    Stuffy beak?

    We have a new hen about 4 months old. I've noticed recently that she has been sneezing a bit (or what sounds like sneezing). Also, when she is roosting and sleeping, she will open her beak to breath every few breaths (seems like a gasp sometimes). Other observations; she is eating great...

    Salmonella??

    Hey all. I have four baby chicks, all about 2-3 weeks old. Starting about a week ago, I’ve been having frequent diarrhea, cramping, and fatigue whilst handling my chicks often. We are thinking it is salmonella since I’ve never gotten sick like this before and it would be quite a coincidence. We...
