    Not sure what's funny about this thread? SMH?

    How does the feed smell? If one container was bad, then there's a good chance the rest is too. I don't know what to tell you.

    Do you have a feed store? Tractor supply carries poultry vitamins or you can order them online - Amazon. Poultry Cell would be a good one to get.

    I'm glad they are feeling better. Have you tried giving Falcon some vitamins to see if those will help? I would still inspect the barrel of feed closely - is it powdery, how does it smell, etc.

    That's really cheep!;) I use either Flock Raiser or an all flock feed. Flock Raiser is $17.49 for 50# and the all flock is $15.99 for 50# I do have to drive an extra 10miles or so for the all flock so.... Of course you pay 6.75% sales tax too!

    How many chickens do you have? You may not even be able to see mold. Do you have a photo of the feed? I understand feed can be expensive and if you run a tight budget your finding the feed being infested can be stressful. You already have 2 pullets that are exhibiting symptoms of illness that...

    I'm no bug or feed expert. It would be good for someone like @ChickenCanoe to chime in. My thoughts are if you find grain mites in feed and should throw it out, why would you not if it has maggots? http://www.scoopfromthecoop.com/poultry-feed-storage-something-you-mite-watch-out-for/

    I understand, but feed that has maggots in it is no good. I agree, it may be moldy as well. Feed can be expensive, but if it has gone bad, then you risk losing birds or at the very least they can all become ill with long term effects.

    That's no good. Can you separate her and provide her with some fresh food and poultry vitamins? A hard boiled or scrambled egg can be given to her, but she needs to be hydrated first. You will want to get fresh feed for all the others as well. An all flock/flock raiser feed would be good to...

    Is she better today? It's very hard to know what's going on with her, but if she's having difficulty walking and her wings won't move, I would be looking at disease like Marek's, nutritional deficiency or possibly moldy feed. Have you checked the feed to see if there's any spots in there that's...

    help! something wrong with chick!

    What does her poop look like? What do you feed? Will she eat/drink on her own? How long have you had her? Can you post some more photos of her - from the front? Can she move her legs, do they respond when you move them or is it like she's paralyzed? Have you checked for any injury, especially...
