Thank you Finnie, it took a couple years but I was finally able to find some good ones

Hey all, been inactive for a bit, but am here to let ya know that I have some very nice New Hampshire stock now. My profile pic is a example of one, so if anyone is interested in some hatching eggs shoot me a DM. I'm planning to hatch some in about a month, but after that I'm up for helping out...

Thanks @Leahs Mom, I never conclusively determined what was wrong with her. But a concussion seems like the most likely scenario. I don’t think it was mareks or another disease because 1. No other hens have showed any symptoms at all and 2. She didn’t seem to grow worse over the last week she...

Thanks @Chaneys Ranch

Sadly I had to euthanize my hen earlier today, she had grown steadily worse over the past week. I suspect now that she had a severe concussion plus coccidiosis. Thanks so much for all of your support and advice.:)

I know how you feel, been getting one egg a day for the last week. And for two months before that none at all!:he

@pipdzipdnreadytogo she’s maybe doing a bit better this morning, I gave her two hot epsom salt baths yesterday. I’m beginning to think she might not be eggbound. I read they usually don’t make it past 48 hours if they don’t pass the egg, and it been more than 72.

Just gave her about 5 tums crushed up in her water. Hopefully it helps.

I am going to try the warm water treatment shortly, and I will try giving her some oyster shells. Thanks @pipdzipdnreadytogo!

I’m not sure if it’s her crop, shes been eating an drinking normally and I don’t notice any sour smells.

Hoping it’s not marek’s disease.:fl

No word yet, I’ve got her quarantined and am going to try the hot water method tomorrow to make sure she’s not eggbound.

thanks I will post it there as well.

She also falls onto her chest if she is set down on the ground.

Hey guys, sry for not getting on in a while. But I was wondering if you guys have seen this with your hens. I have a small hen who is about 1 year old, she’s been fine until today when I found her laying on her side not wanting to move. I checked for broken legs or bumble foot, but nothing. It...

nice buck! :thumbsup

lol, i will try not to shoot for any of my chickens, unless i have to cull a rooster ;)

thanks @jchny2000 this should give me an idea on what to shoot for!

Hi everyone, just getting on to ask if any of yall know of a good chicken breeding resource book? i have a flock of 12 hens and 1 cock, all new hamps, and i'm wanting to start breeding them closer to the standard. So if any of you know of some good books that lay out the basics of chicken...

And guess what, I got 1st, 2nd, and 3rd at the county fair. But of course i was the only new hamp there.
