Hi! I have four Astrolorp hens they are over 2 years old. My egg a few weeks ago had a wierd cluster of what looked like eggs in it... nothing unusual since... then this afternoon This egg was laid and I got it still warm as I did hear her lay it, the same kind of eggs on the outside. I would...
I have ducks and chickens living together and am concerned that I have a duck that may have Asper's cough or worm. I wonder if the chickens and ducks can be wormed naturally through feed TOGETHER? For the next few (last days of winter) cannot separate them. Any help is better than none... thanks!

I bought him from someone at the...
