Hey guys, I’ve just purchased a Golden Laced Orpington from a breeder and brought her home. At the breeder’s home, and in the car on the way back she was in good spirits, chirping away, but upon putting her in quarantine she has developed a sneeze and has a gentle rattling sound to her...
Im currently treating my chicken from coryza and I have water soluble powder of Sulfamethoxazole Trimethoprim and Tylosin with Amoxicillin. Is it safe to mix them in 1 gallon water??

Hi,
My Plymouth Barred Rock has been limping and has rales. Any idea on what's going on?
She has been limping for over a month, and sits under the waterer (nipple type, we installed them on a Home Depot 5-gal bucket) (probably Kestin score of 2-3) and we noticed her breathing was watery (through...
Hello everyone I have an issue with one of my Easter Egger hens. She breathes with a rattle sound. I don’t really think she eats as much as she should. I haven’t noticed her eggs but I do have a lot of chickens so I wouldn’t be sure which one is hers or not. She doesn’t roam the property as much...
