Ch 1
June knew she had a mother, just she was busy doing more important things. That was her excuse for utter silence, except a few pitiful chirps, when she called out to her. June needed to know she was safe; The reddish-black, wet darkness was suffocating. There was nothing to tell...

Around 4 months ago our next door neighbor sprayed roundup on our fence base to kill off weeds. Ever since then we've been having chickens die mysteriously. Most of them seem to have breathing issues and then stop eating. We've always had a healthy flock before. We gave Sulmet to a couple sick...
My D'Uccle, Penny seems to have an eye infection. It's been this way for a week and today we just started putting Saint John's Wart oil (antimicrobial and pain reducing) on her eye. She's not eating so we gave her a dilution of goldenseal, tumeric powder, echinacea tincture and evening primrose...
I was wondering what your method is for getting rid of chickens (mostly roos) besides killing them. Craigslist is usually not very affective with me and sometimes I try selling my birds in front of stores...which isn't very enjoyable. Also I was wondering what prices I should sell my birds for...

Hi there. I have this one little sebright mix chick and it seems to be kind going lame. About a week or so ago it started laying down a lot and stretching out it's wings like it was having a hard time balancing. A week later it doesn't lay down any more eats a fair amount but hasn't grown any...
I have a silkie hen sitting on 4 quail eggs. I candled them and they seem to be growing. They are just the normal sort of wild quails that I sometimes see marching down the road with a line of babies behind them. Anyways my friend found a nest of quail eggs with a dead mother quail by it...

I got a Polish chicken that is about 2 months old with weepy eyes. Well today it's friends were out and scratching around and she was standing all puffed up, she wouldn't come out of the coop in the morning. Her eye was very weepy, so weepy in fact that the eye was sealed up. She seemed to be...
