my daughter had let them out of the coop before she left for school). Dixie is at the top of the pecking order (3 Buff Orpingtons total). Here is what I encountered when I went out there.
My girls have never been sick or injured (they will be...
