    Mareks?

    Thank you for responding. To answer your questions: She hasn’t laid any eggs, but then again she wasn’t laying very many, if any, before she became ill. Her abdomen feels normal. Her poop started out to be very runny, but is now normal. I put Vitamin B in her food this morning as you...

    Feed inside or outside or both?

    Hello, We are brand new to the urban chicken scene and are wondering about placement of the feed. In the viewing of hundreds of pictures and reading many books, I haven't figured out if chickens need their food both inside the coop and outside in the run. I'd prefer to just have it inside...
