Hello everyone,
I have had chickens for about 3 years, no issues and within a week I've got 3 chickens who are not doing so well. One has bumblefoot, which I am treating, but the other two in kind of lost on how are the best ways to help them.
The first is Franny, she injured her right...
I think I found lice on one of my roos. He's separated from all the other birds (they don't get along) and I don't see any signs of the others having it. They are currently molting though. I wasn't able to check all of them as thoroughly as I wanted. It's way too hot outside. I didn't see any...
Please help!

We opened our coop yesterday to one of our two female ducks having died overnight. We thought she may have been egg bound as she had laid a soft egg 2 afternoons before and there’s one egg every morning so hard to tell who lays it.
Recently the females have been loosing feathers on their back/...
Mites? Lice? Any idea what it is?
I have two coops. I thought my laying hens might have mites due to some suddenly missing feathers at the base of the tail (no rooster). However, looking them over I couldn’t directly see any issues other than the missing feathers. I figured I would check the...
